Neil Entwistle

Neil Entwistle (September 18, 1978) is the husband of Rachel Entwistle and father of Lillian Entwistle and is charged with their murder. English-born Neil and American-born Rachel were married on Sunday, August 10, 2003 in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

Although the murders happened on January 20, 2006 the bodies of 27-year-old Rachel and 9-month-old Lillian were not found until January 22, in the master bedroom of the couple's rented Hopkinton, Massachusetts home where the Entwistles had moved into just ten days earlier. Autopsy results showed the mother died of a gunshot wound to the head and the baby died of a gun shot to the stomach.

Hours after their deaths, Entwistle bought a one-way ticket to London about 5:00 a.m. EST on the morning of January 21, and boarded a British Airways flight that left at 8:15 a.m.

On January 23, Hopkinton Police rang Entwistle at his parents Clifford and Yvonne's home in Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England. They say he told them that he left his Hopkinton home at around 9:00 a.m. EST three days previously to go on an errand. He told them both his wife and daughter were in bed. When he returned at around 11:00 a.m. EST, he says he found they had been shot dead and covered their bodies with a blanket.

He didn't call 911, but instead decided to kill himself. Unable to bring himself to end his life with a knife, he then got in the family car and drove to his father-in-law Joseph Materazzo's house to get a .22 handgun. Finding the house locked, he then decided to fly to England and see his parents.

However, as well as confirming that a set of keys to Materazzo's house were found in the car Entwistle parked at Boston's Logan Airport before his flight, DNA matching Entwistle was found on the handle of a .22 handgun owned by Materazzo. In addition, DNA matching his slain wife Rachel was found on the gun's muzzel.

Entwistle appeared in court after being arrested in London on February 9. At a brief central London Bow Street magistrates court hearing, he requested not be sent back to the US ”at this stage”. Saying little else - except confirmation of his name, age, and address - he was then remanded in custody until a hearing the following day.

However, he changed his mind overnight. At a three-minute Bow Street hearing infront of Judge Nicholas Evans, Entwistle's lawyer Judith Seddon said he had decided to agree to being returned to the US as soon as possible. Just a few hours later, a Home Office minister signed Entwistle's extradition order.

Outside the court afterwards, Yale Law School-educated Seddon - who did not indicate whether her client intended to plead guilty - told reporters: "He has consented at the earliest opportunity because he wants to cooperate with the authorities in any way that he can.

"He's anxious that a delay may cause his late wife's family, and his own, additional distress. He believes he will receive a fair and proper hearing in the United States on these very serious allegations."

She added that Entwistle "had always been inclined to consent" to an extradition request.

Local officers interviewed the couple from 10:00 a.m. while a Metropolitan Police team arrived about lunchtime and left with black bin liners containing undisclosed items taken from the garage and house where he previously lived with brother Russell.
