A Brooklyn woman was stabbed to death inside her home during a domestic dispute on Sunday night, police reported.

Law enforcement sources said Antoinette Stewart-Gordon, 47, was found stabbed multiple times in the neck and abdomen on the 900 block of East 81st Street in Canarsie at about 9:28 p.m. on Dec. 22.
