@nbcla: The family of Celeste Rivas Hernandez issued a statement Monday calling for singer and TikTok star D4vd to face the death penalty for the 14-year-old girl's murder. In a statement released Monday on Celeste's birthday, her family said, "If the death penalty were activated, it would be perfect for this kind of human being, devoid of feelings and emptiness inside, and without conscience, who only caused pain to our daughter, our family, and the world that supports our precious daughter." Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman has said possible sentences, if Burke is convicted as charged, include life in prison without the possibility of parole or the death penalty. A decision will be made at a later date. Tap the link in bio for more. #nbcla

Hold on. You guys are tripping. Talking about what the parents did...but as bad as it was for them to let her be with someone older, etc... absolutely NOTHING THEY DID, made HIM murder that girl, dismember her, and discard her body like so much garbage, in his car. Are you guys okay?

She was 11 when they let her go with him. Those weren't parents. They deserve harsh jail time too.

ACWilliams1989 :
he does deserve the death penalty but there should also be consequences for the parents for failing to protect her, (negligence) they knew about their relationship and definitely could’ve put him on the registry…
