A 15-year-old reported missing more than a year ago has been formally identified as the decomposed body found in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to the singer-songwriter known as D4vd; a discovery that has forced investigators to retrace her final days and renewed scrutiny of the artist's past interviews and imagery.
Authorities say the remains were recovered after tow-yard staff reported a foul odour from an impounded Tesla on 8 September 2025. Forensic investigators at the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office later confirmed the victim's identity as Celeste Rivas Hernandez, while the cause and manner of death remain 'deferred' pending further testing.
