“Dist. Atty. Nathan Hochman said D4vd repeatedly sexually abused Hernandez and mutilated her body. She was last seen at the singer's home in April 2025, according to Hochman, then was "not heard from again." Hochman also said the killing was committed for financial gain, so that Burke could "maintain his very lucrative musical career."
Hochman also accused the singer of killing a witness because there was an active investigation into Burke's sexual abuse of Hernandez at the time of her death.”

May Celeste get justice and may no other child, woman, vulnerable person ever cross his path again.
Took long enough.
Many months later 🙄
> Prosecutors will file murder with special circumstances charges later on Monday, alleging Burke killed Hernandez for financial gain and because she was a witness to a crime — her own sexual abuse at the singer’s hands. If convicted as charged, Burke would face life in prison without the possibility or parole, or the death penalty.
Life without parole.
He’s charged with first degree murder, which means he could possibly face the death penalty if found guilty. But it’s California, so unlikely to actually face execution. He would probably get life without parole.
If you are wondering “wHy dId iT tAkE sO LoNg?”, the LAPD chief and the LA district attorney specifically addresses this in the top video here: [https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c3v60439wlwt](https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c3v60439wlwt)
So crazy to me that people kill people just like that?!!
Something about the way this is phrased makes me wonder if she was pregnant 😓
How’s him maintaining his very lucrative musical career going for him?
This talent-resistant POS is going away forever. He will not see freedom. Ever. Guaranteed. The judges already won’t like his look, his music, his everything. He is 100% done. If Newsom decides to open up the DP, he’ll get that. Let’s hope.
dude though he was a gangster but really he was some pathetic gooner who likely couldn’t get laid without paying so he resorted to manipulating and abusing a young girl, and made her stay until he killed her, fucking loser
America, land of making pedophiles and sex abusers rich and famous while keeping them comfortably out of jail for as long as possible. 🇺🇸
That poor kid. She was 10 when he started grooming her.
Seems like this dude was trying to speed run through all of the most heinous crimes a human can commit
Celeste is getting justice thank god!
Reading about this case made me feel so sick. What a disgusting POS.
