Description

Singer/songwriter D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, is accused of killing a 14-year-old girl he'd allegedly been sexually abusing for years in order to keep her quiet about their relationship. Prosecutors say the singer, now 21, stabbed Celeste Rivas Hernandez to death at the Hollywood Hills home he was renting in April 2025, then allegedly dismembered her using a chainsaw. Her remains were found months later in the front trunk of a Tesla connected back to Burke. Law&Crime's Jesse Weber analyzes graphic new details revealed in a brief from the Los Angeles district attorney.

The scariest thought of this, is if the body had never been found she probably would have just been a missing person forever and an assumed run-away, and David would have been walking freely doing shows music and interviews the rest of his life with this disturbing secret.

To the person who reported the Tesla, you did the community a great service. People need to be more aware how important it is to report any suspicious behavior no matter how small. It could possibly help unsolved cases

So this means he left her in the trunk of the car and said "I'll worry about this after my concert* and thought he could get away with it 😮

He's a liar! He didn't mistake an 11 year old for an 18 year old.

Something about dismembering a child in a kiddie pool makes this so much more disturbing to me.
