Trey Dean Wright, a high school athlete from Scranton, was lured into a deadly trap on June 24. Police say nine teens set him up in a violent love triangle dispute. The suspected shooter, 19-year-old Devan Scott Raper, is accused of gunning Trey down on a rural road.
Trey’s girlfriend, 17-year-old Gianna Kistenmacher, allegedly drove Raper to the scene knowing he was armed. Several other teens face charges for helping plan the attack. Sheriff TJ Joye called it “a sad waste of two young lives—over a female.”
Loved ones describe Trey as joyful and kind. “My baby never deserved this,” his mother said. “He was one in a million.” Friends remembered his big smile, love for sports, and adventurous spirit.
As the investigation continues, Trey’s family is vowing to fight for justice. A GoFundMe has been launched to support them through this painful time.
His tragic death leaves a community asking—how can we protect young lives from senseless violence?
