Singer D4vd has been arrested on suspicion of killing a 14-year-old girl whose decomposed body was found last year in an apparently abandoned Tesla registered to him that was towed from the Hollywood Hills, police said Thursday.As reported by the Hollywood Reporter, Los Angeles police shared in a statement, “Homicide Division have arrested David Burke, a 21-year-old resident of Los Angeles, for the murder of Celeste Rivas. Burke is being held without bail. The case will be presented to the District Attorney’s office on Monday for filing consideration.” News of D4vd’s arrest comes over seven months after the police first found the decomposing body of the 14-year-old in his car. As reported by NCB, the body of Celeste was found in the trunk of the singer’s abandoned car on September 8, 2025. The car was impounded at Hollywood Tow. Officers were called to the lot because of a foul odor coming from the vehicle. The singer had been under investigation by an LA County grand jury looking into the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. The probe was officially secret, but its existence – and the designation of D4vd as its target – was revealed on Feb. 25 when his mother, father and brother filed an objection in a Texas court to subpoenas demanding they testify.
