Los Angeles : US musician David Anthony Burke, known as D4vd, has been charged with first-degree murder, lewd acts with a minor, and mutilation of a body after the remains of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez were found in a Tesla registered to him in Los Angeles in September. Prosecutors allege the teenager, who had been reported missing in 2024, was last seen after visiting Burke’s home and was never heard from again. Her decomposed remains were discovered in a tow yard vehicle after reports of a foul smell, according to court documents.
Burke, 21, appeared in court on Monday and pleaded not guilty through his lawyer, with a judge ordering him held without bail. Prosecutors have said special circumstances in the case could make him eligible for the death penalty, though a decision has not yet been made. His legal team has strongly denied the allegations and vowed to fight the charges. The case has drawn widespread attention, leading to the cancellation of his tours and raising shock across the music industry.
