Possible Celeste Rivas Sighting at D4vd Concert, Closes Window on Death Timeline

A girl who looks a lot like Celeste Rivas was spotted at a D4vd concert in late August ... and if it's her, it would really close the window on when she died.

TMZ just posted a video which shows a girl, really similar to CR, at his concert on August 24th.

From what I can see in photos, there is no driveway, there are three single car garage doors right on the street and I suspect that hood frowns on street parking, it’s lacking, or nimby’s report quickly. Idk why he wouldnt use the garage but maybe it wasn’t available.

From a Google search is appears there is an LA wide regulation that vehicles parked along any public street or alley must be moved every 72 hours. Apparently it is very strictly enforced.

I am thinking DAB may have had multiple vehicles and not enough space to garage them all

I think the odour would have been unpleasant to live with. It wouldn't just stay in the garage if there was a connecting door.

MOO

OK, so who is the guy next to her on the balcony? Are those "back stage" spots for staff?

LE has a lot to look at here. There will be records and testimony. It's going to take some time to sort this one out.

A lot to sift through !

I am curious to know who tipped off TMZ that CR was the person in the Tesla.

Celeste Rivas Death Investigation Focuses on Runaway Past, 'Troubled Home'

Celeste Rivas, the 15-year-old girl found dead in the trunk of singer D4vd's Tesla, ran away "multiple times" because of trouble at home ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

www.tmz.com

"... Our sources say the way Celeste was able to navigate on her own was by having "multiple fake ID's," in an attempt to present much older than she was.
"..... there's lots of evidence Celeste comes from a "troubled home," and that may have triggered her desire to run away.
What's unclear is if the family called cops in Hollywood when Celeste disappeared in spring 2024, to find out where she had been staying when they found her in February...."

If the family contacted LE in April there should be a record at the police dept.?
The liquor store owner says her sister came to look at his store footage to see where Celeste went (& I'd imagine with whom she may have left, etc.).

Who was the source for Celeste finding fake ID's ?
Did David help her find them ?
Were there other people surrounding David who were enablers ?

Still so many questions.
Imo.

It's actually really good news that someone was concerned enough to speak out.

This is definitely one of those cases where every update raises way more questions than it answers

 

[Valiant]

Think about this: If the singer did do this, and it wasn't planned ahead, and happened in the house, how would he get rid of the body?
There's probably always some combination of entourage/hangers on always around.
That's my opinion on why the body remained in the car, especially if no one else knew about her death.

Its a complicated version of the standard homicide investigation though.

Establish the time and manner of death.

Establish motives, opportunities and alibi's

Collect documentary and digital evidence and align it to the verbal testimony. Who is lying?

If this girl hypothetically went on tour with him and was moved by him across state lines, for the purpose of engaging in his "relationship" with her... then LE could charge him and/or his manager with trafficking a minor. LE is being careful and methodical.

So fun story. I live about as far away from Hollywood as a person can get, other side of the country. I tipped TMZ off in college, about something, and they ran the story. I just happened to know something because of something I heard, then I put 2 and 2 together, and because I was young, of course the first thing I did was email Harvey. My guess would be one of her friends or someone in her age group. Seems like her being around him wasn't exactly a secret.

A liquor store owner near Celeste's school bus stop recalled one incident on March 19, 2024, when her sister came in to review security footage in a desperate attempt to trace Celeste's steps after she fled.

Her middle school teacher also told TMZ that Celeste had previously vanished in January 2024.

Police eventually found her in the Hollywood Hills the following month and returned her home.

Notably, D4vd also lives in the Hollywood Hills. Celeste later disappeared for the last time in April.

It remains unclear if the family contacted Los Angeles police during that spring disappearance to determine where Celeste had been staying after she was found in February.

Celeste was allegedly able to move around undetected by using 'multiple fake IDs' to make herself appear older than she was.
D4vd case twist: Teen found in his Tesla trunk fled 'troubled home'

Not casting aspersions at victim family but I do wonder if there was just a D4vd alienating her from family problem or if there were other underlying issues at home that caused an 11 year old girl to be susceptible to manipulations from the older DAB.

 

[PNW]

My daughter plays the online game Fortnight and she said he has been online playing for the past two days.
If true, and my daughter wouldn't lie, he doesn't seem very concerned, does he?

I mean, what should he be doing? He’s probably stuck at home.

 

[PNW]

IMO - “But you only open up when you’re high” seems to point to drugs to me. MOO

Weed imo

 

[LadyL]

I wonder if LE is keeping eyes on him?

guaranteed 100% IMO

the siblings do seem to look for her but it seems as if a lot was going on.
this would have been a great publicity stunt for D4vd if some one did not wind up dead
because now all of us who never heard of him have, but all for the wrong reasons.

CR actually looks healthy in all the news pictures- not wasted away, drugged, distraught, etc. FWIW

the other crazy thing about this is that without a passport(?) she could not go to Canada Aug 29-30 and the tour folk were not near CA again....so how did she get in the Tesla in CA?

That would be less than 2 weeks before the car was towed. Reports say it was parked for 3 weeks.
