BOSTON - A British man accused of killing his wife and infant daughter in their suburban Boston home before fleeing to England returned to Massachusetts to face murder charges.


 
Neil Entwistle, handcuffed and in leg shackles, was escorted by law enforcement officers Wednesday from a small jet after it arrived from England at an Air Force base outside Boston. He was driven to the police station in suburban Hopkinton for booking.

Entwistle was scheduled to be arraigned Thursday in Framingham District Court on two counts of first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of his wife, Rachel, 27, and 9-month-old daughter Lillian on Jan. 20.

Entwistle's lawyer, Elliot M. Weinstein, met with him at the police station Wednesday night. He said he was concerned that the case has generated such media interest that it would be difficult for Entwistle to get a fair trial. Entwistle plans to plead not guilty, his attorney said.

"From that moment forward all of our efforts will be to see that he receives the fairest of trials with the expectation of him being exonerated and held to be innocent for that which he is now charged," Weinstein said.

The parents and grandparents of his alleged victims, Priscilla and Joseph Matterazzo, planned to attend the hearing, said Joseph Flaherty, a family spokesman.

In court documents, law officers have describe Entwistle as a secretive man who was sinking into debt. The documents say that in the days before the killings, he trolled the Internet looking for sexual partners and information on ways to kill people and commit suicide.

Search warrant affidavits filed by law enforcement officials in the U.S. describe how Rachel Entwistle's relatives called police after the couple organized a dinner party but did not answer their door when guests arrived.

Officers discovered the bodies on Jan. 22, and found Entwistle's white BMW sport utility vehicle parked at Logan International Airport, in Boston.

Middlesex District Attorney Martha Coakley said authorities believe Entwistle used his father-in-law's .22-caliber handgun in the shootings, and may have planned to turn the weapon on himself because of his mounting debts.

Instead of committing suicide, he drove the gun back to his father-in-law's house, then fled to his native England, authorities allege.

Entwistle met Rachel Souza, a Holy Cross student from Kingston, in 1999 at Britain's University of York, in northern England, where she was spending the year abroad.

The couple married in 2003 and lived in England. In April 2005, Lillian was born. The couple moved to Carver in southeastern Massachusetts last summer and lived with Rachel's relatives.

Last month, the family moved into a Colonial-style home they rented in Hopkinton.

Ten days later, the mother and daughter were found dead
