What investigators found inside D4vd's Tesla and Hollywood Hills home

NBC Los Angeles reports on Day 2 of a pretrial hearing in Los Angeles where prosecutors presented forensic evidence from LAPD investigators examining a Tesla and rental home connected to singer D4vd (David Burke), who is charged with murdering 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. Criminalist Chelsea Murillo testified that she found 11 air fresheners in the Tesla where the victim's body was discovered, detected odors consistent with decomposition, and discovered blood confirmed through phenolphthalein and Bluestar chemical testing—including DNA matching the victim in the rear trunk area. Investigator Lauren Wallace described finding blood traces on floor mats with apparent cuts, trash bags, tarps, a rowing machine, and an inflatable pool in a Hollywood Hills garage rented by Burke, with dryer sheets found inside the pool. The reporting is detailed and forensically specific, with named LAPD witnesses providing direct testimony from court proceedings; corroborating coverage from the Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, and other outlets confirms these investigative findings were presented during the same hearing, establishing the factual foundation of this account. Readers should monitor the progression of the pretrial hearing toward a probable-cause determination and any subsequent trial proceedings.
