Funeral Held For Slain Mother, Baby

PLYMOUTH, Mass. -- Friends and family gathered at a Catholic church in Plymouth to pay their last respects to a young mother and child Wednesday.

NewsCenter 5's Gail Huff reported that Rachel Entwistle, 27, and her 9-month-old daughter, Lillian, were found shot to death in their Hopkinton home on Jan. 22.

A funeral Mass was held at St. Peter's Catholic Church in Plymouth. Police escorted the funeral procession to the church from Shepherd Funeral Home in Kingston.

Mother and baby will be buried together in a single casket in Kingston. Just months ago, Lillian was baptized in the same church.

Rachel's family did not invite her husband Neil Entwistle, 27, to the funeral. He has been at his family's home in Worksop, England since Jan. 21 and did not attend the wake. The calling hours were extended at Kingston's Shepherd Funeral Home because so many people came to pay their respects.

Entwistle is still being called a "person of interest." In order to bring him back to the U.S., authorities would have to seek a warrant for his extradition from Great Britain.

Investigators towed Entwistle's BMW from the Logan International Airport garage so it can be examined at the police department. Several boxes of evidence taken from the Entwistles' rented home have been impounded at Framingham District Court.

Detectives continue to look for the small-caliber handgun used to shoot Rachel and Lillian Entwistle.
