Kayla Montgomery, the state's star witness, said in court Friday that Adam Montgomery beat his daughter to death in December of 2019 and then ordered Burger King and got highEditor’s note: Some of the details described in the story below may be disturbing for readers., in 2019 continued on Friday with testimony from the state's star witness.
The defense has spent the afternoon trying to poke holes in Kayla Montgomery’s story. They say she’s lying and is responsible for the death of the young girl. She testified that Adam, Kayla, Harmony and Kayla's 2-year-old and 1-year-old sons were all living in a Chrysler Sebring in the parking lot of a Manchester apartment complex after getting evicted from their home, and that Harmony was repeatedly urinating and defecating in her seat rather than telling her parents that she needed to go to the bathroom.She said that Adam Montgomery got angry, and would hit Harmony in the face or on her leg or her hand.
Kayla then asked if they could go to Burger King, and as Adam began driving in that direction, she could hear Harmony making noises. For a time, Kayla said Adam kept Harmony's body in a freezer at Portland Pie, the restaurant where he worked. She said he got in touch with an old friend of his, rented a U-Haul, and when he returned home, the bag containing Harmony's body was no longer with him.
“You kept insisting that all you knew was that Adam drove off with Harmony. And that was all you knew."A key witness took the stand Friday morning in the Harmony Montgomery murder trial. Kayla Montgomery, Adam Montgomery's estranged wife and Harmony's stepmother, is currently serving time in prison for perjury after allegedly lying to a grand jury about where she was when Harmony was last seen.
Authorities said Harmony died Dec. 7, 2019, in a car she was living in with father, stepmother and two younger stepbrothers in Manchester. They said Harmony passed away after her father hit her and her body eventually ended up in a bag, which prosecutors say Montgomery moved to places like a homeless shelter and apartment."He believed that if there was nobody, there could be no evidence of the horrible things that he did to her and he would get away with it," Knowles said.
