Summary
The silence around the death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez is starting to break — and what’s coming out isn’t helping D4vd’s case.
In this episode, we break down the latest developments in the investigation into how Celeste ended up dead in the trunk of a Tesla registered to music artist David Anthony Burke (aka D4vd).
First, Josh Marshall, D4vd’s manager, has finally spoken publicly — but not through press or legal channels. Instead, he dropped a series of TikTok comment replies, denying involvement, claiming he never lived at the Hollywood Hills house, and insisting he had no knowledge of Celeste’s presence. His name was on the lease, but he says he worked remotely, lived out of state, and leased the house for “administrative reasons.”
Then, we get key updates from LAPD, who now confirm that someone deliberately placed Celeste’s body in the trunk. The case remains open, and while no one has been charged yet, officials say they’re “looking into everything.” A separate police official even used the word “homicide” on-air — though the coroner’s report still lists the cause of death as pending.
We also discuss new footage, including CCTV of Celeste running away, and a viral video of D4vd freezing when approached by a fan who resembled her. Add in death certificate details, forensic questions, and the growing suspicion around silence — and this story keeps unraveling.
No speculation, no spin — just confirmed developments and what they mean for accountability.

| 0:55.9 | It was tucked away in the paperwork. |
| 0:58.4 | He's a guy whose name was on the lease of that $20,000 a month mansion and the Hollywood Hills |

| 1:05.7 | The house where they reportedly searched for blood. |
