Hey everyone, I'm Ashley Banfield, and this is Drop Dead Serious.

Another day, another flurry of developments in the case of an up-and-coming R&B singer named David, spelled D4VD, any underage teen runaway who was found dead in the trunk of his Tesla.

That is a headline that this singer cannot escape, and nothing good is going to come of it.

But David has escaped the limelight.

He has been off the grid and out of sight ever since his house was raided, his concert tour was canceled,

and the badly decomposed remains of that young girl were shipped off to the medical examiner.

There has been so much talk about this case online.

But one thing that hasn't had much attention yet is the car the car itself and the stories

that that car can tell us even if the dead teenager can't it's a Tesla a 2023 model Y I actually

own the same car and I have been learning so much about the virtual treasure trove of data that my car collects and that my car sends out.

Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found in the frunk. That's the forward trunk. It was David's Tesla, and by all indications, Celeste had been in that frunk for a while,

locked in there, wrapped in plastic, baking in the Los Angeles summer sun. And here's why that

matters. What happened inside that car, the heat, the conditions, the rate of decomposition,

it changed the state of her remains.

And what's more, that Tesla itself may hold clues about who put her in there.

Data, location history, times that the trunk opened and closed, which car doors opened and closed.

Passenger, as well as driver's side door, might there have been two people?

Where had the car come from before being abandoned?

And that car might even tell us who was driving it when it was abandoned. And who closed

that trunk for the very last time. There are eight cameras around the outside of a Tesla.

And it can pull in video and pictures constantly. There's also a camera inside that Tesla.

Also can record pictures of who's driving.
