D4vd’s lawyers are mounting a fierce defense in his murder trial, challenging police’s DNA testing methods and questioning the relevance of evidence like chainsaws found in his garage — which prosecutors say were used to dismember 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. The defense argues that “touch DNA” could still be present despite initial tests showing no blood, and highlights that multiple people lived at the residence, making DNA useless as evidence. They also point to fake blood and cleaned-up scenes — possibly for music videos — as red flags. Prosecutors push back, claiming Burke’s relationship with the victim, which began when she was 13, turned deadly after she threatened to ruin his career. The indie-pop star, known for dark imagery and his alter-ego, sat calmly in court while the victim’s parents watched silently from the front row.
