British man Neil Entwistle has been jailed for life without the possibility of parole by a US judge for the murders of his wife and baby daughter.

Entwistle (29), who shot wife Rachel (27) and nine-month-old daughter Lillian Rose before fleeing back to England, showed no emotion this afternoon as the sentence was handed down.

Judge Diane Kottmyer at the Middlesex County Superior Court in Woburn, Massachusetts told Entwistle that the "planned and deliberate murders" were incomprehensible.
