D4vd backlash grows after new Discord screenshots show alarming messages

The scandal surrounding singer David Anthony Burke, better known as D4vd, has intensified as more Discord screenshots allegedly tied to him have emerged. Just days after the body of 13-year-old Celeste Rivas was found decomposed in a Tesla registered to the artist, social media has erupted over troubling online messages that appear to show D4vd’s darker side.

The newly resurfaced Discord posts, shared widely on X, feature conversations about gore, dismemberment, and death. Though not every screenshot is directly linked to D4vd, several claim to involve accounts associated with him, and fans are drawing disturbing parallels with the ongoing investigation.

Critics argue that law enforcement’s handling of the case reveals a double standard. “If it was a regular person they would’ve been arrested a long time ago,” one viral post read, accusing authorities of giving the singer special treatment due to his fame. Others expressed disbelief at how quickly the situation has escalated, with one fan remarking that “after all the screenshots I’ve seen within the last two days, it just gets worse and worse by the hour.”

The screenshots add to the growing online backlash against D4vd, who has already lost brand deals and seen live appearances cancelled. As these alleged Discord chats circulate, the pressure on investigators to clarify his role in the death of Celeste Rivas has only grown stronger. Whether or not these posts are authenticated, they have cemented the scandal as one of the most explosive controversies in music this year.
