I'm hardly an expert here. I looked in a simple site I did a while back using scaffold, since I don't have my Rails 4 legs under me yet, and scaffold maps the DELETE REST method to YourController::destroy. If you're using the generic routing, then the DELETE request will go to destroy. Apologies if your routes are not the same as mine, and you've already ruled this out.
