FBI Insider on D4VD & Celeste Rivas: The Mistakes, The Delays, The Timeline That Doesn’t Add Up Celeste Rivas Hernandez was reported missing in April 2024. But five months later, she was caught on camera — alive and near home. Then, one year later to the day, her decomposed body was discovered in the front trunk of a Tesla linked to music artist d4vd. The car had been sitting on a public street. Then it was ticketed. Then it was towed. No one checked it. No one noticed. Until the smell. And now?  Still no charges. Still no confirmed suspect.  Just a deferred cause of death. And a growing sense that something — or someone — is being missed. In this episode of Hidden Killers, retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer walks us through what this case looks like through the lens of someone who’s handled high-profile, high-risk investigations — the kind where the victim is a child, the timeline is broken, and the forensic trail is already cold. She lays out: What should have happened in the first 24 hours after the body was found What kind of evidence is lost forever if you don’t move fast — and what might still be recoverable How the FBI builds working timelines when a “missing” child turns up on camera months later Whether the Tesla's onboard tech could actually reveal who last accessed the car The red flags she sees in the tow yard timeline, family silence, media pressure, and the lack of a confirmed crime scene And why “no charges” right now doesn’t necessarily mean no case — but it does mean time is running out This isn’t theory. This is how a real federal agent thinks, moves, and investigates when the victim is 14 — and the system may already be failing her.
