Having no idea that Helen Brach, multimillionaire widow and heiress to her husbands family fortune has been missing since 1974 I became fascinated with her life story. Even though the EJ Brach & Sons confectioners make the egregious product, Candy Corn (neither candy nor corn) every missing person deserves to be found and able to rest. Helen's life was fascinating from her strong belief in other worldly things like mediumship, automatic writing and seances, she was a lovely and generous benefactor to family, friends and those in her employ. Maybe too genreous. Hear Helen's story here Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

The teenage years can be difficult for parents as well as the kids going through so many physical and emotional changes. Celeste's parents tried to keep their strong willed daughter at home, safe and under their watch. When she told them she had a "boyfriend," they took her phone away. R&B singer D4vd paid a student at her school to give her a phone he bought for her to use exclusively with him. On February 14, 2024 D4vd sent an Uber to pick her up and bring her to his home in the Hollywood Hills. They named their plan "Operation Awesome." She was 13 years old and he was 19. She returned home to her Riverside County home in Lake Elsinore a few days later after her parents reported her missing the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. She left again on March 19, 2024. And again on April 5, 2024. Always reported to the Sheriffs Department. She and D4vd were dramatic and tumultuous and neither of them had the emotional intelligence to be in a "relationship." No ones brains were fully developed. Prosecutors believe on or about April 23, 2025 D4vd sent an Uber to Celeste's home in Lake Elsinore, 80 miles from his home in Hollywood to bring her to his home for a confrontation. Digital communications show that Celeste was angry at being rejected by D4vd and he was feeling threatened as she said she would tell the world he was sleeping with her an underage girl. The exact dates and what for sure happened are not fully known but you can hear how a 14 year old Celeste ended up in the front trunk of a Tesla owned by David Burke, AKA D4vd, decomposed and found one day before what would have been her 15 birthday. A year where other 15 year olds are celebrated with a Quinceanera ceremony. Even though a judge has decided that there is enough evidence to remand David Anthony Burke over for trial, there are details in the timeline that are still missing. If YOU have any information about Celeste's case please contact LAPD South Bureau Homicide Division 323-786-5100 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
