D4vd Case: Prosecutors Detail Abortion-Tied Abuse of Minor in Murder Probe

During a Los Angeles preliminary hearing, prosecutors presented hundreds of photos and messages from D4vd’s phone alleging he sexually abused Celeste Rivas Hernandez, who was a minor, and discussed an abortion. The materials, plus other evidence, are part of the case accusing him of killing and dismembering Hernandez; the judge will decide if there is enough evidence to proceed to trial. If convicted, Burke could face life in prison without parole or the death penalty, though prosecutors have not indicated they will seek capital punishment.
