The investigation into the tragic death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez has drawn public attention to D4vd’s manager, Josh Marshall.
Celeste, who was reported missing in April 2024 at age 13 from Lake Elsinore, California, was found on September 8, 2025, in a Tesla registered to singer D4vd (David Anthony Burke) at a Hollywood tow yard. The remains were severely decomposed and dismembered.
Authorities are investigating the circumstances of Celeste’s death as a potential homicide. D4vd has not been arrested, and law enforcement has not officially named him as a suspect. The cause of death remains undetermined, and the investigation is ongoing.
Netizens have focused their attention on Josh Marshall, who has managed D4vd for roughly four years. Public speculation questions whether Marshall was aware of the singer’s interactions with Celeste and the circumstances surrounding her death.

Social media users have expressed frustration over Marshall’s silence, questioning how someone so closely involved with the singer did not report the missing teen.
Circumstantial factors, including matching “Shhh” tattoos on Celeste and D4vd and the leak of an unreleased demo titled “Celeste” in December 2023, have fueled public suspicion.
Despite these speculations, law enforcement has not implicated Josh Marshall in Celeste’s death. D4vd has stated that he is cooperating fully with authorities, and the investigation continues to gather evidence from all potential leads.
