"The singer, whose real name is David Burke, has been the subject of the probe since November, months after the dismembered body of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found in the car after it was towed off a street in Hollywood. According to a grand jury subpoena seeking to have Burke's father, mother and brother testify in L.A., the musician is described as "Target David Burke," who may have committed a criminal offense in California, "to wit: One count of Murder.""
"When Los Angeles police opened up the Tesla trunk, they found "a black cadaver bag covered with insects and a strong odor of decay" inside. Investigators had been granted a search warrant to look in the vehicle Sept. 8 after a tow yard worker noticed a rotting smell emanating from the vehicle. According to the document, detectives partially unzipped the bag and found "a decomposed head and torso.""
""Upon removing the cadaver bag from the front storage compartment, it was discovered the arms and legs had been severed from the body," the subpoenas noted. "A second black bag was discovered underneath the cadaver bag. Upon opening the second bag, the dismembered body parts were discovered.""
Singer D4vd, whose real name is David Burke, became the target of a Los Angeles County criminal investigation following the discovery of dismembered remains of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez in the front trunk of his Tesla. The body was found after the vehicle was towed from a Hollywood street in September. A search warrant was executed after a tow yard worker detected a rotting smell. Inside the trunk, investigators found a black cadaver bag containing a decomposed head and torso, with arms and legs severed from the body. A second bag underneath contained additional dismembered body parts. The Los Angeles County District Attorney issued grand jury subpoenas in January seeking testimony from Burke's family members, with a Texas court denying their petitions to ignore the subpoenas.
