Feds ARREST D4vd’s Manager After Leaked Footage Shows Him ABDUCTING Celeste — He’s Facing LIFE

In a bombshell development that has sent shockwaves through the entertainment world, federal authorities have arrested the manager of rising artist D4vd after explosive leaked footage allegedly shows him abducting singer Celeste just days before her tragic death. The manager, whose identity is being withheld pending formal charges, is now facing multiple federal counts — including kidnapping and conspiracy — that could carry a sentence of life in prison.

The Shocking Discovery

The footage, which began circulating on encrypted social media platforms before being confirmed by investigators, shows what authorities have described as “clear and deliberate abduction.” In the video, Celeste appears visibly distressed as she is ushered into a black SUV late at night near a private residence in Los Angeles. The timestamp places the incident less than 48 hours before she was reported missing.

Federal investigators say the footage was discovered on a cloud account linked to a third party within D4vd’s inner circle. Once verified, a federal warrant was issued for the arrest of the manager, who was taken into custody early this morning in Miami without incident.

“This is a deeply disturbing case,” said FBI spokesperson Karen Vega during a press briefing. “The video evidence we have obtained raises serious questions not only about this individual’s role but also about what else may have been covered up or concealed. We are treating this as a high-priority criminal investigation.”

Celeste’s Tragic Death

Celeste, a rising star known for her haunting vocals and poetic lyrics, was found deceased under mysterious circumstances last week. While the initial autopsy results pointed to internal trauma and the presence of unidentified sedatives, authorities had not yet labeled the case a homicide — until now.

With the new footage and the manager’s arrest, officials have confirmed they are reclassifying the case as a criminal abduction that led to death, potentially upgrading charges to felony murder if further evidence supports it.

D4vd’s Silence Raises Questions

D4vd, whose breakout hit “Here With Me” propelled him to global fame, has remained silent since news of his manager’s arrest. His team has not released an official statement, and sources say the artist is “shocked and cooperating fully” with authorities.

While there is currently no indication that D4vd himself was involved in the incident, investigators are actively reviewing all communications between him, Celeste, and the manager in the days leading up to the tragedy.

A source close to the case told reporters, “There are a lot of unanswered questions. This arrest is just the beginning.”

Industry in Mourning — and Shock

Fans, fellow artists, and industry professionals have taken to social media to express their grief and disbelief. Many had admired Celeste as one of the most promising new voices of her generation. Now, her death is at the center of what may become one of the most high-profile criminal cases in recent music history.

As investigations continue and more details emerge, one thing is clear: justice for Celeste is only just beginning — and the fallout is far from over.
