May 5 marked Hoang’s transfer into ICE custody after his release from prison, and he is now being held pending deportation.
The arrest followed his conviction in the Feb. 29, 1996 killing of 32-year-old Sarah "Kathy" Arceneaux outside her Port Arthur, Texas, home.
ICE said Hoang and friends had been drinking and decided to rob homes, then went on a shooting spree with a .22-caliber rifle, firing at dogs and houses before Arceneaux was shot five times.
The case resurfaced as ICE highlighted the arrest as a deportation action involving a noncitizen offender released after serving time for a decades-old murder.
