‘Stop looking for her’: Celeste Rivas' mom received disturbing call; D4vd case gets a twist
A source close to Celeste Rivas' mother said the family was aware of her involvement with D4vd.
The body of a 15-year-old girl, identified as Celeste Rivas, was found in the trunk of a car belonging to rising music artist D4vd on September 8. According to The U.S. Sun, Celeste had been reported missing in April 2024, and her family had made several social media appeals for help. These posts were later taken down.
A source close to Celeste’s mother told the outlet that the family was aware of her involvement with David Burke, known professionally as D4vd.
The source said, “I still don't know a lot, but I don't understand why the police didn't do more. For a period, Celeste came back home by herself and stayed with her mom, but the police weren't involved. Why didn't they ask her, ‘Where were you? Are you okay? I don't know when she came back, but then she disappeared again and went back to him.”
The source also claimed that someone had contacted Celeste’s mother, urging her to stop searching.
“I know someone called her mom and said, 'stop looking for her, she's fine.' They told the family to take down the social media posts about her being missing,” the source added.
It remains unclear who the caller was or whether they had any connection to D4vd.
