Neil Entwistle’s Horrible Crime and Terrible Cover Up

Neil Entwistle moved from the UK to Massachusetts with his American wife and young daughter. However, when the police arrived at their house one day to discover a horrific scene, Neil was nowhere to be found. He was discovered back in the UK, and knew full well what had happened.

I remember when my sisters were both about 6 and 7, they stole some candy from K-Mart. My mom found out (she had a nose on her like a bloodhound) and turned the car around and we went back to the store. Marched us all back inside and made my sisters apologize to the cashier and the store manager, then paid for the candy. (We were poor - candy was NEVER purchased so this really screwed us.) My poor mom was so upset, wondering what she'd done wrong that two of her kids would steal candy. She could barely speak, and looked simultaneously like she was going to strangle them both and burst into tears. To think that not one, but both of Neil's parents cannot see ANY of what he's done (escorts, no job, yet spending money like there is no tomorrow, scamming people, lying to his family, and murdering his own child and wife) is astonishing.

I think maybe they teach in law school that if you find yourself defending a client accused of the double murder of his wife & adorable infant daughter and that client starts visibly guffawing while listening to the trial testimony, you have two options - either stand up and yell out, my client is not guilty by reason of a sudden onset of insanity, or, you just start deleting old pix on yr phone till somebody tells you the guilty verdict's been announced and you can go on home.
