Unraveling the Mystery: Who Was Behind the Wheel of D4vd's Tesla?

Los Angeles, USATue Oct 21 2025

A private investigator, Steven Fischer, has come forward with a video that could be a crucial piece in the puzzle of Celeste Rivas' death.

The video, recorded on July 29, allegedly shows the last person to drive D4vd's Tesla before it was towed with Rivas' remains in the trunk.

The Mystery Deepens

The 15-year-old's death has been shrouded in mystery since her dismembered body was found in the trunk of the Tesla. D4vd, the rising R&B artist, has not been arrested or accused of any crime, but several factors have kept him in the public eye. These include:

  • A tattoo that matches the victim's
  • A police search of a property linked to him
  • The appearance of Rivas in photos with D4vd
  • The dark imagery and lyrics in some of his songs

Unanswered Questions

Rivas was reported missing before her remains were discovered. The cause of her death is still unknown and listed as pending in the medical examiner's database. This uncertainty has led police to caution that it's not even clear if her death was a homicide.

Fischer claims the video shows a person driving the Tesla, wearing distinctive clothing. He has photos from 12 hours earlier of someone at D4vd's house wearing the same outfit. Fischer has not named the person publicly but has given the video to the Los Angeles Police Department.

Police Investigation Continues

The Los Angeles Police Department has confirmed that Rivas' body was found in the front trunk area of a Tesla belonging to David Burke, D4vd's real name. The vehicle had been parked at the location from which it was towed for several weeks, so Rivas may have been deceased for weeks before the discovery. Police are still investigating and have not determined the cause or manner of Rivas' death.
