Prosecutors unveiled autopsy photos, digital records, DNA matches, and disturbing texts revealing the victim’s abortion and escalating tension — even explicit photos allegedly found on Burke’s iCloud. The defense claims Burke was financially unaware and that the victim’s parents knew of their relationship. Investigators believe the killing happened in a 21-minute window after she arrived at his home in 2025, with no weapon or dismemberment tools recovered. Burke, locked up without bail, insists he’s innocent — and his trial begins in 90 days. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
