A preliminary hearing is set for May 26 to determine if the case goes to trial.

D4vd accused of murdering and dismembering teen to silence her

Prosecutors allege that 21-year-old singer D4vd (David Burke) stabbed and killed 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez to silence her after she threatened to expose his alleged abuse, then dismembered her with a chainsaw and amputated two fingers to destroy a tattoo linking him to her. Burke is charged with murder, continuous sex abuse of a minor, and mutilating a corpse; the body was found in the trunk of his Tesla. Authorities have pursued extensive discovery (wiretaps, cellphone/iCloud searches, 54 search warrants) and secret grand juries, delaying the preliminary hearing as prosecutors prepare their case.
