Tonight on HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH: Poolhouse concludes his explosive D4vD Question series with the final installment of his examination of the legal and media narrative surrounding the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
Moving beyond the narrow question of the individual guilt and complicity of David Anthony Burke, aka D4vD, Poolhouse examines the larger industrial and cultural machinery that enabled the tragedy in the first place — arguing that discussing the D4vD case in isolation from the music industry is fundamentally absurd.
Through an analysis of public relations narratives, media manipulation, reputational shielding, and institutional distancing, Poolhouse explores what he describes as an ongoing effort to separate D4vD from the very system that created and profited from him, while potentially exculpating other adults who may have enabled — or even participated in — the circumstances surrounding the crime.
The episode culminates in the conclusion of the Deputy DA Beth Silverman Preliminary Evidentiary Briefing, in which Poolhouse lays out what he considers the missing dimension of the case: the broader ecosystem of influence, exploitation, and protection that remains largely unexamined — not only by the public, but even by law enforcement itself.
This is the conclusion to the the D4vD Question.

Robert Morgenroth “overheard by reporters” explaining why he was called to testify – Poolhouse believes this was a damage control leak to give Morgenroth cover for his appearance:
Beth Silverman confronts Rob Morgenroth’s attorney, Evan Jeness, about the “missing witness” she also represents:
Keep in mind that when the case began, we only heard about Josh Marshall being the manager of D4vd. Marshall claimed to “work remotely” and be unconnected from the case.
It wasn’t until Morgenroth appeared in court that his name appeared in reporting. Although I should note that the D4vd sleuths over at reddit had been floating his name from the jump.

Darkroom Records (often referred to as The Darkroom) is a full-service record label and management company founded by Justin Lubliner in 2014, known primarily as the partner label to Interscope Records that signed and developed Billie Eilish. It functions as a boutique, forward-thinking label focusing on artist development, creative strategies, and digital-era branding.
Credited for the development of D4vD’s market expansion and development as an artist. Speculated to be the “missing witness” who was refusing to cooperate with Beth Silverman’s grand jury in December 2025. Rumored to be in some type of relationship with Robert Morgenroth, as well as possibly housing or sharing a house with 14yo victim Celeste Rivas in the summer prior to her death.

Poolhouse is back on the case, making the argument that the tragic death of cannot be separated from the music industry apparatus that surrounded and supported — from housing arrangements to tour logistics that prosecutors themselves claim Celeste became involved in. This episode asks a difficult question: why does the prosecution’s recent filing appear so determined to obscure the role of the industry and its surrounding network? Poolhouse digs into the identity of a mysterious grand jury witness represented by powerhouse attorney, while tracing patterns that suggest a coordinated choreography of public relations strategies seemingly designed to shield institutions and industry players rather than the vulnerable people caught within them. As the threads begin to connect, Here Comes the Backklash pushes past surface narratives to ask the questions no one else seems willing to ask — in pursuit of the fuller truth behind an increasingly complicated story.

Poolhouse returns to the airwaves for a deeper investigation into not only the tragic death of , but the growing mysteries surrounding the investigation itself. Responding directly to critics who accuse him of defending the heinous crimes that David Burke is accused of, Poolhouse makes clear that his position is simple: true justice requires hearing the entire case before rushing to judgment — and the defense has not yet even presented its side.
Through a critical examination of recent prosecutorial filings, the show explores the known facts, unanswered questions, and troubling inconsistencies surrounding the relationship between and Celeste Hernandez.
The D4vD #3 and #4 also begin unpacking emerging reports regarding management connections, public narratives, and the information that remains absent from public view, as Here Comes the Backklash continues its uncompromising search for the whole story.

Poolhouse is back and fired up, as he reviews some of the updates in both the Celeste Revas Hernandez and Rob & Michelle Reiner murder cases. Is it fair of Poolhouse to remain open-minded in both cases, despite vociferous claims of the guilt of the suspects in each case, according to LA County prosecutors? Or is he just a big fan of murderers and letting guilty people off the hook? If you are leaning more toward the latter, this episode may not be for you!
FROM THE CASE FILES:
Steve Fischer (private investigator connected to the case) claims that an email was sent to Mogul Vision (D4vD’s management company) during Celeste’s first disappearance in 2024. He claims this email was sent to Josh Marshall and another person (most likely Rob Morgenroth, the other manager who Fischer seldom will name):
Why was Mogul Vision dispatching David Burke to schools? Especially noteworthy given prosecution’s allegation that Burke paid a middle school aged student in Lake Elsinore $1000 to deliver a mobile phone he purchased to Celeste Rivas:
And guess who was with D4vD at these school visits promo stops:
Prosecutor’s also allege Celeste Revas was with David Burke on tour in Las Vegas, London, NYC. Are we to believe Mogul Vision management was completely unaware of the minor in David’s entourage?
Meanwhile, Rob and Michele Reiner – medical examiner report remains INCOMPLETE:
I’m calling that a procedural curiosity…for now.

WARNING: Poolhouse must be hovering over a target cuz they hacked ya boy’s mic. As always, you can blame our professional gangstalkers for these light technical mishaps
Tonight, Poolhouse continues his meditation on the criminal case against David Burke, aka D4vD, in connection with the seduction and murder of Celeste Revas Hernandez. He analyzes last week’s initial court proceedings to glean Deputy D.A. Beth Silverman’s actual evidentiary stance—because despite the public’s determined rush to judgment, here at BACKKLASH we prefer to gather the full truth before arriving at any conclusion, if we ever get there at all.
Is there a pattern of media outlets obscuring key figures connected to D4vD at the time of Celeste’s murder? How can we achieve “justice for Celeste” without hearing from figures like Robert Morgenroth or Neo Langston? Poolhouse examines the bigger picture and the subtext between the lines that pitchfork-wielding true crime takesellers have missed.
Plus: Beth Silverman’s reputation for courtroom transgression.

Since the tragic discovery of Celeste Revas Hernandez in the trunk of a car linked to rising artist D4VD, aka David Burke, the public narrative has rushed toward one question: guilt.
But Poolhouse, in his infinite wisdom, knows you can’t force a timetable on the truth, and the truth is key to arriving at true justice for the murder of Celeste Hernandez.
While the world dissects lyrics, timelines, and the mountains of circumstantial evidence surrounding the case, Poolhouse adopts a different angle.
Whether guilty or innocent of the crimes he stands accused of, D4VD’s life of luxury and his glorification of gore and vice through his artistry are now being scrutinized by the public. But what kind of industry produces a figure like D4VD?
What pressures, incentives, connections and distortions shape the lives inside the music machine?
The question is not one of guilt or innocence, per se, as that will bear out in due time. Here, Poolhouse examines whether or not the dark currents of industry who have invested themselves in D4VD’s rise to fame will ever allow the entire truth to come out.
In this first installment, Poolhouse begins with the backdrop—D4VD as a product of a corporate culture machine–and begins examining whether the environment surrounding the accused can actually be separated from the tragedy itself.
This is Poolhouse on the D4VD Question.
Only on HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH.

Poolhouse returns to the airwaves with an incendiary broadcast to shock you out of your triple-quadruple-septuple Aries stellium-induced fatigue.
Twelve days have transpired since the last broadcast—perhaps the most explosive and eventful period in the Iran War thus far.
And yet, not a peep from our intrepid, octolectics-pilled wartime analyst?
Not a word on the “Easter Sunday post,” the fake peace talks, the attempted blockade of a blockade, the social media threats to end civilizations, the picking of fights with the Pope, nor the whole, uh… Jesus thing?
Nope. Not really. For what has actually changed, despite all the bluster?
The Strait remains closed (but not closed).
Israel continues its aggression against Lebanon.
The fate of the region remains uncertain.
The stalemate continues. And whether it will unravel into chaos or fizzle out into a “nothingburger quagmire”—albeit one with a quiet malignancy, as its ramifications are digested by the world commercial system—remains to be seen.
Poolhouse isn’t one to sell you on a future that is. He’s here to challenge you to imagine the future that could be.
One where the “moral authority” of the Right is finally exposed for what it is—an authoritarian corruption of virtue, not unlike the Left’s own destructive embrace of moral authority.
But this is not “woke leftism.” This is Christian nihilism. And if slaughtering innocents, tearing up treaties, and behaving like rogues on the world stage is what the “moralizers” preach, then it is high time for us to imagine a world where the demoralizers are in control.

I WAS THERE BACKKCATOLOGUE:
https://backklash.substack.com/s/i-was-there
When Poolhouse took to the airwaves one month ago with his first EMERGENCY WARTIME BROADCAST…the response was:
“Well, aren’t you being a bit HISTRIONIC?”
And:
“It’s gonna be over this weekend, bro.”
Or:
“It’s just a regime change war, dude.”
And also:
“It’ll probably be over in ten days, my guy.”
And eventually:
“You’re still paying attention to that thing? Nah man, it’s a NOTHINGBURGER.”
with increasing agitation and anxiety in their voice
“It’ll be over this month!”
nervously eyes the Strait of Hormuz entering a second month of bottleneck
“Come on, Poolhouse…you know as well as we do…nothing…ever…happens…”
Over that time, Poolhouse has remained doggedly consistent in his wartime broadcasts (OK, maybe the “emergency” part was a little dramatic):
The purpose of this war is chaos, destabilization, destruction, and delivering a final blow to American hegemony.
The battle for the Strait of Hormuz is the true war.
The war is downstream of a realignment occurring within the core of the planetary commercial system, aka the dreaded OCTOLECTIC.
As Poolhouse has pulled on threads and stress-tested the propaganda floating about in the fog of war, he has begun to sketch for you a portrait of a crisis engineered by a hidden hand, almost certainly operating out of the back offices of City of London insurance brokers.
Is the true nature of the Iranian incursion a final power play to delay the inevitable collapse of the petrodollar? A menacing act of sabotage by duplicitous Zionist actors? The fulfillment of eschatology? The inaugural spectacle of the New (Multipolar) World Order?
Only your homie, your boy, your bro, Dr. Rev. DJ Poolhouse, has the brilliance and the balls to tell it to you straight.
Your favorite takesellers are compromised by their own vested interests in possible strategic outcomes, leaving a wide-open market opportunity for takecels with insight to lay out the twisted machinations at play in this grim wartime scenario.
Tonight’s WARTIME BROADCAST is a brilliant synthesis of Poolhousean wartime analysis so far, as the crisis sputters on, Trump crashes out, and the Art of the Deal gets blown to smithereens by the Age of the Unreal.
But Poolhouse is never one to despair nor to blackpill…for this is BACKKLASH…a pop art pirate radio frequency meant to be heard by the ears of the EXCEPTIONAL.
That could be YOU…if you’re willing to TUNE IN to the signal…
