Remains found inside a car at a Los Angeles impound lot last week have been identified as those of a teenage girl who had been missing since April 2024, the authorities said this week. The car where her remains were found was registered to the singer D4vd, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s office said on Tuesday that the remains were found in a Tesla at the impound lot and that they were those of Celeste Rivas, who was reported missing on April 5, 2024, from Lake Elsinore, Calif., about 70 miles southeast of Los Angeles.

Officials had not yet determined how Celeste, who was 13 at the time of her disappearance, had died.

Her body was "severely decomposed” and appeared to have been inside the vehicle for an extended period of time, the medical examiner said.

The Tesla had been parked at an impound yard in West Hollywood since Sept. 5. The city had towed it there after responding to a citizen complaint about the car having been abandoned for more than 72 hours, the authorities said. It had not been reported stolen, Officer Drake Madison, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department, said.

A person familiar with the situation told The New York Times that the vehicle was registered to D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke and who has millions of followers on social media and music platforms. The person asked not to be identified in order to discuss an ongoing investigation.

Authorities have identified the body of a girl found in singer D4vd's Tesla after it was impounded at a Los Angeles tow yard, law enforcement told NBC Investigates.

The girl, 15-year-old Celeste Rivas, was identified through forensics. The county medical examiner is still working to determine a cause of death.

The decomposed body was found Sept. 8 after workers at Hollywood Tow reported a strong odor coming from the Tesla registered to the singer. Officers opened the front trunk, also known as a frunk, and found the remains in a bag, police said.

His reddit has an insane amount of incriminating evidence

A lot of his songs are very creepy now

I’m assuming those Tesla Sentenal mode videos are only stored locally. Would be crazy if video of him stuffing her in the trunk was up in the cloud somewhere.

Most disturbing part of the story is that black people are stealing emo rock away from angsty young white kids. My culture is not your costume!

JC. Don't know anything about Tesla. Can you just delete the video?
