The case against D4vd involved far more grand jury testimony than previously known, with three panels meeting on seven separate occasions before the singer was arrested in April.
Newly unsealed court information shows that testimony was taken over 18 days, including five days in November, another five in December, and eight in February. A judge has now authorized a limited release of those transcripts.
The documents will remain out of public reach, and only the attorneys prosecuting and defending the case will receive access to the testimony.
Although authorities had said grand juries were convened during the months leading up to D4vd’s arrest, the full scope of those proceedings had not been disclosed. Law enforcement sources previously referred to the process as an “investigative grand jury.”
D4vd faces charges in the death of Celeste Rivas, whose body was discovered inside his Tesla last year.
Prosecutors allege that Rivas was a minor and had threatened to reveal potentially damaging information about an alleged relationship with the musician. They claim he invited her to his home in April 2025, killed her, cut up her body and concealed the remains in bags.
The singer has denied the accusations through his plea. He entered a “not guilty” plea and requested an immediate preliminary hearing.
