\u201cAs many of you know, Celeste Rivas Hernandez has been identified as the body found last week,\u201d GoFundMe<\/a> organizers Esmeralda Lozano and Gisel Vera wrote on a fundraising page that was created on Sept. 17. \u201cShe was a beloved daughter, sister, cousin, and friend.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHer family is heartbroken and devastated by this tragic loss,\u201d the statement continued. \u201cThey are seeking help to lay her body to rest. Any funds you are able to donate are greatly appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n The page has raised $12,989 of its $20,000 goal, as of Friday at the time of this posting. Hernandez\u2019s funeral service will take place on Oct. 5. <\/p>\n The family\u2019s first public comments come on the heels a day after the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner identified the body found in the car on Sept. 8 as 15-year-old Rivas Hernandez. <\/p>\n The date of death has been listed as Sept. 8 but the cause of death is \u201cdeferred,\u201d due to her body being \u201cseverely decomposed\u201d and the findings are pending additional investigation. <\/p>\n Per NBC News<\/a>, the Riverside County Sheriff\u2019s Office in California confirmed in a statement that Rivas Hernandez was identified as the \u201cjuvenile who was reported missing from Lake Elsinore\u201d last year and that the Los Angeles Police Department is investigating the incident as a homicide. <\/p>\n As previously reported<\/a>, the remains belonging to the teenager were found wrapped inside a bag and stashed in the front trunk of an impounded Tesla registered to the popular internet singer after workers at Hollywood Tow in Los Angeles smelled a strong odor coming from a car in their lot. <\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
