LANCASTER – A judge from Adams County revoked a Lancaster County man’s bail, sending him back to prison. The Commonwealth filed a motion to revoke Jere Bagenstose’s bail and return him to county prison following the PA Supreme Court’s ruling in Commonwealth v. Yard. Senior Judge John Kuhn granted the motion. Bagenstose of Pequea Township returned to prison Monday morning. He had been charged in December 2022 with criminal homicide for the 1984 murder of his wife, Maryann Bagenstose, and was originally committed to Lancaster County Prison without bail. In May 2023, bail was set at $925,000 and Bagenstose was released after posting a bail bond. Bail was set at that time due to the PA Supreme Court’s decision in Commonwealth v. Talley, which required the trial judge to hold a hearing to determine whether bail should be set in the Bagenstose case. The case is scheduled for trial in March 2025.
