AS COLD-BLOODED killer Neil Entwistle awaits his sentence, his lawyer addressed the media.
ON the morning of the sentencing, Mr Elliot Weinstein had this message.
Press the green button to view.
Mr Weinstein took questions from the press pack this morning outside Middlesex County Superior Court.
When asked if he is concerned for Entwistle's safety while he is held in a Massachusetts state prison waiting for appeal, Mr Weinstein answered:
"I am concerned for any client who is in prison because prisons are tough places to exist," he said. "So yes I am concerned, but no more than I would be for anyone else."
But he said the responsibility for Neil's welfare now rests with the state.
Yesterday Entwistle was found guilty of two counts of first degree murder.
Judge Diane Kottmyer will sentence Entwistle two hours from now, he is expected to get life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
