Accused killer and singer David Burke, also known as D4vd, has swapped his high-profile private attorneys for LA County public defenders. His claims of indigency come after Burke was charged in Los Angeles with the murder of teen Celeste Rivas Hernandez. The prosecution alleges Burke killed Celeste to protect his lucrative music career, leading the victim's family to slam his claim that he lacks the funds to afford a proper defense. Law&Crime's Jesse Weber breaks down the financial details and potential motives with former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani.
