Missing NH girl Harmony Montgomery was murdered: state AG

Harmony Montgomery — the New Hampshire girl who was reported missing more than two years after she vanished in late 2019 — was likely murdered, authorities said Thursday.

State Attorney General John Formella said little Harmony was killed in Manchester around the time of her disappearance in December 2019, when she was 5 years old, according to local ABC affiliate WCVB.

Her remains have not been found, but Formella noted, “we do have multiple sources of investigative information, including just recently confirmed biological evidence that have led us to this difficult and tragic conclusion.”

Harmony, who was blind in her right eye, was previously described as 4-feet tall with blond hair and blue eyes and glasses.

She disappeared at some point between late November and mid-December 2019. But police did not learn that she had vanished until January 2022, when the New Hampshire Division for Children, Youth and Families alerted them that she had gone missing.

Cops last saw the girl in October 2019 when they responded to a home in Manchester, Police Chief Allen Aldenberg told reporters at the time.

Harmony had spent time in foster care in Massachusetts, where she looked after her younger brother, Jamison, the boy’s father, Blair Miller, told the Washington Post earlier this year.

Cops searched her last known home in January and her father was arrested on assault and other charges in connection with the disappearance. Her stepmom, meanwhile, was charged with welfare fraud the same month.

The announcement about Harmony’s death comes after FBI agents looking for the girl in June seized a large refrigerator from the apartment where she once lived with her father and stepmother.

A woman who was dating Harmony’s dad was found dead in a hotel room about three months earlier, according to reports.

On Thursday, Manchester Police Chief Aldenberg asked anyone with information to come forward to police.

“I’m not asking you for do it for me, for the people in this room, the people that have been working this investigation,” he said, WCVB reported. “Do it for this little girl who’s on the screen. The time is now. Time to step up and do the right thing.”
