The Celeste Rivas Saga

Published September 26, 2025 7:29 AM PDT
A private investigator has shed light on the unsettling case of Celeste Rivas, a teenager whose dismembered remains were shockingly discovered in a vehicle registered to singer D4vd earlier this month.
Licensed investigator Steve Fischer has shared key insights from his ongoing work, which includes tracking down images of the Tesla prior to its impoundment along with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) incident report detailing its abandonment.
I acquired photographs of #D4vd‘s 2023 Tesla Model X when it was towed and subsequently impounded. Additionally, I obtained a report from August 26, 2025, complaining about the vehicle’s abandoned status, along with the impound details. The informant merely mentioned a significant dent in the rear, without any reference to an odor. The tow report… pic.twitter.com/K2tB1tXzv9

The Tesla was identified as abandoned on a street in Hollywood Hills in early September, conveniently located near the residence rented by the singer.
Fischer, who specializes in missing persons, has also acquired documentation from the Los Angeles Department of Transportation regarding this complaint and the subsequent vehicle impound report.
The report indicated that the vehicle had a large dent at the back—visible in one of the photographs. Closer inspection reveals that the car is coated in dust, hinting that it had been stationary for an extended period.

Interestingly, there was no mention of any odor coming from the vehicle at the time it was reported abandoned. However, a strong smell later led the authorities to search the car located in a Hollywood tow yard, where they eventually unearthed Celeste’s dismembered and decomposed body from the trunk of the Tesla.
The initial complaint, logged on the afternoon of August 26, indicated that an officer examined the car the following day and issued a ticket. An additional ticket was written on September 3, before it was finally towed on September 5, with Celeste’s body being discovered on the 8th.
The incident report revealed no previous flags associated with the vehicle and confirmed it had not been reported stolen.
D4vd was reportedly out of town during the body’s discovery. In a subsequent response to the unfolding scandal, he has canceled his world tour, which likely reflects the gravity of the ongoing investigation. His connection to the case appears to be of a rather tenuous nature.
In relation to the inquiry, law enforcement has searched the residence rented by D4vd, scrutinizing the property for potential blood evidence, while movers were observed removing boxes from the location—perhaps a sign of impending relocation or a hurried escape.
We have attempted to reach out to Steve Fischer for further insights but have received no response to date.
