(NewsNation) — Celeste Rivas Hernandez, the missing teen who was found dead in the trunk of rising musician D4vd’s Tesla, has finally been laid to rest.
Family gathered to mourn Rivas Hernandez Monday at Queen of Heaven Cemetery and Mortuary in Rowland Heights, California, according to NewsNation local affiliate KTLA.
Her funeral came a month after police discovered her body in a Tesla that belonged to singer D4vd, whose legal name is David Anthony Burke.
Rivas Hernandez had been missing from her home in Lake Elsinore since April 2024 when she was 13. Her body was found on Sept. 8 and it’s still unknown how the teen died. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner listed Rivas Hernandez’s cause of death as “deferred” and requested additional testing.
D4vd was on tour when police contacted him about Rivas Hernandez’s body being found and officers searched his Hollywood Hills home for evidence. The singer canceled the rest of his tour and is reportedly cooperating with police.
Police have not named any suspects in Rivas Hernandez’s death and D4vd has not been accused of any crime in connection with her body being found.
