A black 2023 Tesla Model sat abandoned for months on Bluebird Avenue in the Hollywood Hills before being taken to a Los Angeles impound lot in September 2025, where a grim discovery would soon follow. Five days after arriving at the lot, employees noticed a foul odour coming from the vehicle and called police.
Inside the front trunk, on 8 September 2025, authorities found two cadaver bags containing the severely decomposed and decapitated body of a 15-year-old named Celeste Rivas, a runaway who had reportedly been missing since April 2024.
