In the end, Laci died without her wedding ring(s) on...
Now all we need is the "time" when the rings went to the jeweler and and to know why Scott didn't pick them up in the months to follow. I think the jeweler may play an important part in this case.
Good point. My dad had my mom's diamond solitare reset for their 30th anniversary. Laci and Scott were married for approximately 5 yrs. I'm sure that Laci would have mentioned this being done, especially since the extra stones would involve "family" jewelry.

It's not logical for both rings to be used for a reset, imo. You'd still want your wedding band separate from the solitare, wouldn't you? If Laci was experiencing water retention from pregnancy, that would explain why she wasn't wearing them. Maybe Scott didn't take the stuff to the jeweler's. Why would he take every bit of jewelry to the store to have it all made into one ring? Well I don't want to say who's name popped up as needing the cash, because that's just pure speculation ;-)
I think the jeweler will be a witness for the prosecution, and that's why we won't hear anything about this until the information is available to the public. Three choices: Scott did plan on having a ring remade for Laci, he intended to have the ring made for someone else, or the stuff was going to be hocked.
what if we knew for sure that it was SP who ENCOURAGED Laci to get the rings combined in a new setting?....hmmmmm......maybe it would be more convenient for him then, you think?
