Singer D4vd was charged with murder of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez on Monday.
D4vd, David Anthony Burke, was finallyarrestedlast week for the brutal murder of a 14-year-old girl whose dismembered, decomposing body was discovered rotting inside the front trunk of his Tesla.
Los Angeles Police Department officials confirmed last Thursday that the 20-year-old Houston-born singer was taken into custody without bail in connection with the September 2025 slaying of Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
The teen’s remains, wrapped in cadaver bags, partially frozen, decapitated, and hacked into pieces, were found by horrified first responders responding to reports of a foul odor emanating from an abandoned, dented Tesla towed from the Hollywood Hills.
D4vd allegedly began a sexual relationship with Celeste Rivas Hernandez when she was only 13.
Celeste was last seen in Southern California in 2024 after reportedly telling family members she was going to meet D4vd.
The victim’s mother had previously spoken out, raising questions about any possible relationship or grooming involving the young singer and the missing teen. Yet, the Los Angeles DA’s office delayed its investigation for several months.
D4vd’s attorneys said their client is innocent and did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
“Let us be clear — the actual evidence in this case will show that David Burke did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez and he was not the cause of her death,” the lawyers said, according to AP.
Singer D4vd has been charged with murder in the death of a 14-year-old girl whose dismembered and decomposed body was found in September in his apparently abandoned Tesla, prosecutors said Monday.
