Days after singer and songwriter D4vd was charged with murder, sexual abuse and dismemberment in the killing of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, prosecutors have revealed a series of disturbing allegations.According to newly filed court documents, reviewed by TMZ, prosecutors have outlined the events before and after the death of Celeste. According to investigators, Rivas was brought to the singer’s Hollywood Hills residence on April 23, 2025, after he allegedly arranged an Uber to transport her from her family home in Lake Elsinore, California. Once at the residence, prosecutors claim she was fatally stabbed.As per the report, authorities allege that in the days following the incident, the artist purchased several items that prosecutors claim, were used to dismember and dispose of the teen’s body. Court filings state that a shovel was ordered the next day and delivered to the singer’s home. A week later, D4vd purchased two chainsaws via Amazon. He also reportedly purchased additional items, including a body bag, heavy-duty laundry bags and a blue inflatable pool. However, as per the reports, these purchases were made under a false name of “Victoria Mendez.”Investigators claim that after stabbing the victim to death, the accused allegedly placed her body inside the inflatable pool set up in the garage, to avoid the blood from spilling out. He allegedly used tools, including the chainsaws, to dismember her body.Celeste’s autopsy report stated that her ring and pinky fingers on her left hand were nowhere to be found in the decomposing remains found in the trunk of the car. As per the prosecutors, D4vd allegedly cut off her ring finger because she had a tattoo of his name on it. Her finger has not yet been recovered.Authorities have also reportedly recovered “evidence consistent with the dismemberment of the victim’s body in the inflatable pool, which contained multiple linear cuts. Several biological samples, which tested positive for blood, were collected within the garage area.”As for the inflatable pool, medical examiner’s report cited the presence of blue plastic fragments embedded in recovered remains, which prosecutors say are consistent with the pool.Surveillance footage, as per the report also allegedly shows that D4vd was the last person to drive the car before departing for a tour in late July.Unravelling the timeline of their relationship, Prosecutors state that D4vd met Rivas back in 2022, when she was just 11 years old. The singer reportedly pursued a sexual relationship with the victim in November 2023 when she was 13, and he was 18.Prosecutors also say it’s clear when D4vd knew Celeste was a minor.The artist was arrested earlier this month and charged with first-degree murder, lewd and lascivious acts with a person under 14, and mutilating a dead body. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.Lead defence attorney Blair Berk said in court last week.“We believe the actual evidence will show David Burke did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez.”Blair Berk, who is representing D4vd, has for many years been among the go-to lawyers for A-list clients. They’ve included Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, Ozzy Osbourne, and Harvey Weinstein. Go to Source
