American singer D4vd could soon face criminal charges in connection with the death of Celeste Rivas, as a grand jury empowered to rule on indictments is currently continuing its review of the case. According to several sources cited by TMZ, authorities believe they have sufficient elements to consider a formal indictment.
Contrary to some information that circulated earlier, the grand jury at work would not be purely investigative in nature. Rather, it is said to be a grand jury with the authority to vote on indictments, a key step in the American judicial system. The case is reportedly being closely followed by prosecutor Beth Silverman, who considers D4vd to be involved in the circumstances that led to Rivas’ death.
Earlier this month, the artist’s day-to-day manager, Robert Morgenroth, was questioned over several days. Exchanges reported outside the courtroom suggest that investigators focused on the failure to report the incident to authorities at the time of the events. Morgenroth is said to have argued that his role was primarily to ensure the continuity of the artist’s tour, rather than to intervene on a legal level.
It should also be recalled that several macabre discoveries were made in the house rented by the artist, including an industrial-grade incinerator.
In this type of proceeding, the targets of a grand jury investigation generally cannot present their version of events, which gives the prosecution a notable advantage. Informal discussions suggest that additional witnesses could be summoned in the coming months, possibly until February, which would delay any final decision.
At this stage, no formal charges have been filed, and D4vd has not publicly commented on the situation.
