Hingham Apple Store Crash Suspect Has Bail Revoked

Prosecutors say the move follows an alleged probation breach tied to an alcohol-monitoring bracelet and could heighten scrutiny of the case’s pretrial supervision.

Overview

  • Bradley Rein remains charged with second-degree murder and motor vehicle homicide and has pleaded not guilty to allegations over the SUV that drove into the Hingham Apple Store.
  • Authorities say his bail was revoked after prosecutors accused him of violating probation rules related to an alcohol-monitoring bracelet he is required to wear.
  • Rein’s release has faced earlier problems when a GPS ankle monitor twice lost power and left probation officers unable to track him, leading to prior revocations.
  • The 2019 Toyota 4Runner crashed through the store’s front glass, killing customer Kevin Bradley and injuring multiple people while bystanders and workers gave first aid.
  • Prosecutors say Rein told police his foot got stuck on the accelerator and that toxicology found no drugs or alcohol, and the defense maintains the crash was an accident as the case moves back to court.
