A $50,000 reward is being offered to anyone willing to come forward with new information that leads to the recovery of Sasha Krause. The reward is to be paid out by a 3rd party, not family members and not the Sheriff’s Office directly. The reward will only be disbursed upon successful recovery of Sasha Krause. The reward is being held by the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office Foundation, which is a 501C3, nonprofit organization that supports the Sheriff’s Office volunteer programs. If you have information that may assist in the recovery or location of Sasha Krause, please call the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office Detective Hot Line at 505-333-7878.

At approximately 3am on January 19, 2020, San Juan County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to Lamp & Light Publishers on Road 5577 in Farmington, NM in reference to a missing person. 27-year-old, Sasha Marie Krause was last seen leaving her residence on January 18, 2020 around 8pm and never returned. Sasha’s vehicle was located parked nearby a church in the area where she resides. Resources that Sasha would normally take with her, if she willingly left her residence, were left behind. The San Juan County Sheriff's Office considers her disappearance suspicious. Detectives with the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office are actively searching for Sasha and working closely with her relatives and members of the Mennonite community. Detectives have obtained search warrants on cell phone records, bank statements, are continuing to interview potential witnesses and are using advanced, investigative technology and resources to locate Krause.
