A private investigator claims a boxed, unused “burn cage” incinerator was found inside the Hollywood Hills rental home previously occupied by D4vd.
Looking to clear up possible misquotes tied to his name, investigator Steve Fischer shared a lengthy post on X, explaining that the “burn cage” incinerator was one of several items he said were more fitting for a farm than a Hollywood Hills residence. The incinerator, which is advertised to burn at 1,600 degrees, exceeds the 1,400 degrees typically required for a human cremation.
Beyond the fact that the incinerator is illegal to operate in LA County, Fischer questioned why it was shipped directly to the rental property rather than to a prop designer or production house if it was intended for a video. He also raised concerns about why the unit appeared unused and what purpose it served if the artist allegedly purchased it shortly before heading out on tour.
Fischer added that additional items meant to be used alongside the incinerator were also discovered inside the home.
“To be very clear, this burn cage was not used. It was still new and in the box,” he wrote. “However, given that Celeste Rivas Hernandez’s remains were ultimately found in the Tesla [trunk], the presence of an incinerator at the same residence associated with that vehicle necessarily raises questions about intent.”
He also noted that authorities did not seize the incinerator since it had never been used.
Fischer was brought on by D4vd’s landlord, Mladen Trifunovic, earlier this year after the Los Angeles Police Department allegedly failed to provide updates regarding its search of the Hollywood Hills property.
