New details have been revealed about the macabre crime that shocked Los Angeles, where rapper D4vd killed and dismembered 14-year-old Celeste Rivas, dividing her body into 2 bags, in an attempt to hide their relationship.

According to the New York Post, the rapper – known as David Bear – and Rivas had a text message argument the night before the murder because the minor was allegedly jealous of the singer's relationships with other women.
"Rivas threatened to reveal information about her relationship with the defendant in order to end his career and ruin his life," the investigation states.

The rapper and Rivas allegedly met in January 2022 when the latter was just 11 years old, with prosecutors alleging that the two began a sexual relationship in November 2023, when she was 13 and he was 18. According to the indictment, D4vd used an Uber taxi to transport Rivas from her home to his on the night of April 23, 2025. He then stabbed her to death and remained motionless as the minor's blood flowed.

The next day, he bought and received a shovel, and a week later, he ordered two chainsaws from Amazon, which were delivered to his home. On May 5, he allegedly ordered a body bag, heavy-duty laundry bags, and a “pool fence,” purchases he appears to have made under the alias Victoria Mendez.

As described in the lawsuit, the rapper placed Riva's body in the blue inflatable pool and used a chainsaw and possibly other tools to cut off her limbs, with investigators finding plastic fragments embedded in Riva's remains that matched those found in the pool the rapper bought. The singer also amputated two of her fingers because they had tattoos with his name on them; those fingers were never found.
