Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

This case just ripped open in a way nobody was prepared for. New reporting from multiple major outlets—citing law-enforcement sources with direct knowledge—now suggests investigators are dealing with something far darker, far more deliberate, and far more coordinated than anyone understood when 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez was first found inside a Tesla registered to rising music artist D4vd.
According to these sources, forensic findings reportedly show indicators consistent with dismemberment and possible freezing or refrigeration before Celeste’s remains were placed in the vehicle. These claims have not been confirmed publicly by LAPD or the medical examiner, but they have been repeatedly reported through investigators speaking privately to outlets like People, NBC4, ABC7, and The Houston Chronicle. And if those reports are accurate, they change everything about how this case is being viewed.
Investigators now reportedly believe Celeste may have died months earlier, possibly as far back as spring 2025, based on decomposition indicators described by these sources. Some insiders say this aligns with the possibility that the body may have been stored elsewhere before being transported. And several outlets are reporting that investigators suspect multiple people may have been involved in the concealment process.
People Magazine is reporting—again, citing law-enforcement insiders—that the artist has not cooperated with investigators. LAPD has not said that publicly, but if that is what detectives believe privately, it explains the escalation.
This episode breaks down everything we now know from these new reports: the forensic bombshells, the rewritten timeline, the multi-suspect angle, the surveillance investigators are analyzing, and what all of this means for where the case goes next.
Celeste deserved far better than what happened to her. And now, according to the people closest to this investigation, we’re finally beginning to understand just how dark this story really is.
