Rivas' mother told TMZ last week her daughter had been missing for more than a year, and she was suspicious of the remains found in the Tesla because she said the name of her daughter's boyfriend was David. Rivas and David also had matching tattoos, the mother said.
Rivas was 13 when she was reported missing in April 2024 from Lake Elsinore.
