Celeste Rivas Hernandez: The Autopsy That Changed Everything

For months, the autopsy was sealed. Three grand juries were convened in secret. And for nearly a year after Celeste Rivas Hernandez was last seen alive, the man prosecutors say is responsible for her death allegedly toured the country while her remains were reportedly hidden inside his vehicle.The singer known as D4vd — David Anthony Burke, 21 — now faces first-degree murder charges with special circumstances, along with counts of continuous abuse of a child under fourteen and unlawful mutilation of remains. According to the autopsy, Celeste died from multiple penetrating wounds. Blue plastic was reportedly found embedded in the dismemberment sites. Drugs were found in the system of a fourteen-year-old girl who still had braces when she died.Prosecutors allege the killing was motivated by financial gain — that Burke allegedly ended a child’s life to protect a music career. They say they’ve assembled forty terabytes of evidence, obtained a wiretap, and discovered exploitation material directly on his phone. His defense says he is innocent.Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program Chief, joins to answer your questions about the behavioral and investigative dimensions of this case.
