When workers at a Los Angeles tow yard opened an abandoned Tesla registered to pop star D4vd, they discovered the remains of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. She was just 14 years old when prosecutors allege she was murdered. Morgan Absher and Kaelyn Moore trace the complete D4vd case, including Celeste’s disappearances, her final messages, the alleged grooming relationship, DNA evidence recovered from a Hollywood Hills mansion, suspicious purchases and the evidence that led a judge to order D4vd to stand trial. D4vd, whose legal name is David Anthony Burke, has pleaded not guilty to murder, continuous sexual abuse of a child and unlawful mutilation of human remains. He is presumed innocent unless proven guilty. This episode contains discussions of murder, dismemberment, child sexual abuse, grooming, emotional abuse and intimate partner violence.
