Prosecutors say Burke is responsible for the death of Celeste Rivas-Hernandez, whose body was found in a Tesla registered in Burke’s name on the day she would have turned 15 years old.
On Wednesday, the Los Angeles County medical examiner announced that the victim’s cause of death was “multiple penetrating injuries caused by object(s),” and listed the manner of death as homicide. Court TV reviewed the medical examiner’s report, which found two “penetrating wounds of the torso with smooth edges that may represent sharp force injuries.”
