The D4vd Murder Case: What Prosecutors Say Happened to Celeste Rivas Hernandez

Let's get into the D4vd case. What began as a missing-persons mystery has become one of the most disturbing cases in music. Rising singer D4vd, real name David Burke, has been ordered to stand trial after prosecutors laid out their allegations at a preliminary hearing, and a judge found enough evidence to proceed. The charges are grave: prosecutors allege he was involved in a sexual relationship with 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez and killed her to keep it from surfacing, then concealed her remains, which were later found in his impounded car. He has pleaded not guilty. This walks through what the hearing revealed, what's alleged versus proven, and what comes next as the case moves toward trial. Learn more about your ad choices.
