Day 2 of d4vd's preliminary hearing put a dollar figure on the alleged motive and a location pin on the alleged cover-up. Prosecutors called two financial witnesses who testified Burke grossed more than $10 million in three years. Then the questioning turned personal — a money manager admitted knowing Celeste Rivas Hernandez's first name before the body was ever found. He heard it from Burke's own manager. The prosecutor asked about international travel and nightclubs with fake identification before the defense shut it down. A CHP officer described how a Caltrans worker found Celeste's passport card in the brush along State Route 154 in Santa Barbara County, about ninety-five miles from Burke's Hollywood home. Location data allegedly places Burke at that exact spot twice — once right after the alleged killing, and again weeks later. An LAPD criminologist then described what she found inside the Tesla: dust, decomposition, insects, and air fresheners in every compartment. The hearing continues.
