D4VD’s Tesla, a Body, and No Arrests: FBI Veteran Unpacks the Investigation

D4VD’s Tesla, a Body, and No Arrests: FBI Veteran Unpacks the InvestigationCeleste Rivas Hernandez was just 13 when she was reported missing in April 2024. But five months later, a home surveillance camera caught her outside her house — alive. Then, a year later to the day, her decomposed body was found in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to rising music artist d4vd.No arrests. No suspect. And the LAPD says it’s still “unclear whether there’s any criminal culpability beyond concealment.”So how does this look through federal eyes?In this episode, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins Hidden Killers to walk us through the investigation — step by step — the way it would be handled by a federal team. She breaks down the real priorities when a child is found dead in a vehicle. What evidence disappears first. What should’ve been locked down within hours. And what law enforcement could still be missing entirely.We dig into: The administrative timeline of the Tesla — marked, ticketed, towed, then searched How the gap between April 2024 and Sept 2025 should’ve been reconstructed Why chain of custody around viral evidence like the Tesla keycard could tank a case How the FBI uses vehicle telemetry, phone records, and location data to build a profile — even when no cause of death is determined And what Jennifer would do right now if this case landed back on her desk If you’ve been asking, Where are the charges? — this is the conversation that finally explains why we might not have them yet. And what it’s going to take to make sure this case doesn’t go cold.🔖 HASHTAGS #CelesteRivasHernandez #TrueCrime #d4vd #TeslaFrunk #FBIInvestigation #JenniferCoffindaffer #MissingChildren #JusticeForCeleste #HiddenKillers #CrimeSceneAnalysisWant to comment and watch this podcast as a video?Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspodInstagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspodX Twitter https://x.com/tonybpodListen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872
