  • Celeste Rivas Case - Private Investigator Questions Circumstances of Teen’s Death in D4vd’s Tesla
    Oct 4 2025
    The sources collectively examine the high-profile and disturbing case of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, whose severely decomposed body was discovered inside the Tesla belonging to rising singer D4vd. The first source details the investigation, noting that the teen was a frequent runaway and had been missing for over a year before her remains were found in the car's trunk, emphasizing the role of private investigator Steve Fischer in scrutinizing the timeline and suggesting a possible overdose and subsequent concealment to hide an illicit relationship with the adult singer. The second source provides a forensic analysis of the case, explaining in depth how advanced decomposition—accelerated by heat—presents significant scientific challenges in determining the precise cause and manner of death, which currently limits the LAPD to treating the incident as a death investigation focused on the concealment of a body rather than homicide. Both sources highlight the intense public scrutiny surrounding D4vd, who hired a high-profile attorney, and the possibility that the cause of death may ultimately be ruled undetermined due to the lack of intact physical evidence.
