CELESTE,13, AUTOPSY: SKELETONIZED, MISSING LEFT EYE, D4VD WHINES

from Crime Stories with Nancy Grace · host iHeartPodcasts and CrimeOnline

Singer-songwriter d4vd, David Anthony Burke, in court today on charges including first-degree murder in the death of teen Celeste Rivas Hernandez.  He pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder, murder for financial gain, and murder of a witness to an investigation. Prosecutors allege he killed Celeste to prevent her from exposing their sexual relationship, in turn ruining his musical career.  Celeste's autopsy revealed a gruesome death from multiple stab wounds, in her torso. Her body was subsequently dismembered. Her skull was partially skeletonized and an eye was missing. Two fingers were also gone. During a court hearing today, prosecutors revealed  a "significant amount" of child pornography was found on Burke's phone.   D4vd has been denied bail and is now being held at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility. This is the same facility housing Nick Reiner.  D4vd's legal team says "actual evidence in this case will show that David Burke did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez".  Joining Nancy Grace today:  Philip Dubé  - Former Court-Appointed Counsel,   Public Defenders: Criminal & Consttutional Law, Forensics & Mental Health Advocacy Dr. Geri-Lynn Utter  -  Clinical Psychologist, Author of “Mainlining Philly: Survival, Hope and Resisting Drug Addition,” “Aftershock: How Past Event Shake Up Your Life Today”, and Producer of the documentary “Utter Nonsense,”  available to stream on Apple TV and Prime Video, website:drgerilynnutter.com, Instagram & Facebook: DrGeriLynnUtter Joseph Scott Morgan - Professor of Forensics: Jacksonville State University, Author, "Blood Beneath My Feet", Host: "Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan", Instagram @JoScottForensic,  Caitlyn Becker - Senior National Correspondent at the New York Post / Host of podcast: ‘NYPostCast’   Dave Mack - Investigative Reporter, 'Crime Stories'   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
