Overview
- A police source told People that d4vd has not cooperated with detectives and has not been interviewed, though he is being treated as a suspect.
- Sources cited by Mark Geragos on TMZ’s 2 Angry Men say investigators identified a second person of interest using cellphone data, social media location trails, and internal Tesla logs.
- Investigators are scrutinizing a late‑night spring trip to a remote area of Santa Barbara County that sources say may have involved the second person and the vehicle where the body was later found.
- Reporting from multiple outlets says the victim’s remains were dismembered and reportedly partially frozen, complicating forensic work and potentially leaving the cause of death undetermined.
- LAPD is treating the case as a homicide; no arrests or charges have been filed as final cause and manner of death and toxicology remain pending, and detectives previously seized several items in a Hollywood Hills search.
