What D4VD Allegedly Did the Morning After Celeste Was Killed

from Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary · host True Crime Today

According to prosecutors, the morning after Celeste Rivas Hernandez was allegedly stabbed to death, David Anthony Burke ordered a shovel from Home Depot. Then chainsaws. Then a body bag. Then an inflatable pool — all allegedly under the fake name "Victoria Mendez." Then he allegedly gave a radio interview. That evening, he allegedly attended a party for his debut album. The album dropped two days later.This week's Hidden Killers review brings together the most critical D4VD case conversations — the prosecution's nine-page filing that rewrote the public understanding of the timeline and the listener questions that erupted after it went public.Burke has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous sexual abuse of a child under fourteen, and unlawful mutilation of human remains. His defense maintains he is innocent. But what Beth Silverman laid out in the People's Brief describes an alleged pattern of behavior so deliberate it extends days beyond the killing itself. Prosecutors allege Burke texted Celeste's phone asking where she was — after she was allegedly already dead. They allege he drove to a remote area near Lake Cachuma three separate times. Blue plastic fragments found in Celeste's remains were reportedly matched to the pool by LAPD's forensic lab. Fifty-four search warrants were executed — a number that tells you this investigation reached far beyond one person.Prosecutors allege Burke met Celeste online when she was eleven and that the sexual relationship began when she was thirteen. They say she was reported missing multiple times. They say law enforcement told Burke her age during a welfare check and he claimed he'd only met her once.Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down what the evidence roadmap reveals about how prosecutors are building premeditation and consciousness of guilt. Robin Dreeke answers the questions listeners have been asking — about what allegedly happened in the weeks after, about friends and associates who reportedly noticed a smell and said nothing, and about every system that allegedly failed a fourteen-year-old girl before it was too late.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
