D4vd Hit With BOMBSHELL Lawsuit in Teen Dismemberment Case
from Murder Files Unsealed · host AC Wilson
The family of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against singer David Anthony Burke, known as d4vd, following his arrest for her murder and dismemberment. This civil action targets not only the artist but also his mother, security team, and management, alleging they enabled the abuse and failed to protect the minor. Legal experts explain that the burden of proof is lower in this civil case than in Burke's ongoing criminal prosecution, potentially allowing for more evidence to be disclosed. The suit includes grave accusations such as human trafficking, negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress, citing gifts and travel as evidence of a commercial sexual relationship. Additionally, the parents challenge Burke's claim of indigence, pointing to his massive streaming success and alleged fraudulent transfer of assets to his mother. Ultimately, the litigation seeks unspecified damages and accountability for those who allegedly facilitated the isolation and eventual death of the victim.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/murder-files-unsealed--6017387/support.This episode includes AI-generated content.
