Trucksville teen charged with stabbing three family members, killing father, deemed incompetent

Two experts have deemed that a teen charged with stabbing three members of a Kingston Township family — one fatally — is incompetent to stand trial on a homicide charge, resulting in a judge’s order staying the case while the boy receives mental-health treatment at a state psychiatric facility.

Zachary Lee Hockenberry, 15, of Trucksville, will remain detained at the facility “for appropriate treatment and some attempt to work on competency restoration for up to six weeks from admission,” Luzerne County Judge Michael T. Vough wrote in a June 22 order.

Pa. boy, 16, who stabbed family of 3 is ruled incompetent to stand trial

It's been almost two years since Zachary Lee Hockenberry - then just 14 - allegedly stabbed a husband and wife and their 17-year-old daughter in their Luzerne County home. But Hockenberry has yet to answer the charges.

That's because a county judge continues to rule Hockenberry, now 16, incompetent to stand trial.
