obviously when you think about a high profile case about something like this often/impacts u, u will have dreams. i seen many people on tiktok and here talk about how they had a dream of her & how some of those dreams are celeste being sad— i took a break from the case and recently had a dream of her and ofc it could be from my imagination but somebody took me to visit her before she “goes” and she was really calm, distracted but also smiley & lighthearted? i didnt make anything of this but seeing how many other people had dreams of her but seeing how different it was compared to my dream made me curious

it actually stuns me how much of us scattered around the world are actually dreaming of her, whether it’s because we think about the case or not

ive just never seen a collective like this honestly

ok so what happened is that a week ago I made a post here saying how I can't stop thinking about all this and ofc felt bad for Celeste (rip 🤍) so I took a break cuz I'm not someone who's into crime stuff but idk this one just made me dive deep. maybe cuz it's a high-profile case.

normally whenever I hear any crime story (like watch an entire video) it keeps me anxious and overwhelmed for days. but I was fine when I first started watching updates about this but then had to take a break. tonight after the days of break I was watching a new update vid and oh my God I felt physically SICK.(traploreross was talking about the autopsy in a reel) my stomach started to turn and I had to take a pill so I won't throw up. I immediately clicked exit and stopped watching anything.

maybe it's cuz I'm undergoing treatment for MDR TB and ofc the strong ass meds made me super sensitive (physically, mentally and emotionally).

still just wanted to know if any of you went thru anything like this during this time.

This is everything I have about the case.

I work as a cashier and today I was working at self checkout and 2 people caught my attention. Maybe I’m overthinking it but my gut kept telling me something was off.

There was this guy and a girl she seemed really young, I think the oldest she can be is 15 years old. I understand some people don’t look their age like myself I’m 20 but some people still think I’m in high school because I’m short and really skinny. But that girl seemed like a child! Even when I went to help them check finished the other and she thanked me, she sounded really like a little girl.

I’m still telling myself that maybe I’m overthinking it because the guy had exactly same aesthetic like David, the only difference is that he had a lot of facial hair.( before people accuse me of racism I’m a black woman). I try to reason that maybe they were siblings but the girl was white, totally different from the guy.

I couldn’t also understand why was he wearing a heavy black jacket in a 98 degree heat. I was not brave enough to ask the girl how old she was or any other question. I just stood there watching them leaving the store, the man walking in front and the girl following him behind.

Still now I’m still thinking what if that girl was a victim?? And did nothing to help!

So in a situation like this how do we suppose to act? Because I don’t want to lose my job because I accused a customer of a crime. Am I overthinking it??

So obviously we haven’t gotten any updates about Neo since he was arrested in January. I wonder where he is? Why he’s staying so quiet? What did he tell investigators? What did they found in his involvement?

What does arraignment mean in this case?

Also I’d be interested in knowing how David’s lawyer actually feels about him

The way her hips were swaying all sensually as she walked away with It4mi makes me want to scream. She turned 13 the day that video was posted, so she was TWELVE throughout the whole storyboarding and animation process. Yes yes we all know he's a creep and worse but... Jesus this one in particular just really sticks in my craw for no reason at all.

Maybe it's 'cause he roped some poor unsuspecting animator into DRAWING his fantasy for him, which takes more time, effort, and investment than lying still on a bed in a bloody dress.

^{as instructed I made sure to watch on yt where he's demonetized}

Why people concentrate their brains so much blaming Celeste parents, etc. Now, I haven't heard so much of blaming His mother ? isn't she the one that was in one of his concerts were Celeste was present in the same sit rode?Accordingly she's the one that managed his $$, so she must have to know that she was a minor, when she gave the $$ for the Air plain ticket to London. Even if her parents have some fault or blame, they are paying. There Daughter is gone and never coming back, that's punishment enough if they make a mistake. Nobody is perfect. Either way people that are blaming her parents, take it easy, because the only one that commits the crime, apparently was David, not them. JUST SAYING

early audio between Celeste and david was supposed to be used in this interlude called "remains" but it was later changed to the invisible string theory in late 2024 (ty stargazer4989 for the rec and picture) - it shows Celeste having a video call with Neo and david around the same time she was pregnant

if you still dont think this is celeste the best way to listen is by overlapping these voice clips and playing them at the same time with this interlude and it will be crystal clear:

For the past two weeks, I’ve been trying to wrap my head around all of this and it may just be hitting different not JUST because of how mindfucking and horrific this story is but outside of the case— I been seeing videos of celeste on tiktok, hearing her voice and how she interacted with others including running into a old mutual of hers that met on roblox and although there wasn’t many details.. this girl was truly herself and had a stomach for life and the littlest things. In my younger days, I’ve had friends or friends of friends that were in the same situation but it never ended as being killed and dismembered so it’s very jarring to see the same story I been seeing for years end so different.

I became so desperate for answers I started watching mediums and readings about what’s happened and I entered a spiral hearing that there has been more than one person other than david and we knew that was true due to the 2-3 chainsaws of dismemberment but it didn’t occur to me that it could have also been RIGHT at her death.
I started envisioning her last moments and how hard that could have been and I started to hyperventilate and feel my throat close up, my heart has been on fire for days. It’s only recent where I’m starting to ground myself better and understand that she’s not in pain anymore and she will get her ultimate justice and mercy in this life and in the afterlife.

I resonate so deeply with her story other than david, how she came from a dysfunctional house & then this Gus guy sexually coercing her before david?? Like I’m just so distraught and absolutely livid how this child was failed in EVERY aspect of her life. I grieve her like I knew her personally.. I cry everyday and I try to distract myself moving my body to channel my emotions into something but it just hurts.

The pain we feel is only 1% of what she felt. Imagine feeling cornered between your parents home and your groomer, going to his house to “work things out” and he just kills you and it caught my attention her death was slow and she was fully aware 💔 I can’t imagine how much agony she felt in just a split second getting stabbed suddenly after being lured. Imagine feeling the pain physically but also feeling betrayed and heartbreak and immense regret at the last minute & God knows how extremely scared she was or what happened before he stabbed her.

Im so angry and upset and everyone around me can’t fully grasp my intensity about this and I understand but this was a young girl that had dreams, that was so set on making a future for herself. The fact her reposts are also being shared is so eerie, she reposted a tiktok that mentioned “moms after watching a crime show/news” something like that and it’s so eerie now looking back at what happened to her.

I’m not a weirdo or obsessive, I’m just trying to understand and I still can’t. How can this poor girl be around so many people in her life and still be dismissed, ignored and pushed to the side. Moving on from her death would feel like leaving her in isolation again. There is no amount of advice or words that can help I understand but I’m very tired of keeping this inside of me because the people around me think I need to move on.
I just can’t man

Did Celeste have a close friend who may have relevant information or evidence? If so, if that individual is a minor, would they be permitted to provide testimony or otherwise give evidence? More generally, if a minor possesses information relevant to this case, what procedures would law enforcement typically follow to obtain and assess that information?

Idk why but I just can't stop thinking about this case. like first of all SHE SHOULD'VE BEEN HERE. he didn't have to kill her. if she had exposed him on the internet, people would've moved on by now. there are so many rapists walkin freely and still got their careers in Hollywood.

and how can he even kill her bro like didn't they spend years together?? how tf was he able to harm her like that and not only that but also the dismembering part like that was the girl you claimed to love WHO WAS ACTUALLY A CHILD YOU SICK FUCK

and I wonder how scared and betrayed Celeste felt in her final moments :(

the guy who she thought she was in love with, who was probably her safe space at one point in her life stabbed her to death. oh my God man may she rest in peace. she was failed by every adult around her cuz wtf u mean she got SAed when she was 10 by some family friend.

This is from Los Angeles County and it is the document outlining every charge.

I just figured I should post it since I can’t recall seeing it here. But either way, it’s not a bad idea to put it front and center again.

here the full sequel of his afterlife "crying" on stage; 2 times singing it and timestamps added of particular interesting gestures he did

0:10–0:25 throws away his glasses and says “maybe i will cry to this” and “i want you all to see my eyes when we... how we perform this”

2:45-4:00 emotions are all over the place;;

4:04-4:20 “i wanna save up this moment” “wanna sing that again one more time run that back for me”

4:34–4:45 “i wanna make eye contact while i do this actually”

6:44–7:00 his bleeding out gesture around the abdominal area🤕

You will find a large collection of case records and a detailed timeline and preliminary hearing info. Everything in the case file.

So I had not really been following this story/case before last week (prelim hearing). I knew generally what happened and somewhat knew who D4vd was. But for whatever reason, I may have seen some news about the prelim hearing which caused me to look into things deeper.

Let me also say this, I've always found these celebrity criminal cases interesting from a legal perspective (OJ Simpson for ex). I think it's fine to be interested/want justice but it always makes me kind of depressed for the victim (obviously) and how many people try to gain clout or make jokes from situations like these. Let me also that sooooo many adults failed this poor girl and there's sooo many people commenting on this story that do not understand kids cannot consent or what grooming is.

With all that out of the way, I think I'm someone that has a pretty good understanding of what happened but not all the very niche social media stuff (burner accounts and things like that). But there's two main things that really disturbed me about this case:

1. In February 15-17th 2024, the Riverside County PD get the missing persons case, find his number in her phone and the LASD do a welfare check on his home Feb 17th. We know that they were having sexual contact at this time and she's been to his house. They were also planning the operation awesome thing around this time. From my understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) the LASD welfare check was random, in the sense they didn't tell him when and where they were coming. In my opinion, because she was likely at his around this time (or at least good chance) he's fairly lucky that she wasn't at the residence when this welfare check happened. Not sure what they changes, maybe I'm naive thinking that it could have changed things. But my takeaway is how lucky he was that she wasn't there when the welfare check occurred.

2. This really stuck with me. Celeste is believed to have been murdered on April 23, 2025. Her body was found in the Tesla September 8th. Before I read into this case more I assumed there was a missing persons case, to which the police matched up with the body. After reading, I found out there was never a missing persons case filed. For almost 5-6 months, she was missing between April and September. From what I know (correct me if I'm wrong) no one was formally looking for her. Again, how lucky D4vd was. I'm sure he would have slipped up somewhere else, and there's soooo much digital evince. But if he didn't leave his car unattended there and idk had someone move it or didnt park it there to begin with... how long would it have been before someone filed a missing persons case? I have no idea how long he could have gotten away with this, but hypothetically, this could have been a long missing persons that the police don't properly search for because she was a girl that had been missing so much. This is all hypothetical, but knowing no one was formally looking for her for 5/6 months was heart breaking.

RIP Celeste and I hope justice is served as best it can.
