🚨 CELESTE RIVAS HERNANDEZ’S FAMILY CALLS DEATH PENALTY “PERFECT” IF D4VD IS CONVICTED ⚖️
Just one day before Celeste would have turned 16, her family made a powerful statement about the punishment they believe would be appropriate if rapper D4vd is found guilty.
“If the death penalty were activated, it would be perfect,” the family said, while acknowledging that the decision ultimately rests with the California justice system.
D4vd, 21, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, has been charged with Celeste’s murder and faces additional serious charges. Prosecutors allege the teen was killed after threatening to expose an alleged relationship.
⚠️ The allegations have not been proven in court, and Burke is presumed innocent unless convicted.
The case is now heading toward trial, with prosecutors still deciding whether to seek the death penalty.
💔 A birthday that should have been a celebration has instead become another painful moment for Celeste’s family.
