Neil Entwistle wants to go home for the holidays! In a motion dated Nov. 5, his lawyers have asked that he be released on bail so that he can stay with his parents in England until his trial begins in April. This is an unusual request for an accused double murderer, and I doubt it will be granted, but it's worth a try. Neil's lawyer Stephanie Page explained that her client is not a flight risk:
“He never fled. He went home to his parents. Everyone knew where he was. He maintained contact with law enforcement on a daily basis.”
Neil's parents have offered to put their home up as collateral, and his lawyers have suggested that he wear a tracking device if his request is granted. Naturally, his wife's family opposes the motion. For the full story, see the Herald.
