Escambia Man Gets Two Life Sentences For Home Invasion Robbery

June 3, 2019

An Escambia County man has received two life sentences for a 2017 home invasion robbery.

Shaba Ryheem Savage will serve the life sentences consecutive with 15 years imposed for false imprisonment, aggravated battery and grand theft

In February 2017 Savage and his co-defendant Terrell Williams forced their way into an Escambia County residence while armed with a long gun.  Savage is alleged to have held the family at gunpoint while Williams forced the father to drive him to various ATM machines in an effort to acquire cash.  During the incident, the father was struck in the head with the weapon and numerous items of personal property were stolen from the residence.

The investigation into the home invasion continued after Williams’ arrest and Shaba Savage was identified as the second intruder.  Savage was ultimately identified through the use of Facebook photographs. Additionally, one of the victims located her property in a pawn shop. The investigation determined that Savage’s then girlfriend received those items from the defendant and had pawned those items shortly after this robbery. Savage was then arrested.

Savage qualified as a habitual felony offender and prison releasee reoffender. He was released from prison in June 2016, eight months before this incident.

Williams was sentenced to 25 years in state prison.

    Habitual felony offender – felony offenders given chance after chance. So much wasted time and tax$$ letting this maniac loose only to brutalize innocents again – this savage should have been in a permanent cage or the ground a long time ago
