Adam Montgomery Was Offered a Deal to Bring Harmony Home — He Said Nothing
Prosecutors made Adam Montgomery an offer at sentencing in the Harmony Montgomery case: reveal where you put your daughter’s remains, and we’ll recommend a lighter sentence. He sat in the courtroom and said nothing. He walked into his own jury selection smiling. He refused to attend most of his trial. And he has never once told anyone where Harmony is.
That silence now sits alongside a unanimous New Hampshire Supreme Court decision reversing Montgomery’s second-degree murder conviction on procedural grounds. The court ruled that trying the killing charge and a separate assault charge together in one trial prejudiced the jury. The assault evidence was strong — multiple witnesses, no dispute. The murder evidence depended almost entirely on Kayla Montgomery’s testimony, and the court found the jury may not have convicted without the assault case propping it up.
The state intends to retry the murder charge. Montgomery remains behind bars on assault, evidence tampering, witness tampering, and what he did to Harmony’s remains — hiding her in a duffel bag, a car trunk, a ceiling vent at a homeless shelter, and a walk-in freezer at the pizza shop where he worked. He used lime on his own daughter’s body. He rented a U-Haul and drove her remains to a disposal site somewhere between Manchester and Massachusetts. None of those convictions have been disturbed.
Tony Brueski traces the full timeline: Montgomery’s twenty-one-entry criminal history, the Massachusetts custody decision that put Harmony in his care, the DCYF caseworker who saw bruises and emailed police that everything was fine, and the procedural failure that cracked the one conviction that was supposed to speak for a five-year-old girl who cannot speak for herself.
