He let a homeless teenager move in, and police say it cost him his life.
In a quiet Florida retirement community, 67-year-old retired nurse John Torneo was found dead inside his own home. Detectives quickly focused on 19-year-old Julian Trevino, the teenager investigators say Torneo had been trying to help.
In this episode of Murder U, we break down the newly released details from the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, including what investigators say happened behind closed doors, the confession that followed Trevino’s arrest, and the sheriff’s message to the public as the case moves forward.

D4VD and the Death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez
Celeste Rivas Hernandez vanished at 14. A year later, her remains were found inside the trunk of a Tesla registered to music star D4VD.
Ten days after the discovery, investigators were searching the 20-year-old singer’s Hollywood Hills rental home for evidence of foul play. What they uncovered only deepened the mystery—and intensified scrutiny around D4VD’s role in the case.
Authorities now acknowledge that Celeste’s death is being investigated as a murder. As months have passed with no arrests, resurfaced videos and online activity have raised disturbing questions about the nature of Celeste’s connection to D4VD and how a child slipped through every layer of protection.
With rumors flooding social media, gossip columns uncovering new details, and evidence now being presented to a grand jury, pressure is mounting for answers—and accountability. Will Celeste Rivas Hernandez ever get justice?

Deadly School Day: The Apalachee High Rampage
A quiet Georgia high school becomes the site of the deadliest school shooting in the state’s history — after a series of warnings were missed.
On September 4, 2024, a mass shooting at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia left four people dead and multiple others wounded. The suspect, a 14-year-old student who had been enrolled at the school for less than a week, surrendered shortly after the attack. Days later, in a shocking development, his father was also arrested and charged in connection with the crime.
In this episode of Murder U, we examine what led up to the Apalachee High School shooting, including prior threats reported to authorities, breakdowns in communication between law enforcement and school officials, and the warning signs that went unheeded. We also explore the unprecedented charges filed against the suspect’s father — and what this case could mean for accountability in future school shootings.
