She was found but good catch, definitely looked like her earring.
If she was found, why doesn't that show up on NamUs, or why wasn't she removed from the database?

The closest girl I see missing within the time frame is Genevieve Gonzales https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/19647/1/. The boyfriend cold be lying and his mum helping him to create an alibi. In this picture it almost looks like she is wearing earring similar to the girl found.

The only problem with Selina is her hair looks awfully straight -- isn't the decedent described as having curly hair?
This UID was described as having 'Wavy" hair.

I'm looking at the missing space in that turquoise ring, and wondering if it didn't used to have an overlay of some sort. Example ring and victim's ring in thumbnails.
BTW, if you google "turquoise gold rings" you get page after page of rings in unusual settings like this one, many of them with diamonds or other sparkling stones and most of them thoroughly American. The turquoise stone and soft gold seem to be popular with independent jewelry makers. I haven't yet found one identical, but I'm finding some that are in the ballpark.
If it had an "overlay" like the filigree overlay ring photo on the left, it would have had prong markings on the bezel, like the prongs on that particular ring you noted, unless you meant that the overlay would be shelved underneath the existing bezel, so no prongs would be shown, and would be held in strictly by the bezel that encompasses the turquoise colored stone.
The ring and earrings look to me like an antique "art deco" style. Cabochon bezel set turquoise stones were often set in gold I think in the early 20's (guesstimate to year). Google art deco gold and turquoise rings and multiple bezel set images come up. That was my initial thought when I first saw the pictures of the jewelry - antique, art deco or possibly victorian. FWIW
Yes, I think that's a possibility.
There seems to be a current trend toward vintage jewelry of all kinds right now, and modern goldsmiths and silversmiths seem to be taking inspiration from older designs. Some lovely stuff out there. I had to restrain myself from buying the rings I was looking at
It's pretty clear that these pieces are unique and if we can get them out there, somebody ought to recognize them.
(I can't get rid of a nagging feeling that I have seen a ring like that somewhere, and recently.)
