Dismembered Body Found in Singer’s Tesla Identified as Teen Girl

The 15-year-old victim was identified by a distinctive tattoo on her finger.

A dismembered body found in a Tesla belonging to R&B singer D4vd has been identified as a 15-year-old girl named Celeste Rivas, according to TMZ. Rivas’ body was discovered in a tow yard in Los Angeles on Sept. 8, after police were called about a stench emanating from the vehicle. The “severely decomposed” corpse was then discovered inside a bag in the Tesla Model Y, with a report suggesting the victim was “inside the vehicle for an extended period of time before being found.” The vehicle was later found to be registered to singer D4vd, real name David Anthony Burke. An earlier report said the victim was a female with wavy black hair and a distinctive tattoo on her right index finger. The tattoo, which read “Shhh…” was used by Rivas’ mother to identify the body as that of her missing daughter, who reportedly had a boyfriend named David and vanished in April 2024. Burke also has a tattoo on his finger with the letters “Shhh...” He is currently on a world tour and is not in the U.S., but is said to be “cooperating with authorities.” The vehicle has a Texas license plate and is registered to D4vd, and has not been reported stolen. The investigation continues.
