Singer/TikTok star d4vd (David Anthony Burke) arrested on suspicion of murdering 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, makes his first court appearance. He is being held without bail. Celeste's body was discovered of the teen's body in a Tesla registered to him last September. According to LA prosecutors, the alleged motive for the murder was to silence her and protect D4vd's music career. Prosecutors allege that Burke was engaging in a sexual relationship with the teenager and killed her when she threatened to expose his conduct.

Attorneys for Burke declare his innocence.
