The rising pop singer D4vd and 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez were in the throes of a clandestine relationship months before her mangled and decomposing body turned up last September stuffed in an impounded car registered to the musician.
D4vd, born David Anthony Burke, is set to stand trial for murder, child sexual abuse and mutilation of human remains in connection to the teenager’s death.
Los Angeles county prosecutors accuse Burke of stabbing Celeste to death and subsequently severing her limbs as he sought to prevent her from revealing their sexual relationship, which began when he was 18 and she was 13 in November 2023.
The ghastly discovery of Celeste’s remains sent social media sleuths, particularly those in corners of Discord where Burke had carved a niche as an online gamer before pivoting to music, racing through the singer’s past videos and content for any clues concerning his ties to Celeste.
