rich 1.0 Celeste Rivas Hernandez loved to sing and dance. Friday nights were movie nights with her family. She had thick dark curls, a soft smile, and Hello Kitty slippers on the day she went missing. She was fourteen years old. Her family said she was beautiful and strong and that she always told them she loved them. She is not here to say any of it herself. The People’s Brief filed in the case against David Anthony Burke alleges that Celeste met him online when she was eleven. Prosecutors say the sexual abuse began when she was thirteen. They say she was isolated from her family, traveled with Burke to Las Vegas, London, and Texas, and was killed after she allegedly threatened to expose the relationship. Her body was reportedly found months later in a Tesla, so decomposed the medical examiner had to use dental records to identify her. She still had braces. Burke has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder with special circumstances, continuous sexual abuse of a child under fourteen, and unlawful mutilation of human remains. His attorneys say he did not cause her death. Your questions about this case are personal. You’re asking how a girl gets reported missing multiple times and nobody connects the dots. You’re asking how an adult man allegedly takes a child across state lines and to another country and no system intervenes. You’re asking what it means that people around him reportedly smelled something for weeks and never called anyone. You’re asking about the school friend who was allegedly paid a thousand dollars to deliver a phone. Robin Dreeke and I take on the questions that keep coming back to one truth: Celeste deserved every adult around her to do better.
