Family Demands Death Penalty for D4vd | California News

Celeste Rivas Hernandez’s family demands the death penalty for D4vd, calling him “empty and without conscience,” as they mourn what would have been her 16th birthday. Her body was found in his car trunk in September 2025; prosecutors allege he killed her after she threatened to expose their relationship and ruin his career. Burke faces multiple charges including first-degree murder, child sexual abuse, and mutilation, with special allegations of witness murder and financial motive that could qualify him for the death penalty. Last seen in April 2025 at his home, she was allegedly stabbed repeatedly and left to die. Burke remains jailed without bail, with a court date set for October 19 — and trial looming.
