Summary
The fallout continues for D4vd as we go through the prosecution documents line by line. We learn in the singer can be tracked to Santa Barbara county. This is the area where Celeste's passport card was found by Caltrans workers. The area is only open sunrise to sunset. Could this be where D4vd tried to get rid of evidence? More late breaking info, video turns up in which D4vd passes off a stench from the rental home as a "bathroom" problem. Is he trying to pass of the smell of decomposing Celeste as a bodily function?
