Trevor James Solari, 27, was found dead from a gunshot wound to the upper body inside an apartment complex on Howe Avenue in North Sacramento on August 4, 2018. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Reports say he was shot while he slept, a detail that intensified the loss felt by family and friends who remember him for his outgoing nature and infectious smile.

The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department opened an immediate homicide investigation. Two men were arrested in connection with the case: Maurice Vale, 44, of Sacramento, was charged with murder, robbery, and a parole violation; and Richard Wallace-Dargan, 30, of Citrus Heights, was charged with being an accessory to murder and home invasion robbery. Both were held in the Sacramento County Main Jail without bail.

Trevor’s family and community continue to seek closure as the legal process proceeds. If anyone had information about Trevor, his movements that night, or the Howe Avenue apartment complex, please come forward.
