What D4VD Allegedly Ordered the Day After Celeste Died

A shovel from Home Depot via Postmates. Two chainsaws from Amazon. A body bag, heavy-duty laundry bags, and a blue inflatable pool — all allegedly purchased under the fake name "Victoria Mendez."

That's what prosecutors laid out in the People's Brief filed this week against David Anthony Burke. Not rumors. Not leaks. A nine-page filing signed by Deputy DA Beth Silverman, unsealed over the defense's objection, detailing the evidence the prosecution plans to present at the preliminary hearing.

The brief alleges Burke texted Celeste Rivas Hernandez's phone at 10:30 p.m. on April 23, 2025 — allegedly after she was already dead — to create a false timeline. It describes three separate trips to a remote area off SR-154 in Santa Barbara County. And it details how blue plastic fragments found in Celeste's remains were reportedly matched to the inflatable pool purchased under that fake name.

Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Tony Brueski to break down what the prosecution's roadmap tells us about premeditation, what the fake name reveals about consciousness of guilt, and what fifty-four search warrants say about the scope of this investigation.
