Montgomery’s Murder Conviction Reversed

The New Hampshire Supreme Court overturned Adam Montgomery’s murder conviction after finding the jury improperly linked an assault charge to the killing — but other charges remain. Montgomery, accused of killing his 5-year-old daughter Harmony whose body was never found, was sentenced to at least 56 years. The court’s ruling sends the murder case back for retrial, while assault and abuse charges stay intact. Harmony’s mother previously settled a $2.25M lawsuit alleging social workers ignored abuse signs after Montgomery gained custody in 2019. The attorney general vows to retry the murder charge, confident in their evidence, while Montgomery’s defense remains silent — though they’ve argued he didn’t kill her, suggesting she died alone with her stepmother, whom he allegedly threatened.
