British man to be arraigned for killing wife, daughter

A former Hopkinton, Mass., man charged with killing his wife and nine-month-old daughter is scheduled for arraignment at 9 this morning in Middlesex Superior Court, Cambridge, Mass.

Neil Entwistle, 27, has been indicted on two counts of murder, and one count each of illegal possession of a firearm and illegal possession of ammunition.

The police say Entwistle shot his wife, Rachel, and their daughter, Lillian. Their bodies were discovered Jan. 22 in their Hopkinton home after family and friends became concerned and contacted the police.

Entwistle was arrested Feb. 9 in his native England and brought back to the United States. He is being held without bail. He pleaded innocent to charges in District Court and was indicted March 28, shifting the case to Superior Court.
