US EditionSinger D4vd is arrested on suspicion of killing a 14-year-old girl found dead in his Tesla
- On Thursday, Los Angeles police arrested 21-year-old singer David Burke, also known as D4vd, on suspicion of murdering 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez; he is held without bail.
- Authorities discovered Hernandez's remains in September 2025 inside a Tesla registered to Burke, finding the body "severely decomposed" and wrapped in bags inside the vehicle.
- Previously secret, the investigation became public in February when subpoenas demanding testimony from Burke's family identified the singer as the probe's target.
- The District Attorney's Office is reviewing evidence to determine whether to file formal charges, with investigators set to present the case on Monday.
- Before his arrest, the Houston-born artist gained popularity on TikTok with his hit "Romantic Homicide," but cancelled his remaining North American and European concerts after the case became public.
