Bail has been set for the 85-year-old Annandale man who was jailed last week for the murder of his wife of 65 years.
Rodney Allen Andersen appeared before the Honorable Geoffrey Tenney in Wright County District Court on Sept. 13 on the charge of 2nd degree intentional homicide of Janet Louise Anderson.
At the request of Wright County Attorney Brian Lutes, bail was set in the amount of $1,000,000 with conditions or $3,000,000 without conditions.
According to the complaint, Andersen called 911 Thursday morning, Sept. 12, to report that he had stabbed his wife and placed the knife in the sink. He also stated he was unsure if she was alive.
