According to NBC News, the Los Angeles Police Department has named the 20-year-old musician as a suspect, though he has not been charged with any wrongdoing.

Law enforcement sources added that D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, has not been cooperating with the investigation.

Sources told ABC News that Hernandez's body was found dismembered, with authorities believing that multiple people were involved in the disposal of her body.

Hernandez's cause and manner of death have yet to be determined.

The teenager, who had been reported missing in April 2024, was found in September in the trunk of a Tesla that was registered to Burke.

At the time of the discovery, TMZ reported that Hernandez had a boyfriend named "David," and she and Burke both had "Shhh..." tattooed on their right index fingers.

The Romantic Homicide artist was on tour when police officers found Hernandez's body, and he has since called off the rest of the concert series amid the ongoing investigation.
