A resurfaced photo from a Las Vegas restroom is reigniting debate across social media, drawing fresh attention to the case of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez and her alleged connection to rising artist D4vd during a 2023 tour stop with SZA.
From this picture which is widespread since a post by DJ Akademiks, it seems that Celeste is in a rest room of Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. This event takes place during SZA’s tour named SOS, with D4vd playing her opening act, on October 28th, 2023.
The only thing we can glean from this photograph is that Celeste was in Las Vegas during the weekend of this tour.
A tweet from X.
Celeste Rivas Hernandez was born in the year 2010 and she came from Lake Elsinore, California. Celeste was 14 years old when the accusations were made. The sexual abuse of Celeste allegedly started when she was 12 or 13 years old in 2023.
Her body was found in September 2025 in the front trunk of a Tesla belonging to David Anthony Burke. She died as a result of multiple perforations according to an autopsy that declared her death to be a homicide. The police have been keen on keeping details non-sensational and based on evidence only.
He was charged with murder in the first degree, sexually abusing a child under 14 years of age continuously, and disfiguring human remains. His arrest took place in April 2026. Burke has pleaded not guilty and his legal representation says,
“David Burke is not guilty of murdering Celeste Rivas Hernandez.”
As investigators have stated, Celeste was last sighted in the month of April in 2025. Prosecutors claim that she visited a property which is connected to Burke on the same day and got herself murdered soon afterward. It took some months before her body was found.
The case is still pending in court, but prosecutors have cited what they call substantial evidence.
The Las Vegas photo adds a new layer to public discussion, but it does not establish that anyone on the tour knew about or facilitated Celeste’s presence.
The distinction matters. Being in the same city or even the same venue area does not equal being part of a tour operation. As the case unfolds, that gap between proximity and proof remains central.
For now, the investigation continues in court, while online speculation moves faster than verified facts. The case stands as a reminder of how quickly digital narratives can form and how important it is to separate what’s known from what’s merely suggested.
