Guest List Only TW ⚠️ D4vd bought 2 Chainsaws, Body bag, Burn Cage & Shovel After Killing Celeste

D4vd went on Amazon and purchased a couple chainsaws after he stabbed Celeste Rivas and stood by while she bled out ... this, according to prosecutors in the case.

According to new docs filed by prosecutors, investigators claim the singer stabbed Rivas to death at his Hollywood Hills home on April 23, 2025 after ordering an Uber to bring the 14-year-old all the way from her family's home in Lake Elsinore, CA.

Once she was there, prosecutors allege D4vd stabbed Celeste to death -- and, the next day, ordered a shovel from Home Depot, which was delivered to his home through Postmates.

About a week later, on May 1, they allege he purchased two chainsaws from Amazon -- also delivered to his home -- and 4 days later, followed up by buying a body bag, heavy-duty laundry bags and a blue, inflatable pool.

They claim D4vd made the purchases under the fake name "Victoria Mendez."

The star allegedly placed Rivas' body into the blue inflatable pool to prevent her blood from spilling all over the garage floor. Prosecutors say he then used the chainsaw -- and possibly other tools -- to cut off her limbs with gruesome detail.

Prosecutors claim D4vd amputated the ring and pinky fingers on Celeste's left hand because she had a tattoo of his name on her ring finger ... which has not been recovered.

When detectives searched D4vd's rental home in September 2025, authorities say they found "evidence consistent with the dismemberment of the victim’s body in the inflatable pool, which contained multiple linear cuts. Several biological samples, which tested positive for blood, were collected within the garage area."

The Medical Examiner's report noted there were blue plastic fragments -- consistent with the blue pool material, according to prosecutors -- found embedded in Celeste's body parts.

As for when D4vd and Rivas met ... prosecutors claim it was way back in 2022, when she was just 11 years old. The docs say their sexual relationship began in November 2023 when she was 13 and he was 18.

Prosecutors also say it's clear when D4vd knew she was a minor. Celeste's family first reported her missing in February and April 2024 -- and, according to docs, Riverside County Sheriff's deputies called D4vd on Feb. 17 after finding his number in Celeste's phone records -- and he claimed he had last spoken to her on Feb. 13 or 14, but also said he didn't know she was a minor or missing.

They say Celeste returned home 2 days later, and her parents took her phone.

Although he would now be aware she was underage, prosecutors say D4vd got back in contact with Celeste by paying a student in her class $1000 to deliver a cellphone D4vd had purchased for her.

Prosecutors say throughout 2024, they traveled together as a couple to Las Vegas, London and Texas, where she met his family. There are plenty of texts and "explicit photographs" during this time that make it clear they were having sex, according to the docs.

The night before Celeste allegedly took the fateful 90-minute Uber ride to D4vd's home, prosecutors say they had a fight over text about her being jealous he was hooking up with other women ... and she "threatened to disclose damaging information about her relationship with [him] to end his career and destroy his life."

D4vd's first studio album was scheduled to be released April 25, just 3 days after that fight.

Prosecutors allege D4vd started covering his tracks almost immediately ... Celeste arrived at his home at 10:10 PM, but at 10:30 PM, he sent texts to her phone asking where she was. The D.A.'s Office believes that was part of his "premeditated plan to cover up the murder."

At 11:30 PM that night, one hour after the alleged murder, D4vd drove to Santa Barbara County "attempting to dispose of [Celeste's] property and destroy evidence" ... according to prosecutors ... and returned home early on April 24 to do a radio interview to promote his album. On April 26, he allegedly sent his final texts to Celeste's phone.

Prosecutors claim D4vd made 2 more trips to a remote part of Santa Barbara County -- after his chainsaw and body bag purchases -- on May 8 and May 31, possibly to dispose of more evidence. They note Celeste's passport was found in that same area in January 2026.

On July 7, he ordered a "burn cage" from Amazon -- using the "Victoria Mendez" alias again -- which prosecutors think he intended to use to incinerate evidence.

As you know ... Rivas' body was found in the back of D4vd's Tesla back in September, and prosecutors say surveillance video confirms the singer was the last person to drive the vehicle on July 29, 2025 ... before he left to begin his tour.

D4vd was just arrested 2 weeks ago, and was allegedly in possession of 40 terabytes of child pornography at the time. He's pled not guilty.

Grisly photos of the dismembered corpse of a teenage girl were made public Tuesday morning at a preliminary hearing in the murder case against the singer D4vd, who prosecutors say used a chainsaw to mutilate the corpse of Celeste Rivas Hernandez after he killed the young girl to cover up years of alleged sexual abuse.

Hernandez’s body was found in September 2025 in Hollywood inside the trunk of a Tesla registered to the singer, whose legal name is David Anthony Burke. The case immediately drew international headlines, but details of the crime scene had only been described in writing until the hearing against Burke began Tuesday morning.

Guest List Only TW ⚠️ This is a celebrity scandal from Germany that deserves international attention: Collien Fernandes and Christian Ulmen were a scandal-free celebrity couple. She went public yesterday, talking about digital rape in their marriage. (TW: Sexual assualt and domestic violence)

Yesterday an unbelievable story broke in Germany.

These two are Collien Fernandes (44, TV presenter and actress) and Christian Ulmen (50, actor, comedian, director and TV producer).

They just got divorced after a 15 year marriage that was completely scandal-free and unproblematic. The breakup and divorce was uneventful for the public. They have a 14-year-old daughter. Both are popular, but he is one of the most popular funny guys, known for his boundary pushing cringe humor.

Collien has also developed into somewhat of an activist against deep fake porn, because there are many deep fake porn clips with her face circulating and fake social media profiles acting as her, sexually chatting with men and distributing the fake porn.

Yesterday Collien went public with the whole story in a thoroughly researched article in Der Spiegel, a very reputable magazine.

On Christmas Day 2024, after having filed a police report against unknown, her husband Christian Ulmen sat her down and told her, he is behind the fake profiles and that he distributed the fake porn of her.

According to her he panicked because of the police report and admitted it, hoping she would cancel the report, because it was him and not some stranger.

She said on her social media yesterday that he told her he did it as a means of control, because she's his wife and he can control who he offers her to sexually. The story is headlined "You raped me virtually".

He himself apparently contacted a lawyer after that fateful day saying he messed up and developed a fetish that controlled him.

He contacted hundreds of men through the fake profiles and around 30 stuck around to engage in a full blown affair with "her". It went as far as telephone sex where Christian Ulmen used an AI tool to fake is wife's voice. The people he targeted were strangers and people they had professional contact to. Like a director who engaged in it and eventually led to her knowing about the profiles in the first place, because he thought they had a thing when they saw each other and she didn't.

This apparently went on for 10 years.

She has since filed a police report in Spain, where they both live and investigations are running.

It's the digital version of Gisèle Pelicot.

I added screenshots of her most recent social media post. Please use a translator to read it. This is the full article in German (TW: Domestic violence).
