Rapper D4vd arrested in Los Angeles for suspected murder after body found in his Tesla

Los Angeles police arrested rapper D4vd, whose legal name is David Burke, on Thursday as a suspect in the death of a young Hispanic woman. Her body was discovered months earlier in the trunk of a Tesla registered to the musician. The vehicle had been parked on a public street for weeks before being towed in September 2025, when the human remains were found in an advanced state of decomposition. The woman's disappearance had been reported in 2024, but her body wasn't located in the car until that September discovery. Burke remains in custody without bail, and police will present his case to prosecutors on Monday. Authorities haven't specified what evidence prompted the arrest. In a separate statement, Martin Urrutia expressed frustration with social media platforms, saying society would change without TikTok and Instagram.
