D4vd’s Manager Speaks Out

In the comments of a recent TikTok video, Josh Marshall opened up about the rumors linking him to the investigation. He made it clear he never received any emails about the missing girl, Celeste Rivas Hernandez, and said he had zero knowledge of the situation. Marshall claimed that he works remotely 95% of the time and isn’t involved in day-to-day interactions with d4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke. Marshall also urged everyone to leave speculation behind, as he himself is busy supporting his family emotionally through the news.

“This has been a tough time for my family as I am a father of 3 children,” Marshall, who goes by JMogul on TikTok, wrote in the comments of a video addressing the rumors. “I never received any emails. I had zero knowledge of anything and I don’t live in California. Also I work remotely 95% of the time and my job doesn’t require me to have much interaction with any of my clients/David as there are many others that work with him on a day to day capacity, not me. This news is tragic for so many and for her family. I hope the proper authorities get to the bottom of it soon.”

Police Activity At Celeste’s Home Raises Questions

New details are beginning to paint a fuller picture of what may have been going on behind the scenes in Celeste’s life. According to newly obtained records, Riverside County deputies made multiple visits to her home between 2022 and 2025. Furthermore, there was reportedly a spike in activity in February, earlier this year.

ABC News reports that many of the calls were marked as “FU,” short for “follow-up,” suggesting they weren’t emergency responses but rather recurring check-ins by law enforcement. The reason for those visits hasn’t been confirmed, but it adds another layer to the ongoing investigation.

New Details Emerge On Celeste’s Cause Of Death

The investigation into the tragic death of Celeste remains ongoing—and her official cause of death is still unknown. According to her death certificate, the cause is listed as “deferred.” Meanwhile, the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner continues to await lab tests and toxicology results that could provide more answers. For now, authorities say the case remains a death investigation rather than a homicide. Furthermore, the certificate also confirms that Celeste was not, and had not been, pregnant in the last year.
