Father of missing N.H. girl is suspect in unsolved Massachusetts murder
<Snip>
According to my law enforcement source, Adam Montgomery, along with two members of his family, have been the focus of this murder investigation almost since day one.
The media has the ability to dig through records and ask questions in regards to how this whole custody thing came to be, but that doesn't extend into the criminal investigation unfortunately.I'm not in the USA so my following of this case has been from what is posted here.

So that's the angle we'll keep hearing about until there is a development on the Harmony front.
Massachusetts judge faces questions in case of missing 7-year-old Harmony Montgomery
BOSTON — The team at 5 Investigates tracked down a Massachusetts judge under fire in the case of 7-year-old Harmony Montgomery, the New Hampshire girl who has been missing for two years.
At issue is the judge’s decision to grant custody of the child, Harmony Montgomery, to her father, who has a documented history of criminal activity, much of it violent.
Sources told 5 Investigates the judge is Mark Newman, who retired in August 2019, six months after he granted custody to Harmony's father, Adam Montgomery, who was living in New Hampshire at the time.
View attachment 330705
Newman did not respond when we asked him about his custody decision in the case.
Newman sat on the bench for almost 17 years and received many awards for his work. He was the First Justice of the Essex County Juvenile Court in 2019 when he made the controversial ruling in Harmony's case. He sat as a judge in that court from 2002 until his retirement three years ago.
<snip>
“This is an appalling, appalling decision,” said Child Advocate Maureen Flatley about Newman’s decision to give custody of Harmony to her father. She said it should have been obvious that placing Harmony with her father would put her in harm’s way.
“If anybody suggested that this child might be appropriately placed with a father that had a criminal record that included shooting somebody, they really need to have their head examined," Flatley said.
This is obvious to everyone- so why ? That decision makes no sense and the I am assuming the judge was a sensible person.
Many layers -will the investigation reveal the truth the public? OR like so often.. stop short , find a fall guy and lie and leave it at that.
1st thing I think of when a person in power makes a decision that is so obviously wrong, is there money in the decision?
OR favor or debt payback for the decision?
Was there a massive DCY initiative to get kids (any way they can) out of the system - for a reason in 2019? If so why? MOO-
I wonder if MA will peel back the layers and if so IF it will reveal corruption inherent to the system to the public.
MOO
It's bazaar that a judge MN would blindly hand over a little girl to a dangerous, criminal, drug addict father, not need that assessment of AM prior to placement ( that would have revealed he was a criminal in NH TOO) nor issue and interstate compact to make sure Harmony was adjusting/school/dr etc.
There has to be a reason. Did The Judge skip looking at the paperwork and just signed or was it even his signature? Was he even present? Just wondering because this is so strange.
And then he "retired" in 2019 hmmm , like the many suspicious situation you experience in your life aand you think to yourself sarcastically, "Of course that's the way it went.."
Very suspicious. MOO
I don’t know, his record seems too much not to give pause , seems too much to omit, or be missing from the file so to speak.I don't think there's anything suspicious about a Judge retiring after 17 years on the bench. I don't think it was forced retirement given he's reportedly back working in Massachusetts courtrooms as a fill-in judge.
When all is said and done, I think we'll learn the court had a file that was very incomplete (i.e., missing NH history), and the why will eventually be answered...
I'm reminded of a case post bail reform with the push to grant non-violent offenders low bail to relieve overcrowding in jails and where the defendant's background check did not include Mexico (where he was a known drug cartel murderer). MOO

Sources told 5 Investigates DCF was against this custody placement, but there are questions as to why Harmony was not eligible for adoption.
New Hampshire’s DCYF told 5 Investigates the department was waiting on information from Massachusetts to complete that ICPC, but never received it.
A spokesperson for the Massachusetts Trial Court said an ICPC is applicable in some cases, but not all.
