The case of the murder of Harmony Montgomery continues its course and new details are expected to be offered this Tuesday.
The disappearance of the five-year-old girl, and the subsequent arrest of her father, Adam Montgomery, for murder, has drawn national attention.
On Tuesday, a document will be released that could include “graphic details” about the murder investigation, according to Union Leader. The sealed document was produced by prosecutors in October when they initially charged Adam Montgomery with killing his daughter.
WMUR-TV filed a motion to open the document in May, and a judge ultimately ruled that it could be opened 10 days after Adam Montgomery stood trial on unrelated weapons charges. That trial ended on June 8 when Montgomery was found guilty of six firearms-related charges.
Adam Montgomery pleaded not guilty last year to charges of second-degree murder, falsifying physical evidence and abuse of a corpse. Authorities allege he killed her daughter, Harmony, by repeatedly hitting her over the head with his fist.
He is scheduled to stand trial on those charges in August.
Harmony was last seen alive in 2019, when she was five years old, but her disappearance only came to light in December 2021. Since then, the case has received national attention. Authorities announced last August that they believed she had been killed in early December 2019.
Harmony’s mother, Crystal Sorey, has been saying since the investigation began that Adam Montgomery must have had something to do with the girl’s disappearance and death.
“We knew all along that he murdered her,” Sorey said last year. “Now we know how, but the big question remains, where is she?”
In April, New Hampshire and Massachusetts police searched a wetland area in Revere as part of the investigation into Harmony’s disappearance. But nothing was found.
Authorities are still asking for the public’s help in finding Harmony’s body or providing information about how she was killed by calling or texting 603-203-6060, the 24-hour tip line for state and local police.
