In early September 2025, police were called to an impound lot in Hollywood, California. The staff reported a horrible stench coming from a black Tesla that had been on the lot for three days. When officers opened the front trunk of the Tesla, they found the decomposing and dismembered remains of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. Shortly after, investigators learned that the Tesla belonged to 20-year-old singer David Anthony Burke aka D4vd. The investigation told the story of a teenage girl who’d been groomed, assaulted, and murdered before she even had the chance to grow up. Now, the community and the world await justice for Celeste.

This is her story.
