Prosecutors: D4vd wanted to silence his 14-year-old girlfriend Celeste Rivas Hernandez

D4vd stabbed his 14-year-old girlfriend and then dismembered her body, prosecutors say.

According to the indictment, the artist accused of murder met Celeste Rivas Hernandez when she was 11 and began sexually abusing her when she was 13 and he was 18. Prosecutors say they have text messages and pictures that show they had a sexual relationship.

The text messages show that the 14-year-old was jealous of D4vd's relationships with other women. Prosecutors say she threatened to reveal the truth about their relationship to "end his career and ruin his life."

The day after her death, the artist reportedly held a release party for his first full-length album.

D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, denies the allegations.
