LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- D4vd has been arrested in connection with the murder of a teenager whose decomposing body was found in the trunk of a Tesla registered to the singer, police said Thursday.
D4vd, whose legal name is David Burke, is being held without bail, officials said.
In September 2025, 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found dead inside the trunk of an impounded Tesla registered to the singer D4vd.

xxqqzz posting a thread about D4vd, are you two related?
Is this what is known as black privlege? A dead body in the trunk. Arrested 6 months later?
If this had happened to me, I would have been arrested in September 2025.

I didn’t read the whole article. It’s Free Republic tradition.
But my guess is that somebody dropped a dime. In other words, gave the police some new information. And it was enough to turn a great suspicion into a solid arrest.
Some history:
https://www.houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/news/local/2026/02/26/544488/d4vd-houston-music-los-angeles-grand-jury-investigation/
Singer d4vd is the target of a Los Angeles County grand jury investigation of the killing of a 14-year-old girl whose decomposed body was found last year in an apparently abandoned Tesla registered to him that was towed from the Hollywood Hills, court documents showed.
Prosecutors describe the 20-year-old Houston-born alt-pop singer whose legal name is David Burke as the target of the investigation in grand jury subpoenas issued Jan. 15 seeking to have three of his relatives testify.

The subpoena says police investigators searching the 2023 Tesla Model Y in a tow yard found a cadaver bag “covered with insects and a strong odor of decay.”

A cadaver bag? How easy is it to get a cadaver bag?
here’s the answer: Primacare BB-3201 Body Bag Stretcher Combo with 8 Side Handles and Center Zipper, Waterproof Bags for Outdoor Camping Hiking and Sleeping, Polyethylene Cadaver Disaster Pouch, 90” x 36”, Black
25 bucks.
D4vd is pronounced how? I thought it was an Icelandic name, maybe voiced as dee-void or something weird.
Icelandic chimps are chimping as usual
The body found in this man’s car is circumstantial evidence, the young girl might have crawled into the bag and then into to the trunck of this man’s brand new abandoned car.
I thought it was DVDA, which is South Park’s Trey Parker’s band. (You don’t want to know what it stands for)
The number 4 stands for A in this kind of lingo. So it's DA-vd, pronounced like David, I guess.

from Leo AI, in Brave browser....
"The practice of replacing letters with numbers to spell words is primarily known as *leetspeak* (or leet), a system that originated in the 1980s on bulletin boards and chat services to obscure text from non-initiated users."
"Another specific term for number-based word constructs is numeronym, which generally refers to abbreviations where numbers replace letters based on either pronunciation or the count of omitted letters."
Key distinctions include:
Leetspeak:
Uses numbers and symbols to substitute individual letters (e.g., 1337 for "leet" or gr8 for "great"), often creating a dialect that mixes textese and intentional misspellings.
Numeronyms:
Includes homophonic numeronyms where numbers sound like the omitted letters (e.g., K9 for "canine" or l8r for "later") and numerical contractions where the number represents the count of skipped letters (e.g., i18n for "internationalization").
“D4vd” I’m sure is still pronounced “David.” The ‘4’ is just a cool-kid way write/type an ‘A.’

Rest in Peace - Celeste Rivas Hernandez
Dude is for VD? Something tells me he may get his wish.
OH NO. He is my favorite singer. I have its whole discography.
More importantly, you might want to come up with a more creative excuse than “I have no alibi, and no idea how that girl’s chopped-up body got in the locked trunk of my car”
I never heard of this nobody crapper. The young crappers are stoned on weed 24/7
