A private detective investigating the rental home of rapper D4vd claims to have discovered “farm” tools in the $20,000-a-month Los Angeles mansion which the musician fled after a 15-year-old girl was found dead in his abandoned Tesla.
Steve Fisher was hired by the owner of the Hollywood Hills manse Mladen Trifunovic to comb through the former pad of Queens-born David Anthony Burke, stage name D4vd, to determine whether there is any evidence that could help solve the mysterious death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez, who was discovered decomposed in the trunk of the rapper’s car at an L.A. impound lot on Sept. 8.
As part of his three-week, ongoing investigation, the private detective said he discovered multiple tools, normally used on farms, that he claimed “could be used to get rid of a body.”
“There were some items at the house that were still in their original manufacturing packaging that had been delivered that have no use in a home in the Hollywood Hills,” said Fisher, a missing persons investigator based in California.
“These are items that belong more on a farm than in a home. It would make no sense to even own these things,” he added, refusing to name the specific items so as not to interfere with the ongoing LAPD investigation.
The private investigation also uncovered several details regarding the “Romantic Homicide” singer’s black Tesla, he claimed.
That vehicle was D4vd’s everyday car and was in regular use up until February, Fisher claimed.
The investigator cited parking citations, license plate reader data, and home and neighborhood security footage to make the determination that the Tesla stopped being used after the first two months of 2025.
On Feb. 27, the black Tesla received its 45th parking citation — but the next citation didn’t occur until Sept. 3, according to data shared by Fisher on X.
Security footage showed the SUV was last moved from its normal spot in front of D4vd’s home on July 29 and parked just a few blocks away where it would remain until a neighbor filed a complaint on Aug. 29, according to Fisher.
The car was towed to the impound lot on Sept. 5 and Celeste’s body was discovered three days later, according to the LAPD.
She was in a state of “severe decomposition” with the LA medical examiner’s office still unable to determine a cause of death due to the grisly state of her remains, ABC reported at the time.
“I do believe that when the car was moved on July 29 that [Hernandez] was in the front trunk of the Tesla at that time and probably had been for quite a while at that point,” Fischer told The Post.
“It appears to me that there’s a chance [Hernandez] could’ve been in that car a very long time.
“Something very bizarre happened.”
D4vd had another Tesla that was found in the garage of the home — this one a red 2025 Model Y with a lease that began on Feb.1, just as the older car appeared to stop being used, according to Fisher.
The rapper has gone dark since the grisly discovery — canceling his world tour and hiring high-powered attorney Blair Berk who previously worked for disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein.
Neither Berk nor the Los Angeles Police Department responded to request for comment.
