D4vd: What Celeste’s Autopsy Revealed About Her Death

D4vd: What Celeste’s Autopsy Revealed About Her Death

Celeste Rivas Hernandez was fourteen years old. She liked Friday movie nights with her family. She had a brother who loved her and parents who searched for her. And according to the autopsy that was sealed for months and only recently made public, she was stabbed twice, her liver was perforated, and her body was dismembered — her limbs severed with enough force to embed blue plastic fragments in the cut surfaces.

Her remains weighed seventy-one pounds when the medical examiner received them. Toxicology found drugs in her system that no fourteen-year-old should have access to. And prosecutors allege that the man responsible — David Anthony Burke, the musician known as D4vd — killed her to protect his career, then allegedly continued performing concerts while her body remained in the trunk of his Tesla.

Burke now faces first-degree murder charges with special circumstances, including lying in wait and financial gain. Prosecutors also revealed that his devices contained what they described as a significant amount of child exploitation material — part of forty terabytes of evidence seized during the investigation.

The autopsy was finished months ago. LAPD kept it sealed. The medical examiner publicly objected, stating the information should be made available. Celeste’s family spent those months waiting for answers about what happened to their daughter.

Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins to walk through what the autopsy findings tell us about what Celeste endured, what the forensic trace evidence means for the prosecution’s case, and why the decisions made during this investigation deserve scrutiny. Celeste deserved protection. She deserved answers. Her family still does.
