TL;DR Summary

Prosecutors in Los Angeles argue that D4vd had a multimillion-dollar deal with Interscope and a financial motive to kill 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, pointing to purchases of a chainsaw, body bag, and shovel as part of the evidence.

Burke has pleaded not guilty and faces potential death or life without parole if convicted; he has been jailed without bail since April. Celeste's family attended the proceedings, seeking justice.
