A Court Says Adam Montgomery Owes $15 Million for Harmony’s Death — He’ll Never Pay
from True Crime Today | Daily True Crime News & Interviews · host Real Story Media
A civil court ordered Adam Montgomery to pay fifteen and a half million dollars for the wrongful death of his daughter Harmony. He will never pay a single dollar. But the judgment sits in the record as a measure of what one court believes Harmony’s life was worth — a number that stands even as the criminal murder conviction has been reversed.The Harmony Montgomery case now occupies a legal no-man’s-land: Montgomery is convicted of concealing his daughter’s remains, tampering with evidence, and witness intimidation. He faces decades in prison on those charges alone. A civil court has found him liable for wrongful death. Crystal Sorey settled her own lawsuit against the state for over two million dollars over DCYF’s failure to protect Harmony. But the murder conviction — the one that was supposed to say who killed this little girl — has been erased on procedural grounds.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta (Defense Diaries) joins Tony Brueski to examine what the civil findings mean in the context of the criminal retrial. Whether a jury ever hears about them. Whether the state’s own child protection failures give the defense ammunition. What leverage exists — if any — to compel Montgomery to reveal Harmony’s location. And whether the retrial is about justice or about a record that matches what everyone already knows.
