Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP13594) and 6 other sources
On New Year's Day in 2012, a 17-year-old female named Jennifer Ha was last seen in Vancouver, Washington. At the time of her disappearance, she was described as being of Asian descent, with long black hair and brown eyes. She was approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighed around 90 pounds. When she was last seen, she was reportedly wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt and jeans. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance point to a tragic event that unfolded on the Glenn L. Jackson Memorial Bridge.

Law enforcement agencies believe that Jennifer Ha jumped from the Glenn L. Jackson Memorial Bridge, which spans the Columbia River. This belief is based on a report from a witness who called 911 shortly after 4:00 p.m. on the day she was last seen. The witness described seeing a woman who matched Jennifer's description jump from the mid-span on the south side of the bridge. In response to the call, authorities launched a search and rescue operation that lasted for two and a half hours, but they were unable to locate her.

Despite the immediate and extensive search efforts, Jennifer's body was never recovered. Due to the witness account and the circumstances of her disappearance, authorities presume that she is deceased. The case is classified as a suspected suicide. The investigation into her disappearance was handled by the Vancouver Police Department. This case is a somber reminder of the day a young woman vanished, leaving behind unanswered questions and a presumption of a life cut short. The official record indicates that the primary theory behind her disappearance is that she jumped from the bridge, a conclusion drawn from a witness report that prompted an immediate but unsuccessful search.
