D4vd, the singer known for 'Romantic Homicide,' has changed his legal representation as his original attorneys withdrew from the murder case involving Celeste Rivas Hernandez. During a court appearance, it was revealed that D4vd requested a public defender, and the Los Angeles County Public Defender's Office has taken over his defense. D4vd faces multiple serious charges, including murder and continuous sexual abuse of a minor, to which he has pleaded not guilty.
The case has drawn significant attention due to the nature of the allegations, including claims of a sexual relationship between D4vd and Hernandez when she was 13. The prosecution asserts that D4vd is guilty of the brutal murder, with evidence suggesting premeditation and attempts to cover up the crime. His next court date is scheduled for October 19, as the case progresses toward trial.
