Timeline of Celeste Rivas Hernandez case before body found in D4vd’s car
FBI Finally Reveals D4vd’s CCTV Footage from His House — And It Shocks Everyone
What began as whispers on Discord and TikTok has spiraled into one of the darkest scandals the music world has ever seen. D4vd, the rising Houston-born artist who skyrocketed from TikTok stardom to chart success, is now at the center of a nightmare: the disappearance and death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.
Her body, found inside the trunk of his Tesla, has ignited outrage, suspicion, and disbelief. And now, with the FBI confirming they’ve reviewed CCTV footage from D4vd’s rented house in Los Angeles, the story has become even more chilling.
The Discovery in the Tesla
September 8th started like any other day in Los Angeles. But by nightfall, everything had changed. Police located Celeste’s body in the trunk of D4vd’s Tesla, parked outside his rental property. The discovery wasn’t random — it came after weeks of digital breadcrumbs that fans, friends, and investigators pieced together from TikTok posts, Discord messages, and even livestream footage.
The Tesla itself became a silent witness. Its internal cameras, GPS data, and motion sensors captured movements in and around the car — details that prosecutors say line up with Celeste’s disappearance.
Disturbing Online Clues
Before her death, D4vd’s online activity took a disturbing turn. He reposted clips from American Psycho, made dark jokes about jealousy, and even uploaded cryptic captions that fans now view as confessions. One image, showing a Hello Kitty doll, carried haunting weight once it was revealed Celeste herself was obsessed with Hello Kitty.
On Discord, Celeste’s friends say she had been talking to D4vd since she was 11. The relationship escalated over years, despite her being underage. Screenshots showed her mentioning staying over at his house, raising alarm that no one acted on soon enough.
The Last Livestream
One of the most damning pieces of evidence comes from a deleted livestream. On it, Celeste can be heard in the background — distressed, vulnerable, and pleading. Fans who recorded the stream before it was wiped have since shared it online, and those clips became the backbone of the case.
It’s rare that the internet itself provides such a clear window into a crime in progress. But here, between TikTok, Discord, and the livestream, the story unfolded almost in real-time.
The Raid on His House
The night police moved in on D4vd’s rental house was chaos. Neighbors reported black SUVs, flashing lights, and agents hauling boxes of evidence out the door. Inside, investigators reportedly found journals, electronics, and more CCTV footage — all now in FBI custody.
But it was the home’s exterior cameras that proved most shocking. Footage allegedly shows Celeste entering the property but never leaving. That detail, combined with the Tesla evidence, left little doubt that something horrific happened behind closed doors.
The Fallout
The music industry was quick to cut ties. Tour dates were canceled overnight, streaming platforms quietly removed promotional banners, and sponsors walked away. What was supposed to be the peak of D4vd’s young career collapsed in a matter of hours.
Outside, fans and community members gathered for a vigil. Candles, posters, and Hello Kitty tributes lined the street. People cried not only for Celeste, but for the terrifying reminder of how fame, power, and unchecked online connections can spiral into tragedy.
Unanswered Questions
Even with CCTV footage, livestreams, and Tesla data, there are still questions. How long did people in D4vd’s circle know about Celeste? Could the industry have stepped in earlier? And most haunting of all — how many warning signs were missed?
The case now sits in the hands of the courts, but one thing is certain: the FBI’s reveal of what happened at that rented Los Angeles house has changed everything.
What was once just rumor and speculation is now hard evidence. And it leaves fans, family, and the music world asking the same question — how did no one stop this sooner?
