About This Podcast
David Anthony Burke, the recording artist known as D4VD, is at the center of one of the most closely watched investigations in recent memory. Celeste Rivas Hernandez allegedly lost her life — and the questions surrounding what happened, who was involved, and what the evidence reveals are far from answered.
Hidden Killers is delivering wall-to-wall coverage of the D4VD case — from the Los Angeles grand jury proceedings and key witness testimony to the physical evidence recovered by LAPD, the Burke family's legal fight against California subpoenas, and the people left demanding answers. This collection features expert interviews with former FBI agents and law enforcement professionals, deep-dive monologues breaking down every development, and real-time reporting as the case against D4VD unfolds.
Celeste Rivas Hernandez deserved a future. Her family deserves accountability. And this case — involving alleged evidence destruction, a burn cage incinerator, cryopreservation forensics, and a second suspect identified by LAPD — deserves the kind of coverage that refuses to look away because a famous name is attached.
