A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are unknown. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2 to 5 percent of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. A number of organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and images of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.

According to current statistics, 4,000 people in the United States go missing every day. Sometimes a child suddenly vanishes from the bus stop or the local park or even from their own yard or bedroom. Or a teenager doesn�t return home after a walk to the neighborhood grocery store or a bike ride or a party with friends. Other times, an adult is mysteriously absent from their job or neighbors haven�t seen them for several days, and family and friends haven�t heard from them either.

She has a tattoo of the red outline of a triangle on her right wrist; a photo of the tattoo is posted with this summary. She was born in Hawaii, but raised in Australia, and speaks English with a pronounced Australian accent.
Details of Disappearance Kreimer was last seen in Port Arena, California on September 21, 2015. At the time of her disappearance, she was suffering an apparent mental health crisis. She had no prior history of mental illness, but after staying awake for four days straight and shouting incoherently, she was taken to the hospital for an evaluation and possible admission.
She resisted attempts to evaluate her, however. Although a doctor believed Kreimer was experiencing a psychotic episode as a result of bipolar disorder, in the end she was released to the care of her boyfriend, Jamai Gayle, and a friend. At one point, as Gayle was driving her home from the hospital, Kreimer tried to jump out of the car.
When they got home, Kreimer stayed up another night. She seemed confused and claimed she had killed one of her neighbors, who was in fact alive. The next morning, she wandered away from the house twice and Gayle and her friend had to go outside, find her and return her to the residence.
Gayle, Asha and her friend decided to go to San Francisco, California to visit Gayle's mother.They stopped at the Rollerville Cafe near Point Arena to get some food. Kreimer was still acting strangely and refused to speak to the waitress or eat anything. Between 10:30 and 11:00 a.m., she got up to use the bathroom and never returned. She has never been heard from again.
Her jacket was discovered on the trail the leads along the cliffs to the Point Arena Lighthouse, leaving to speculation that she might have jumped, but extensive searches turned up no sign of her or her body. However, her friend said Kreimer didn't have a jacket with her at the cafe.
Kreimer is originally from Australia and has dual Australian/U.S. citizenship. She had been living in the United States for three years by the time of her disappearance. She didn't have her purse, wallet, cellular phone, identification, credit cards or even her shoes when she disappeared, and is considered to be at risk. Her remains unsolved.
