The State Superior Court overturned the sentence of a Scranton woman convicted of fatally stabbing her fiancé and ruled she be resentenced. Eileen Dougherty of Scranton received a 7½- to 15-year prison sentence in February of last year. The Lackawanna County district attorney challenged that relatively lenient sentence in an appeal. Dougherty was arrested in March 2021 for stabbed George Shencavitz multiple times following an argument at their home on Delaware Street. She pleaded guilty to third-degree murder and was sentenced by Lackawanna County Judge Andy Jarbola.
