IN POLICE CUSTODY

Nathan Hochman says D4vd was lying in wait on April 23, 2025 ... and it appears that's when the D.A. says he killed her. He says another special circumstance was murder for financial gain.

LAPD Police Chief Jim McDonnell says there is evidence D4vd and Celeste had a sexual relationship.
