ESPARTO, Calif. — A DNA testing process to identify the remains of the seven victims of the deadly fireworks warehouse explosion in the Esparto area is underway, Yolo County officials said Monday, as families camped out near the site await answers nearly a week after the tragedy.

------------

A description of the press conference said officials planned to reveal details on recovery operations and information about the victims and where the investigation stands into the massive July 1 explosion at the fireworks storage facility owned by Devastating Pyrotechnics. Additional state records show another company by the name of BlackStar Fireworks listed at the Esparto address.

KCRA 3 Investigates has learned that both Devastating Pyrotechnics and BlackStar Fireworks are connected with a man named Craig Cutright. Cutright owned BlackStar and was an employee of Devastating Pyrotechnics. He is an active volunteer firefighter for the Esparto Fire Protection District, Lawrence confirmed to KCRA 3.

Meanwhile, the owner of the property, Sam Machado, is a lieutenant with the Yolo County Sheriff's Office. When asked about the deputy's status, Davis said it's a personnel matter.

Many other questions remain as the representatives with the sheriff's office and fire protection district said the investigation is being handled by the state fire marshal, who was invited to the press conference but was not in attendance. The suspected cause of the explosion has not yet been released.

KCRA 3 Investigates has learned that the facility was not zoned to store fireworks, but was instead zoned for what is called "agriculture intensive." Officials at the press conference said they would not answer questions about permits.
