Tesla
Additionally.. I'm really curious to see what data Tesla collected from these events, but, they should be able to get

• GPS routes & timestamps (timeline)
• Vehicle entry/exit logs (timeline)
• Sentry Mode video (if enabled, it records from cameras when motion is detected).
• Key fob / phone key access logs (to know whose device accessed the car, or if it was a key fob).
• Battery usage & charging station logs (timeline)

If Sentry Mode or Dashcam was running, there’s a high probability that video exists of:

• The individual(s) abandoning the Tesla,
• Person(s) near the trunk
• Any movement in/out of the car before it was towed.

What do you mean by “due to (the) technology the trunk… could possible have been opened without having to touch the car?”

It was mentioned further back and I can't find it but I've found a reference on YouTube for example.

re when she died

Do you think it could have been as far back as May?

From what I heard, the car started being parked on the street (in many places, a few days at a time) in MAY! So I've been wondering if perhaps this was when she died and was put in the car, and that's why it suddenly seemed to be parked everywhere EXCEPT at the house in the garage, or even in the driveway, or EVEN right in front of the house, in fact. I don't think any mention has been made of where it was parked BEFORE May, or whenever exactly it was that it began to be seen on the street, moving around.

So I'm thinking that it was parked in the garage or driveway, as people normally do, until one day, for some reason, they couldn't park it there anymore, probably around May, when someone or ones started moving it round n round.

Maybe because that's when they put her body in there.

I don't know if that's supported by the level of decomposition they finally found her body in though. But it sounds like it must have been very advanced, since I think it was disarticulated, leading to early reports of possible dismemberment. So I wonder what state they'd expect to find it in, if it had been in there since May.

For sure it's possible there's been no proof of life. I wonder when the damage to the car occurred.
Its a possibility she crashed out over breaking up or something, attacked the car when he or others were in it, ripped off wheel arches and causing other dents, then ultimately been reversed into resulting in the large impact at the back and her demise.
IMOO

 

[indicolite22]

It's been reported that Celeste had still been in contact with both friends and family up until the end of July/early August sometime, when all contact abruptly stopped, so I don't see her being dead in May.

According to a PI, a family member last texted with CR in early July, but that info is now called into question by the same PI. Apparently it's hard to find confirmation that she was still alive at any time in 2025.

OTOH, CR's school friends claim that she stopped responding to their messages in late July to early August 2025. Additionally, David's neighbor stated that he saw him and CR together regularly (near David's home) until a couple months ago.

The remains of Celeste Rivas, who was 13 when she was reported missing in early May 2024, were discovered in the front trunk of an impounded car registered to D4vd.

ADMIN NOTE

There is no MSM, LE, or other approved source that anyone, including d4vd, has been "cleared" in this case.

There are a couple of questionable sources that have zero links or quotes to support what they claim. At this time it appears to be a PR campaign trying to deflect, and it seems a couple of online publications have engaged in cookie-cutter reporting with nothing to back it up.

At this time, WS considers it RUMOR that LE has cleared anyone. Please do not discuss it further unless it appears in reputable MSM or with direct quotes from LE.

Interview

This interview includes him saying "I havnt aged in five years. He was 18 at the time. So mentally he's around 13.

He has said all along he's stunted, and has "sides" and personalities. What an incredible legal defence. "But I'm 13 in my head" and it's been consistent this whole time IMOO

I've never monetised accounts but a point of interest in this video is that he said "he lost all his money" from copyright infringements on YouTube which led him to music.

So instead of schooling or getting a real job he's allowed to play fortnight to make money?
Is this when thorn rose trust was created?

How are minors "earning money" playing video games? Would his parents have to have set up an account meaning his activities should have been viewable? What age can you intervenor a legal contract there? JMT

 

[Telltale]

It's been reported that Celeste had still been in contact with both friends and family up until the end of July/early August sometime, when all contact abruptly stopped, so I don't see her being dead in May.

Depends on the kind of contact. If somebody had hold of her devices, they could send messages as her.

That being said (allegedly) the last time a social media account thought to be Celestes did anything (liked a picture of D4vds) was the 31st July 2025. Which does support the theory something happened in early August.

Looking more closely at D4vds schedule around that date. There are two two-day gaps, I've included very rough travel time (venue > L.A > venue)
3rd - 4th August, (about 3/4hrs)
10th - 11th August (about 10hrs.)
Also no shows on the 7th, 14th, 18th, 21st, and 25th.

SBMFF

So if he hasn't aged in 13 yrs (in his head), his "sides" and personalities are (mentally) stunted... is that what made him think it was OK to be in an alleged sexual relationship with a child OK? Because he felt like he was closer to his age than he actually was in reality? Still doesn't make it OK IMO.

‘Romantic Homicide’ Hits Top 10: D4vd Surges On Spotify Amid Dead Body Investigation

Police found a decomposing body in a car registered under D4vd’s name earlier this month, which sparked an investigation and led the singer to cancel his tour.

www.forbes.com

“Romantic Homicide,” D4vd’s biggest hit that went viral on TikTok in 2022, hit No. 8 on Spotify’s U.S. daily songs chart Monday, the song’s highest peak in years.
“Romantic Homicide” was nowhere to be found on the Spotify charts before police found a body in a car belonging to the singer earlier this month, and the song has consistently risen since then, hitting the top ten this weekend.
D4vd’s other songs have also gotten a boost, including “Feel It,” which ranks No. 38 on the Spotify chart, and “Here With Me,” which is No. 39 as of Monday.
D4vd hit a new all-time high on the Spotify artists chart Monday, reaching No. 42, rising seven spots from the day prior.
The singer ranked much lower on the daily artists chart weeks ago, ranking No. 121 on Sept. 7, the day before investigators found a body in his car.''
