A homicide detective testified Burke ordered a body bag, chainsaws, an inflatable pool and a shovel online under an alias, using his own bank cards, and had them delivered to his Hollywood home. Prosecutors allege Burke used these items to dismember Rivas Hernandez's body after stabbing her to death, fearing she would expose their relationship and harm his music career. Evidence presented includes the discovery of most ordered items in Burke's garage, a body bag matching one containing the victim's remains in his Tesla, and a 'Celeste' tattoo on Burke's finger. Burke has pleaded not guilty to murder, continuous sexual abuse of a child and unlawful mutilation of human remains, with his attorneys denying he caused Rivas Hernandez's death.
