Arrest warrants have been issued for two men who are wanted in connection with the Jan. 30 murder of Dennis Wright Jr. in South Lake Tahoe.

Domenic Seanlee Randolph, 24, and Dion Jermaine Randolph Vaccaro, 26, are considered armed and dangerous, according to the El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office. Detectives don’t know where the two are now, but they most recently have lived in the Fairfield, Vallejo, Napa and Sacramento areas.

Already in custody on murder charges for the same crime are Tristan Batten, 18, and Harvest Davidson, 20. Both face one count of murder. Both are being held without bail.

Wright was gunned down in the parking lot of the Beverly Lodge in what is described as a drug deal gone bad. He and his girlfriend Kendra Ghiorso, 45, both of Amador County, were selling marijuana from their vehicle, officers said, with 100 pounds being confiscated the night of the shooting.

Randolph is 6-foot-3, 187 pounds, has brown hair and brown eyes. Vaccaro is 6-feet, 200 pounds, and has brown hair and eyes.

Anyone who sees either man is asked to contact Investigator Dave Stevenson at 530.303.2411 or dave.stevenson@edcgov.us.
