Celeste’s Autopsy Reveals Shocking Twist — Could D4vd Be Cleared?

In a surprising development that may shift the direction of a high-profile investigation, the autopsy of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez — whose body was found inside a Tesla registered to singer D4vd — has failed to determine a clear cause of death. The result has left the public and legal experts questioning whether the rising music star could ultimately be cleared of suspicion.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner released Celeste’s death certificate this week, confirming that the cause and manner of death are officially listed as “deferred.” This means that, at present, no conclusive explanation has been found for how she died — a fact that could significantly impact any future legal proceedings. More surprisingly, the report confirmed that Celeste was not pregnant at the time of her death, nor had she been within the past year, despite online speculation to the contrary.

Celeste’s body was discovered in early September inside the front trunk of a white Tesla Model X parked in a Hollywood impound lot. The vehicle, traced back to D4vd (real name David Anthony Burke), had been towed weeks earlier after neighbors reported a foul odor. When authorities opened the vehicle, they found Celeste’s body in a state of advanced decomposition, suggesting she had been dead for several weeks prior.

While the discovery instantly placed D4vd under public scrutiny, the medical examiner’s findings now raise questions about whether there is enough forensic evidence to hold him legally accountable — at least for now.

Legal analysts point out that without a determined cause of death — such as overdose, trauma, or foul play — prosecutors face an uphill battle in building a murder case. “If the autopsy doesn’t reveal a definitive cause, it’s extremely difficult to prove criminal liability,” said one legal expert. “You need a link between the suspect and the actual moment or method of death.”

This has led some to speculate that D4vd, who has not been charged and is said to be cooperating with authorities, could avoid prosecution if further forensic testing also yields inconclusive results.

However, the case is far from closed. Investigators are still awaiting toxicology and lab reports, which could take several more weeks. They are also continuing to review other evidence — including digital messages, surveillance footage, and items seized from D4vd’s home — to determine whether there is any indication of abuse, coercion, or concealment.

Meanwhile, public interest remains high. Fans and critics alike are analyzing online clues, including reports of matching tattoos and old Discord messages between D4vd and a girl believed to be Celeste. Some sources claim she used fake IDs to appear older, possibly misleading people in her social circle — including the singer himself.

Ultimately, while the deferred autopsy raises the possibility that D4vd could be cleared of the most serious suspicions, the case remains open — and any conclusions will depend on what else investigators uncover in the days and weeks ahead.
