\n\tProsecutors have revealed that singer D4vd had a \u201csignificant amount\u201d<\/a> of child pornography on his iCloud storage account during a hearing on Thursday, just days after he was charged with the murder of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring the hearing, Beth Silverman, deputy district attorney for Los Angeles County, said that they uncovered a significant amount of material that\u2019s taking a long time to upload, according to NBC News<\/a>. D4vd<\/a>, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, had eight terabytes of data on an iCloud storage account, and prosecutors have only been able to download one terabyte thus far. It\u2019s unclear how much of the iCloud content contained child pornography.<\/p>\n

\n\tProsecutors said that defense attorneys could view the data at a clean computer in the justice center, and that there are an additional 20 to 30 terabytes of raw data across various devices that the district attorney\u2019s office is attempting to transfer onto drives for the singer\u2019s defense team. Burke, who is being held without bail, appeared at the hearing in an orange jumpsuit during the hearing and was \u201cslumped\u201d in his chair.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Los Angeles County medical examiner released an autopsy report yesterday that revealed Hernandez died of multiple stab wounds and that the manner was \u201chomicide.\u201d The report, which was completed in December but was sealed pending the LAPD investigation, found that Rivas died from \u201cmultiple penetrating injuries\u201d including two wounds to the torso, one in the upper abdomen, penetrating the liver, and one in the left chest. Her body was found in multiple bags in the front trunk of Burke\u2019s Tesla in September 2025. Her arms and legs had been cut off, and her body was significantly decomposed, according to the report.<\/p>\n

\n\tRivas was last seen alive on April 23, 2025, when she went to Burke\u2019s home in the Hollywood Hills, according to D.A. Nathan Hochman. Burke was arrested last Friday and was charged on Monday, facing a first-degree murder charge, which could potentially make him eligible for the death penalty. He will also face charges for lewd acts with a child and for dismembering the girl\u2019s body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prosecutors have revealed that singer D4vd had a \u201csignificant amount\u201d of child pornography on his iCloud storage account…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":602624,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[89930,88],"class_list":["post-602623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-d4vd","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/602623","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=602623"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/602623\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/602624"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=602623"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=602623"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=602623"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
