Teen Girl Discovered Deceased in Abandoned Tesla Linked to Popular Artist

A 14-year-old girl, identified as Celeste Rivas Hernandez, was found deceased inside rapper D4vd’s abandoned Tesla in Los Angeles. Authorities believe she had been dead for several weeks before her body was discovered. Her remains were located on September 8, just one day after her 15th birthday.

The discovery was made after the car was towed to a Hollywood tow yard. Police indicated that the vehicle had been parked at its previous location for an extended period, supporting the theory that the girl was deceased for multiple weeks prior to her body being found. The cause and manner of her death remain undetermined by the medical examiner, and investigations are ongoing. Authorities have not confirmed any criminal involvement related to her death beyond the concealment of her body.

D4vd, whose legal name is David Anthony Burke, has not been officially charged or named as a suspect. He had been cooperating with law enforcement during the investigation, which included a raid on his Hollywood Hills residence, where authorities seized several items of evidence. The relationship between the artist and the victim remains unclear, and officials have declined to comment on the nature of their connection.

Previous social media messages and unreleased tracks have surfaced, suggesting a rumored romantic connection between D4vd and Celeste before her death. The singer had mentioned the name “Celeste” in a song, and her mother noted that she had been dating someone named “David.” Despite this, authorities have refrained from speculating about their relationship.
