An illegal alien who killed two women in a drunken hit-and-run in Louisville, Ky. in October has been deported eight times, the Justice Department revealed on Wednesday.

Miguel Angel Villasenor-Saucedo, 40, was driving a truck on the night of Oct. 22 when he hit and killed two women who were on the side of a highway in Louisville following a traffic accident. After striking the women, the Mexican national fled the scene on foot.

He has not been apprehended, but a federal grand jury indicted him this week for illegal re-entry after deportation. Villasenor-Saucedo was last deported from the U.S. on May 13, 2013, the Justice Department said.

If convicted of illegal re-entry, the illegal alien faces a maximum penalty of two years in prison.

Villasenor-Saucedo’s full criminal record has not been made public. But federal court documents reviewed by The Daily Caller show that he was apprehended twice within six days in 2011 after he illegally crossed the Rio Grande River into Texas.

He was picked up by border patrol agents on Nov. 6, 2011 after he rafted across the river near Hidalgo and again on Nov. 12, 2011 after wading across near La Gloria, Tex.

On June 14, 2012, he was apprehended after rafting across the river again. And several months later, on Sept. 25, 2012, border patrol agents picked Villasenor-Saucedo up after he waded across the river near Brownsville.

In some of those cases, he was ordered held for as many as 60 days in jail and given a small fine.
