Singer D4vd arrested and held without bail in case tied to teen found dead in Tesla: Police

Singer D4vd (David Burke), 21, was arrested Thursday by LAPD and held without bail in connection with the September 2025 murder of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, whose dismembered remains were found in an abandoned Tesla registered to Burke. The Fox News article, bylined by breaking news reporter Greg Wehner, provides substantial detail sourced from LAPD statements and court documents obtained by the Associated Press, including specifics about how the body was discovered in a cadaver bag with severed limbs—information corroborated by NBC News, ABC7, and NYT coverage. The reporting documents that Burke was the target of a grand jury investigation in February, that prosecutors sought testimony from his relatives, and that he initially continued touring before canceling shows as news of the investigation spread, establishing a timeline consistent with the charges. Watch for the District Attorney's filing decision expected Monday, which will formally establish the charges and bail status.
