LAPD captain Scot Williams reveals what cops saw when they found Celeste Rivas Hernandez’s body in d4vd’s car

Police have moved to address wild rumours that have been circulating after the discovery of Celeste Rivas Hernandez’s body in d4vd’s car.

The 14-year-old girl’s body was found by police in the boot of a Tesla belonging to the musician in September.

An investigation was launched into Celeste’s death, but no suspects have been charged in relation to the incident.

This week, rumours began circulating that the body was “frozen” when discovered by investigators. Some outlets also reported she had been decapitated.

Scot Williams, Los Angeles Police Department’s captain, has told People that these rumours are false.

“Celeste’s body was not frozen,” he said.

“She was not decapitated. The whole frozen thing doesn’t even make sense. Her body was in the car for weeks.

“Even if she had been frozen solid when she was put in the car (which there is no evidence to suggest she was), five or more weeks in the trunk of a car in sweltering heat in the middle of summer would not have resulted in a partially frozen body being discovered on September 8.”

Celeste was reported missing from her Lake Elsinore, California home on April 5, 2024, more than a year before her body was found.

On September 8 this year, her body was found in d4vd’s Telsa which had been impounded in the Hollywood Hills.

At this time, d4vd was on tour.

Celeste’s cause of death has not been revealed, but on November 24 LA’s medical examiner department said they received a court order to place a security hold on the case.

“No records or details associated with the case, including the cause and manner of death and Medical Examiner report, can be released or posted on the website until further notice,” the medical examiner said.

“The Department understands the public’s interest in this case and remains committed to transparency when possible. Information will be made available once the court order is lifted.”
