Sheng's murder has left behind her 2yr old Daughter to grow up without his Mother in his life

Sheng was working on a business career while attending Century College.

Sheng was found stabbed to death in the St. Paul garage belonging to a member of her estranged husband’s family. Police are calling it a case of deadly domestic violence. Sheng’s mother had warned her that morning not to go alone to see Moua Her, 22, to retrieve legal documents she needed for a passport.

“I told her, ‘I will go with you. You can tell the police to go with you. That man is very dangerous,’” she said.

According to police, family records and court documents, in the past several years there had been many reports of fights, threats, and abuse of Sheng. Sheng Vang obtained an order for protection against her husband, which was granted after an incident in March when Her tried to strangle his wife and stun her with some sort of electrical weapon.

The couple had met in high school and court records show that the abuse started within months of their January 2000 wedding.

Moua Her fled the Twin Cities to evade arrest and was captured by police outside of Chicago, after he attempted to use his credit card to pay for an escort service. 

In 2006, Moua Her was convicted with charges of first-degree and second-degree murder. He was sentenced to life in prison.
