Illegal alien gang member accused of multiple murders gets maximum sentence for federal firearms crime

VICTORIA, Texas - A 41-year-old illegal alien from Cambodia has been ordered to federal prison for unlawfully possessing a weapon linked to a fatal shooting, announced Acting U.S. Attorney John G.E. Marck.

Savin Seng aka "Two-Face" pleaded guilty Nov. 18, 2025.

U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos has now ordered him to serve 180 months in federal prison. Not a U.S. citizen, he is expected to face removal proceedings following the sentence.

On Oct. 3, 2025, an incident occurred at a residence in the Telferner community outside Victoria, where authorities found a female victim deceased from a gunshot wound to the head. The shooter had left his cell phone and fled the scene.

An image on the phone showed Seng holding a Glock pistol with an extended magazine. A witness had also identified him as the murder suspect.

Law enforcement located Seng less than a mile from the scene of the shooting and took him into custody. At the time of his arrest, he had a loaded Glock 17, 9mm pistol in his shorts along with a loaded 31-round extended magazine.

Seng had illegally entered the United States as a child from Cambodia and never held lawful immigration status in the country. Court documents allege he had been ordered removed as an aggravated felon in April 2016 but had not been physically removed. He has been in custody in California, Georgia and Louisiana, according to court records, and had an active arrest warrant from 2022 for another homicide in Los Angeles, California.

Seng admitted he possessed multiple guns while remaining in the United States illegally.

The cases are all part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations, and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.
