Body-cam footage presented by prosecutors during a preliminary hearing for the murder of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez in Los Angeles shows singer D4vd, legal name David Anthony Burke, speaking with sheriff's deputies after Hernandez, then 13, was reported missing in early 2024.

In the footage, D4vd (pronounced David) can be heard saying that he was not aware that Hernandez was a minor and that he only met her in person one time. 'She told me she was 18,' the 2024 video captured D4vd saying. 'Everybody's telling me she was 13.' Burke has pleaded not guilty to all charges against him.
