Multiple Human Remains Found in Separate Investigations

A decomposing body found in a Tesla car registered to singer D4vd (David Anthony Burke) has been identified as Celeste Rivas, a 15-year-old girl who went missing in April 2024. The remains were discovered in the boot of the impounded vehicle at a Hollywood tow yard in Los Angeles on September 8. The cause and time of death are unknown. D4vd is cooperating with the investigation. The car was towed from Hollywood Hills after being abandoned for five days. The victim was last seen at 13 years old, and her remains showed signs of having been dead for an extended period.

Authorities in Washington state have found human remains believed to be those of Travis Decker, a 32-year-old former Army soldier accused of killing his three young daughters earlier this year. The remains were discovered in a remote wooded area south of Leavenworth, and while positive identification has not been confirmed, preliminary findings suggest they belong to Decker. Decker was accused of killing his daughters, aged 9, 8, and 5, in May, and their bodies were found down an embankment at a campsite in the Cascade Mountains with their wrists bound by zip ties. A search for Decker began after the girls' mother reported he had not returned them on time, and DNA testing confirmed he was the sole suspect in their murders. The investigation involved drones, cadaver dogs, and the release of photos showing how Decker might have changed his appearance, with a $20,000 reward offered for information leading to his arrest.

Irish police have found human remains in Donabate, north of Dublin, during a search for Daniel Aruebose, a boy who was last seen in 2022 and never reported missing. The remains are believed to be those of Daniel, who would be seven years old today. The discovery was made after the Irish child and family agency, Tusla, raised concerns and alerted officers on August 29. Formal identification will be done via DNA analysis. Daniel's case has drawn parallels with another missing boy, Kryan Durnin, whose case was raised by Tusla a year ago.

Christian B, a suspect in the Madeleine McCann case, was released from prison after serving a sentence for raping an elderly woman. He was seen celebrating his release with a meal at McDonald's and was fitted with an electronic ankle tag as part of his release conditions. Christian B has been linked to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in 2007, but denies any involvement. The German prosecutor leading the investigation believes Christian B abducted and murdered Madeleine, but lacks sufficient evidence to charge him.
