Singer D4vd has abruptly bolted from his Hollywood Hills mansion just days after LAPD spent 12 hours searching the home for “blood evidence.” Detectives seized multiple items, including a laptop, in their investigation into the shocking case of Celeste Rivas Hernandez – a 14-year-old girl whose decomposed body was discovered in the trunk of D4vd’s Tesla earlier this month. The discovery raised disturbing questions about D4vd’s connection to Celeste, who vanished from Lake Elsinore more than a year ago. While police have not filed charges, and the cause of death remains undetermined, the singer canceled the rest of his tour, broke his $20,000-a-month lease, and has stayed silent publicly. Now, reports suggest he’s spending his time gaming on Roblox and Fortnite as the internet explodes with speculation, Reddit threads, and resurfaced videos that appear to show him with Celeste. In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield unpacks the timeline, the police raid, and the singer’s silence — with exclusive insight from TMZ’s Charles Latibeaudiere, former prosecutor Matt Murphy, and criminal defense attorney Sara Azari.
