On Tuesday, Feb. 23, Carine Reeves will be sentenced for the murder of Sally Shaw whose body was found shot on the side of the road in Cherryfield in 2017. Shaw was 55 years old.

A jury convicted Reeves in Oct. 2020 after four hours of deliberation.

At the time of the murder, Maine State Police linked Shaw’s body with a black 2017 Chevrolet Impala found to have been in an accident at the intersection of routes 193 and 9, approximately 13 miles from where Shaw’s body was found. The car had been rented in Bangor.
