Singer D4vd charged with murder

The 21-year-old musician appeared in a Los Angeles court on Monday to face a series of serious charges, including continuous sexual abuse of a child.

Prosecutors allege that Burke killed Hernandez after she threatened to expose their relationship, which began when she was 13.

Burke is facing the possibility of the death penalty or life in prison without parole if convicted.

The case has sent shockwaves through the music industry and prompted a fast trial request from the defense.
