Celeste Hernandez was a California teen who vanished—only to be discovered days later, deceased in the trunk of a Tesla in Hollywood. The vehicle belonged to David Burke, known publicly as D4VD, a rising music artist whose meteoric career now intersects with a devastating loss of life.But here’s where the story gets more complex: D4VD has not been arrested.Killer expert William A. Noguera offers a defense-side perspective on the legal and public dynamics surrounding this case—and why neither D4VD nor his attorney has issued a public statement. Together, we break down the timeline of Celeste’s disappearance, the immediate social media reaction, and the public narrative that formed long before law enforcement provided clarity. We explore why no arrest has been made to date, the legal significance of intent and knowledge, and how being connected to a tragedy is not the same as being criminally responsible for it.This episode asks the question circulating everywhere: Is law enforcement quietly building a case behind the scenes— or is the public filling in gaps that the evidence has not yet confirmed?
