Episode 461: D4vd Uses Celeste’s Voice In New Songs Months Before Her Body Is Found? + New Updates From Police
It is not until Spetmber 17th, 2025 that the body found in D4vd’s Tesla is identified as 14 year old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
And she has been missing for over a year.
The last time her family saw her in person seems to be in April of 2024 though her family has remained out of the public eye with no official statements.
The police are quiet. The medical examiner’s are quiet. David and his team are quiet. And Celeste’s family is quiet.
The media and netizens, basically the general public, is not. People start developing their own assumptions and conclusions to the point where there’s about five main theories floating around online.
One, he killed her for fame.
Two, he’s innocent.
Three, he’s involved but her death was an accident and he couldn’t call for an ambulance or authorities because she was a missing teen.
Four, he murdered her and disposed of her body.
Five, there is a lot more that we don’t know and there are other people that are heavily involved.
This is what the internet thinks happened to Celeste Rivas Hernandez, the 14 year old girl found deceased in the trunk of D4vd’s car.
