Adam Montgomery, aged 34, is currently embroiled in a bitter legal battle in Manchester, New Hampshire, facing charges of second-degree murder in connection with the death of his daughter, Harmony Montgomery. Despite her conspicuous absence from the courtroom, the proceedings continue, shedding light on the troubling allegations surrounding the tragic case.
Adam’s decision not to stand trial for his murder stands in stark contrast to the severity of the charges against him. He has already pleaded guilty to two lesser charges of abuse of a corpse and providing false information. This notable absence leads observers to wonder what implications it may have for the upcoming legal proceedings.
The trial comes against a backdrop of significant family turmoil, with Harmony’s mother, Kayla Montgomery, pointing out Adam’s troubled history of substance abuse and legal entanglements. Despite this tumultuous background, Adam was granted custody of Harmony in 2019, a decision that ultimately led to disastrous results.
The allegations against Adam paint a chilling picture of parental neglect and betrayal. Authorities allege he hid Harmony’s remains in multiple locations after her death in 2019. According to testimony during the trial, Adam allegedly told a friend that he had “effed up” his daughter’s body shortly before disposing of it.

Harmony’s disappearance went unnoticed for more than two years, despite being known to the security services. In 2022, Adam Montgomery was formally charged with second-degree murder, abuse of a corpse, and tampering with physical evidence.
Travis Beach, a friend who helped Adam rent a van that was used to dispose of Harmony’s remains, testified during the trial, noting Adam’s confession and remorse. However, Harmony’s remains were never recovered.
The tragic story of Harmony Montgomery’s death serves as a stark reminder of the complexities and tragedies that can arise in the realm of family dynamics and child welfare. As the trial progresses, Adam Montgomery’s absence looms large, leaving countless questions and a deep sense of grief.
