Investigation Intensifies After Teenage Girl with Matching Tattoo Found in Artist d4vd’s Tesla
Date: September 18, 2025
Executive Summary
Authorities have confirmed that a 15‑year‑old girl named Celeste Rivas was found deceased in a Tesla vehicle registered to singer‑songwriter d4vd (David Anthony Burke). A notable detail that has sparked widespread attention is that Celeste had a tattoo on her right index finger that read “Shhh…”, which matches a similar tattoo held by d4vd. While d4vd is reportedly cooperating with the investigation, no charges have been filed against him at this time. The case is under intense scrutiny as many questions remain unresolved, including how the remains came to be in the vehicle and what role, if any, the artist had in those events.
1. Background: Celeste Rivas
Celeste Rivas was reported missing from Lake Elsinore, California, in April 2024.
She was 15 when identified by forensic examiners after authorities located her in the Tesla.
Her disappearance had been open for over a year by the time her remains were discovered.
2. Discovery of the Vehicle
On September 8, 2025, a Tesla registered to d4vd was impounded at a tow facility in Hollywood after workers reported a strong odor coming from inside the vehicle.
The vehicle had been abandoned in the Hollywood Hills and was sitting there for some time before being impounded.
When opened, a decomposed body wrapped in a bag was found inside the vehicle’s front trunk (“frunk”).
3. Identification and Matching Tattoo
The medical examiner’s office confirmed that the remains belong to Celeste Rivas.
One of the identifying details was a tattoo on her right index finger that read “Shhh…”.
It is reported that d4vd also has a “Shhh…” tattoo in the same finger position.
Celeste’s mother has said that the tattoo on Celeste was in red ink, which has been a detail noted in media reports. Meanwhile, some sources suggest that d4vd’s matching ink is of a different color, but that distinction in reports is not uniformly confirmed.
4. What Has Been Confirmed
Authorities confirm the vehicle was registered in d4vd’s name.
The corpse was found in a severely deteriorated condition and had been there for several days.
Celeste is confirmed missing from 2024; the match of the tattoo helped in her identification.
D4vd’s representatives have said he is cooperating with the investigation.
As of now, the cause and manner of death have not been officially released. No suspect has been publicly named.
5. Unresolved Questions
Many critical questions have not yet been answered:
Was d4vd using the vehicle at the time the remains were placed inside, or was someone else involved?
How did the remains come to be in the frunk of the Tesla?
Why was the car abandoned in that location without earlier detection?
Is there surveillance or other evidence that could confirm who had access to the vehicle?
What is the cause of death, and whether foul play is involved?
6. Public Reaction and Impacts
Fans and the public are deeply concerned and calling for transparency. The matching tattoo detail has amplified the speculation.
Some of d4vd’s upcoming performance dates have reportedly been canceled or paused.
Brands or partnerships have been reviewing their associations with him pending outcome of the investigation.
Meanwhile, many are urging respect for the family of Celeste, calling for sensitivity in how the case is discussed.
7. Legal and Ethical Considerations
Ownership of the vehicle does not automatically imply criminal responsibility; investigators will need to establish whether there was direct involvement.
Ethical journalism demands reporting verified facts, avoiding jumping to conclusions based solely on coincidences such as matching tattoos.
The rights of the victim’s family to dignity and privacy should be respected.
8. Possible Scenarios Going Forward
Here are potential paths this situation might follow, based on the information currently available:
Scenario
What It Might Entail
Full exoneration of d4vd
Evidence shows he had no knowledge or involvement, and the vehicle was used by someone else without his consent.
Indirect link found
Someone close to him may have used the vehicle or been involved, which could complicate things legally and reputationally.
Pending forensic revelations
Cause of death and manner may lead to potential legal classification (accident, homicide, etc.).
Legal or civil claims
The family of Celeste may seek legal recourse depending on what investigation reveals.
Professional and public reputation fallout
Regardless of legal outcome, the artist’s public image and career may suffer.
9. Conclusion
The discovery of Celeste Rivas inside a car registered to d4vd, along with a matching tattoo, has created a deeply troubling case that continues to raise more questions than answers. While cooperation with investigators is a necessary first step, the public and justice system await more conclusive evidence to understand what happened. For now, what is certain is the need for careful and respectful investigation, and for holding to the principle of presumption until proven otherwise.
