美国歌手D4vd(本名David Anthony Burke)的私人律师团队已从其谋杀案中撤出123。21岁的Burke因涉嫌谋杀、性虐待和肢解14岁少女Celeste Rivas Hernandez而被指控123。律师Blair Berk及其同事Marilyn Bednarski和Regina Peter在周一的法庭听证会上申请撤回23,法院批准了这一请求3。洛杉矶县公共辩护律师Walid Kandeel随后接替其防御工作123。
受害者的遗骸于2025年9月被发现在Burke名下的特斯拉内1。检控方指控Burke在多年性虐待后刺伤受害者,然后肢解其尸体1。根据检控方说法,Burke杀害Hernandez的动机是受害者威胁揭露他与未成年人的关系并摧毁他价值数百万美元的音乐事业,此威胁短信发送于2025年4月22日,Hernandez随后于4月23日到达Burke的好莱坞住宅1。
尽管Burke在2023至2025年间通过音乐收入至少1000万美元23,法院仍认定其符合获得公共法律援助的资格23。Burke被控一级谋杀罪、肢解人类遗骸罪和儿童性虐待罪1,其对所有指控提出不认罪申辞13。检察官Nathan Hochman表示仍在考虑是否追求死刑3。法官Charlaine F. Olmedo在7月五天听证会后认定有足够证据让Burke受审2。
The private legal team representing singer D4vd has withdrawn from his murder case, with court-appointed public defenders taking over his representation.123 David Anthony Burke, 21, faces charges including first-degree murder, dismemberment of human remains, and child sexual abuse in connection with the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.12 Prominent attorneys Blair Berk, Marilyn Bednarski, and Regina Peter withdrew during a Monday court hearing, and Walid Kandeel of the Los Angeles County Public Defender's Office was appointed to represent him.23
The case centers on allegations that Burke sexually abused Hernandez over an extended period before fatally stabbing her in April 2025 after she threatened to expose the abuse and destroy his multimillion-dollar music career.1 According to prosecutors, Hernandez sent Burke a threatening message on April 22, 2025, and arrived at his Hollywood residence the following day.1 Her remains were discovered in September 2025 inside a Tesla registered to Burke.1 Despite having earned at least $10 million through music between 2023 and 2025, the court determined Burke qualified for public legal assistance.23 Burke entered a not guilty plea at Monday's hearing and faces potential capital punishment, though prosecutors indicated they are still deciding whether to pursue the death penalty.23 A preliminary hearing is scheduled for October 19.1
