British man gets life in deaths of wife, baby

? A British man convicted of shooting to death his 9-month-old baby and wife as they cuddled together in bed showed no reaction Thursday as he was sentenced to two life prison terms without parole.

Neil Entwistle was found guilty Wednesday of two counts of first-degree murder in the 2006 deaths of his wife, Rachel, and their baby, Lillian Rose, in their rented home in Hopkinton. He fled to his native England afterward.

He claims his wife killed the baby and then committed suicide. Prosecutors said he was despondent over mounting debt and dissatisfied over his sex life.

Entwistle also was given 10 years’ probation on two weapons convictions, with the condition that he not profit in any way from the sale of his story, either through a book or to a media outlet.
