Manager of D4vd rents house that LAPD searched in Celeste Rivas investigation.
Authorities conducted a search at a Los Angeles home associated with the artist D4vd Wednesday night, as part of an ongoing investigation into the tragic death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas. Rivas’ decomposed remains were discovered in a Tesla vehicle owned by D4vd, leading to increased scrutiny surrounding the singer. The grim finding occurred approximately a week prior to the search.
Sources have indicated that D4vd had been residing at the property, which is currently rented by his manager, Josh Marshall. The singer, known for hits such as “Romantic Homicide,” shared images of the residence on social media earlier this year, which have been confirmed to match listings on real estate platforms. Authorities reportedly removed several items from the home, including a computer, although it remains unclear how long or under what circumstances D4vd had been living there.
Rivas had been missing since April 2024, having vanished from her family’s home in Lake Elsinore, California, approximately 76 miles southeast of where D4vd’s vehicle was found abandoned. Rivas was only 13 at the time of her disappearance. The identification of her remains was a significant development in a case that has drawn public attention and concern.
Reports have surfaced suggesting that D4vd has been cooperating with law enforcement officials in their investigation. Due to the circumstances surrounding Rivas’ death, he has decided to pause his scheduled world tour, reflecting the gravity of the situation.
Rivas’ mother previously stated that her daughter had been involved with someone named David. Notably, both Rivas and D4vd share a distinctive tattoo, “Shhh…,” inked on their right index fingers, a design popularized among various celebrities over the past two decades.
As the story evolves, details have emerged indicating that, in late 2023, D4vd released a song titled “Celeste _Demo unfin,” which features lyrics that appear to reference Rivas directly. This creative output has stirred additional interest in both the artist’s and Rivas’ story.
Media News Source has reached out to Universal Music Group, the label under which D4vd records, for further clarification regarding the situation and any statements they might wish to make. The investigation continues as authorities work to uncover the circumstances surrounding this unfolding tragedy.
