<v Speaker 1>They're just announcing it isn't that a day late and

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:37.680
<v Speaker 1>a dollar short. They're just finding out Harmony is gone.

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Is she even alive? I'm Nancy Grace. This is Crime Stories.

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for being with us here at Fox Nation

0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>and series M one eleven. Take a listen to our

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:51.560
<v Speaker 1>friends at NBC ten. Police say seven year old Harmony

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Montgomery was last seen at a home in Manchester in

0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>October of twenty nineteen, but authorities day they weren't notified

0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 1>until just this week. We have spoken with family members

0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:05.520
<v Speaker 1>of Harmony and despite doing so, our concerns for the

0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:08.720
<v Speaker 1>whereabouts of her remain. The same. Police now working around

0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:11.479
<v Speaker 1>the claw trying to find the blonde haired, blue eyed

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 1>little girl. People are going to say that and they're

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>going to ask, well, again why two years we cannot

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.399
<v Speaker 1>investigate things if they're not brought to our attention. And

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.399
<v Speaker 1>when this was brought Lauranic authorities say they don't have

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 1>enough information to issue an amber alert at this point

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>because they don't know who she could be with, or

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>the car she might be seen, in the circumstances surrounding

0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:34.200
<v Speaker 1>this prolonged absence of very concerning, and I'll thoroughly be

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>investigated as we speak. You know, maybe he should just

0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:41.760
<v Speaker 1>stop talking because he just said, and this is the

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:47.840
<v Speaker 1>police chaf he says, I can't investigate things if they're

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>not brought to our attention on time. Well, as a

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:54.840
<v Speaker 1>matter of fact, it wasn't brought to their attention on

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:59.160
<v Speaker 1>multiple occasions, all the way back in twenty nineteen, specifically

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>for twenty nineteen. The last time Harmony was seen alive,

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:09.639
<v Speaker 1>police were there and they did nothing. Now she's gone.

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:12.360
<v Speaker 1>We don't know if this child is dead or alive.

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:14.680

0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:17.639

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 1>me go to special guest joining us. It is reporter

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:49.640
<v Speaker 1>or anchor joining us from CMG Washington. Blair is also

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Washington News Bureau Blair Miller. Blair is also the adoptive

0:02:56.360 --> 0:03:01.359
<v Speaker 1>father of Harmony's little brother, Jamis and Blair. When did

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:05.040
<v Speaker 1>you first realize Harmony's missing? You know, that's something we've

0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 1>been trying to trace back ourselves. Um. You know, we've

0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 1>we've had a very open relationship with Jamison's mom, who's

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>also the mom for Harmony, and she has you know,

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:23.760
<v Speaker 1>told us, you know, we adopted Jamison, um three years

0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:26.960
<v Speaker 1>ago and um nearly three years ago in and and

0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>so that's something you know, she's been trying to get

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 1>in touch with Harmony. She's been trying to get in

0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>touch with the dad because there are some custody issues

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:39.600
<v Speaker 1>there and she wanted to try to whatever way to

0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:42.600
<v Speaker 1>try to get touch with Harmony. And you know, that's

0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 1>at least what we were being told. And as far

0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 1>as being officially missing, you know, we didn't know till

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 1>last week. How did you find out? Um, the mom

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 1>caught us and she called us frantically almost in the

0:03:55.880 --> 0:04:00.560
<v Speaker 1>sense of see, I told you something was wrong, and

0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:02.720
<v Speaker 1>and we had a feeling something was wrong too. We

0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:07.080
<v Speaker 1>kept encouraging her to if you feel like something's wrong,

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:09.320
<v Speaker 1>you need to get in touch with the police, with

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>social services, whatever you need to do. She says she

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.279
<v Speaker 1>couldn't get in touch with the father too, that he

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>had blocked her all this stuff, and she just felt

0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.720
<v Speaker 1>like something wasn't right, and she'd been saying that for

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>a long time, and it's hard to know what was

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:28.120
<v Speaker 1>right and what wasn't. Well, Blair, let me point out

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the obvious. It's been two years and the mom has

0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>no idea where her daughter is. It's my understanding now,

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:41.480
<v Speaker 1>you adopted Harmony's brother, little brother, Jamieson. It's my understanding

0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 1>that much of Harmony's younger life. Of course, if this

0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:48.599
<v Speaker 1>child is alife, she's only seven years old now, but

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:52.400
<v Speaker 1>her very young life, she was in and out of

0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 1>foster care, trying to take care of Jamieson, her little brother,

0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:02.479
<v Speaker 1>also Crystal's child. Right, correct, they were, they were both

0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:07.760
<v Speaker 1>in foster homes, and you adopt Jamieson. Correct. And as

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.080
<v Speaker 1>far as Jamison's standpoint, he was in and out about

0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:12.400
<v Speaker 1>nine different foster homes, and we know Harmony was there

0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:16.480
<v Speaker 1>for you know many of those situations and the stories

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.600
<v Speaker 1>we've been told by other foster parents is that Harmony

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:23.599
<v Speaker 1>looked after Jamieson and the two had this bond, and

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Jamison is aware of that bond. In fact, you actually

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.680
<v Speaker 1>have Christmas gifts for her, but you haven't been able

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.400
<v Speaker 1>to see her. Isn't it true you try to adopt

0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>her too, But we're told she had been reunited with

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>her bio dad. When we went through the process with Jamieson,

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:42.960
<v Speaker 1>we said what we instantly heard about harmony. When we

0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 1>first heard about Jamieson's situation, one of our first questions was,

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:49.440
<v Speaker 1>what's harmony situation? And is this a situation where we

0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>need to consider adopting both of them? Because if that's

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:55.760
<v Speaker 1>the case, we would do it. But we were quickly

0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:59.479
<v Speaker 1>told this is harmony. Situation has already been closed and

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:01.520
<v Speaker 1>she's been night with their father And they can't ask

0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:03.680
<v Speaker 1>you who told you that? Well, when we work through

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>social Services in Massachusetts, when we used to live in Boston,

0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:11.159
<v Speaker 1>you mean like Defacts Department, Family Children's Services. Yeah, okay,

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:17.919
<v Speaker 1>they're awful. They're the devil because Blair, I can't tell

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:22.680
<v Speaker 1>you how many cases I worked as a prosecutor a

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:27.800
<v Speaker 1>felony prosecutor investigating and trying cases where defects would go

0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:31.320
<v Speaker 1>into a horrible situation and leave the child there and

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.400
<v Speaker 1>then the child would end up dead, over and over

0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:39.799
<v Speaker 1>and over again. And in this particular case, Blair defacts

0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>was called over and over and over. And this says,

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 1>after they tell you would be loving parent for harmony, No,

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.680
<v Speaker 1>you can't have her. She's back with her bio dad

0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.440
<v Speaker 1>that we took her away from to start with. I

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:56.720
<v Speaker 1>don't understand that, Blair. Well, I think we're trying to

0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:00.839
<v Speaker 1>understand that too right now, and we're retracing everything, every

0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:03.279
<v Speaker 1>bit of paperwork we were ever given to try to

0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:07.400
<v Speaker 1>understand what was the situation in and why was that happening,

0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>because there are a lot of serious questions, and you know,

0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Blair Miller guys joining me with you're with Cox correct, correct,

0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm based in DC and reported an anchor for stations

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:21.320
<v Speaker 1>cross Country. Blair. I mean, it just pains me to

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>know that this little girl who was called police were

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:28.200
<v Speaker 1>called on her when she had a black eye in

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 1>a home about July August twenty nineteen. Then neighbors called

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:38.280
<v Speaker 1>about a month later about the horrible living conditions this

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:42.640
<v Speaker 1>little girl was surviving in nothing was done again. October.

0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Relative calls again because there's a huge fight in the house.

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>They see harmony there, they know it's a bad situation.

0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:56.960
<v Speaker 1>They do nothing, and now she's gone. Guys, take a

0:07:57.000 --> 0:08:00.680
<v Speaker 1>listen to our friend Diane Show NBC ten. Police would

0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.440
<v Speaker 1>not disclose the address of the home she was last seen,

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 1>but when asked about the circumstances involved, the police chief

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:09.040
<v Speaker 1>says it was the result of a call to service

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 1>that involved the police department that called. The service was

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 1>handled and that is the last time she has been

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.040
<v Speaker 1>seen here in the city of Manchester. I'm not saying

0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:19.920
<v Speaker 1>that she has not been seen somewhere else. With so

0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:23.800
<v Speaker 1>many unanswered questions, authorities are now pleading for the public's

0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:28.160
<v Speaker 1>help finding this little girl. I'm asking even I'll go

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 1>as far as I'm begging the community. I don't care

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.160
<v Speaker 1>if you saw this young girl a year ago and

0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.840
<v Speaker 1>you think it's irrelevant, call us. If you have any

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:38.120
<v Speaker 1>information that can help in this case. You're asked to

0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:42.200
<v Speaker 1>call Manchester Police. A brand new tip line twenty four

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.280
<v Speaker 1>to make sense of what we're hearing. Straight out to

0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:20.839
<v Speaker 1>Crime online dot Com investigative reporter Nicole Parton. Thank you

0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Nicole for being with us. It's very rare that you

0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:27.120
<v Speaker 1>hear this child is missing. Last time she was seen

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:31.560
<v Speaker 1>was two years ago. It's reminiscent of when Top Mom

0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:35.280
<v Speaker 1>Gacy Anthony's child Kelly was reported and she had been

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:39.880
<v Speaker 1>missing thirty days. But this is even worse. So let's

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:43.320
<v Speaker 1>just start at the beginning, Nicole, what happened and who

0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:45.360
<v Speaker 1>is she with? The last time she was saying the

0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:48.280
<v Speaker 1>mom or the dad. So, Nancy, you're right. You and

0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I have covered a lot of missing persons, probably over

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:54.800
<v Speaker 1>the twenty years of service together, hundreds of them. Never

0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:57.480
<v Speaker 1>have we seen where the person is missing for two

0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:03.280
<v Speaker 1>years before reported missing. So the last known whereabouts Little

0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Harmony is with her father and it's the police who

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 1>see her last. Because the police are called out to

0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:14.840
<v Speaker 1>the home because of a family feud and argument. The

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:17.920
<v Speaker 1>neighbors call nine to one they hear this rupt us.

0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 1>We also have reports from an uncle who says he's

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.920
<v Speaker 1>trying to push his way through the front door he

0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:27.439
<v Speaker 1>can see Harmony in the house. We have these reports

0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:32.600
<v Speaker 1>of her last siding. That's October twenty nineteen, and this

0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 1>is what I understand. Back out to Blair Miller Blair,

0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.880
<v Speaker 1>who is an anchor and reporter for Cox in Washington.

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:46.679
<v Speaker 1>Blair adopted Harmony's little brother, and so that's how he's

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 1>in the mix. So Blair, this is what I understand.

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:55.040
<v Speaker 1>The home where she was last seen. I believe it

0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:59.680
<v Speaker 1>was at seventy seven Crawford Street something like that. They're

0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:05.439
<v Speaker 1>in Manchester, New Hampshire. The cops go out there October

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:09.920
<v Speaker 1>one because of a family fracas and the uncle, Kevin

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Montgomery's trying to get back in. Was the dispute over Harmony,

0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:18.520
<v Speaker 1>because I've researched that it was, but I'm not sure

0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:20.760
<v Speaker 1>about that. We're not sure about that either. I mean,

0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:22.880
<v Speaker 1>we've spoken a little bit with Kevin Montgomery as well,

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 1>and we spoke on the number of family members trying

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 1>to understand who last saw her, what did they see.

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:32.080
<v Speaker 1>We've been talking with police asking the same thing and

0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.040
<v Speaker 1>sharing what we know, but that that really is a

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.880
<v Speaker 1>mystery of her. You know, what was that about? How

0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:42.960
<v Speaker 1>far did it go? And what happened after that? Okay,

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:47.720
<v Speaker 1>so it's seventy seven Guilford Street. Now here's an odd part.

0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:52.960
<v Speaker 1>There were Montgomeries living there, relatives of little harmony. But

0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:57.079
<v Speaker 1>then right after that the home is foreclosed. They all

0:11:57.120 --> 0:12:00.600
<v Speaker 1>move away and new people move in. Now, in the

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:04.600
<v Speaker 1>last hours, there has been a massive search at that

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:09.560
<v Speaker 1>home where she was last seen, the seventy seven Guildford Street.

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:12.240
<v Speaker 1>The people that live there now are not connected to

0:12:12.280 --> 0:12:16.240
<v Speaker 1>this case. They have been very helpful and cooperative. In fact,

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 1>we were told that dogs were brought out and the

0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:23.160
<v Speaker 1>dogs went through the house, found nothing. Dogs went in

0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:28.040
<v Speaker 1>the backyard and dug up a corner of the backyard.

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Robert Crispin, private investigator, former cop now at Crispin Special

0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Investigations dot Com. I've got a really bad attitude, all right, Robert,

0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I've got a bad attitude because right now I hate everybody.

0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:43.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm usually on the cop side, but come on. The

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:47.720
<v Speaker 1>cops were called out there in July, in August, in October.

0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:51.240
<v Speaker 1>They are called when this little child has a black eye,

0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:55.640
<v Speaker 1>defaxes in on it. They screw it up, say mate

0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:59.040
<v Speaker 1>dropped the ball, really doesn't do it justice, the cops

0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:04.040
<v Speaker 1>don't do anything, saying relatives don't do anything. The only

0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:07.680
<v Speaker 1>person that really did anything was Blair Miller because he

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:15.120
<v Speaker 1>saved the little brother Jamison from this cesspool that Harmony's

0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:19.160
<v Speaker 1>living in. So right now, I ain't everybody you don't answer,

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:22.199
<v Speaker 1>I gotta say it's an epic failure on every level

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:25.280
<v Speaker 1>in this case, starting with law enforcement that went to

0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:28.800
<v Speaker 1>the house. You know, I've been there twice. I've seen

0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:32.520
<v Speaker 1>these guys respond to these houses. I've seen people not

0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:35.480
<v Speaker 1>do their job. I can't tell you of countless cases

0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I've dealt with DFF even in the private sector. Could

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:43.600
<v Speaker 1>you leave a little child in that mess? And on

0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:47.200
<v Speaker 1>the first occasion when Kevin Montgomery called the cops, according

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 1>to him, the child, the little girl had a black eye.

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:54.959
<v Speaker 1>Now this little girl, to make it even more upsetting,

0:13:56.520 --> 0:14:02.840
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful, is actually blind in her right eye. So

0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:05.040
<v Speaker 1>when you see the pictures of her, all the photos

0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 1>we can show you are two years old. So has

0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 1>she cut her hair, we don't know. Does she look

0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:14.760
<v Speaker 1>the same, we don't know, Because the last photo of

0:14:14.800 --> 0:14:18.440
<v Speaker 1>this child is two years old. You know, how many

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:24.600
<v Speaker 1>pictures I've got on this thing right here? Maybe forty thousand,

0:14:24.880 --> 0:14:29.520
<v Speaker 1>not kidding pictures. And they're all of the twins. They're

0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:31.920
<v Speaker 1>so tired of me taking their picture. But to think

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:34.880
<v Speaker 1>nobody's taking a picture of this child for two years.

0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:40.920
<v Speaker 1>The only person that did anything remotely helpful was Blair Miller,

0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:46.080
<v Speaker 1>the reporter for Cox, because he adopted the little brother.

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.640
<v Speaker 1>So we also have Robert Crispin. Let me let you

0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>percolate with this. She was last in school in Massachusetts.

0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:58.960
<v Speaker 1>So when she doesn't come back, they're having back in school.

0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:03.280
<v Speaker 1>They're not remote, so she doesn't show up. Did anybody go, hey,

0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 1>where's harmony? Oh? Hell no, they did nothing. Robert epics

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 1>failure on the school system. Where is this kid? How

0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:15.320
<v Speaker 1>come this kids dropped out of zoom? How come this

0:15:15.440 --> 0:15:18.560
<v Speaker 1>kids dropped out of in person learning? What's going on?

0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>It's going to all start to come together. I'm gonna

0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:23.400
<v Speaker 1>tell you, Nancy, these these guys who responded to that

0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:27.240
<v Speaker 1>callback in October of nineteen, they have some serious explaining

0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:29.440
<v Speaker 1>to do. And that's where this entire case is going

0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:31.680
<v Speaker 1>to start from. It's going to start from that day.

0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Moving forward, time stories with Nancy grace. Doctor Jerry crossing

0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 1>with me psychologist, faculty Saint Leo University, author of Operations,

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Doctor Jerry, thanks for being with us. My I hate

0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:03.640
<v Speaker 1>everybody moment. It is really not helping this at all.

0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:07.360
<v Speaker 1>There were times that would be so frustrated and angry

0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:11.440
<v Speaker 1>when I would be investigating or prosecuting a case. I'd

0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:13.520
<v Speaker 1>have to pull off the road and just sit there

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:16.280
<v Speaker 1>and pull it back together and get back on the

0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 1>road and continue investigating the case. The anger really doesn't

0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:23.800
<v Speaker 1>help anything. But I can tell you right now, I

0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:25.920
<v Speaker 1>want to chew a nail in half, and I think

0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:29.400
<v Speaker 1>I could do it, Doctor Jordy. There's so many fingers

0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:31.880
<v Speaker 1>to point, but I just find it interesting what Blair

0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:34.640
<v Speaker 1>and Miller is telling us. And let me tell you something.

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:40.400
<v Speaker 1>He is air brushing it. He's being super nice because

0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:45.640
<v Speaker 1>his son, his adopted son. It's Jamison, isn't that his name? Blair? Yeah,

0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:51.920
<v Speaker 1>has the same mother as Harmony, different dads, same mom,

0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:56.680
<v Speaker 1>and he's being super sweet about her. But it will

0:16:56.760 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 1>be a cold day in hell that I go two

0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 1>years and I don't know where my child is. I

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:07.280
<v Speaker 1>don't care if she has visitation acrossody or what you

0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 1>know where your child is, doctor Jory. I mean this

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:16.680
<v Speaker 1>is crazy talk. You know, Statistically, in these cases, drugs

0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:20.040
<v Speaker 1>are going to be adding her to my hate list. Yes, okay,

0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:24.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm backing you up on this one. You know, drugs

0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.640
<v Speaker 1>have to be involved somewhere, especially with as young as

0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:33.480
<v Speaker 1>the children are in the involvement of dcf uh. You know,

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:37.920
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not I'm looking at causation and not giving excuses.

0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:41.639
<v Speaker 1>You're not really helping me, Jory. How to give you

0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:45.960
<v Speaker 1>some therapy here? Okay? Yeah, your your righteous anger is correct.

0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:51.080
<v Speaker 1>And a parent, especially somebody in that family that has

0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:54.959
<v Speaker 1>not seen her uh and waste two years, you know.

0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean I would still be beating on doors to

0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:00.720
<v Speaker 1>get somebody involved, even d y after. If you're not

0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:04.399
<v Speaker 1>getting responses, there's other avenues to take. I mean, go

0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:07.640
<v Speaker 1>to the media, you get to the state police. I've

0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:10.399
<v Speaker 1>always said that defects needs to go right into the

0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:14.320
<v Speaker 1>deep fry down in hell because I've seen too many

0:18:14.960 --> 0:18:19.040
<v Speaker 1>body bags of children they left behind. Because I've seen

0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:21.480
<v Speaker 1>too many body bags a little children they left in

0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:26.320
<v Speaker 1>the home. Guys, take a listen to this. We have

0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:29.600
<v Speaker 1>spoken with as many family members as we can at

0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:31.760
<v Speaker 1>this point, and we'll continue to do so. But I

0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:34.840
<v Speaker 1>will go back to the point that she was last

0:18:34.840 --> 0:18:38.920
<v Speaker 1>seen Addie Residence in Manchester in the October time frame

0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:42.560
<v Speaker 1>with two thou nineteen. We Manchester Police became aware of

0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:45.160
<v Speaker 1>this this week. And I know people are going to say, well,

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:48.520
<v Speaker 1>here it is two twenty one, almost two twenty two,

0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:53.040
<v Speaker 1>and nobody's seen this young girl since late of October

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:56.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty nineteen, So what's happened in the last two years?

0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:00.639
<v Speaker 1>Fair question? All right, that's why I'm here today. We

0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:04.960
<v Speaker 1>need assistance, we need help, and we don't have many

0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:08.000
<v Speaker 1>answers to many questions that we have, and we'll continue

0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:13.720
<v Speaker 1>to work and speak with the family ongoing as we speak. Okay,

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:15.520
<v Speaker 1>he didn't really give me any answers right there as

0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.879
<v Speaker 1>to why they've done nothing since they last saw the

0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:20.119
<v Speaker 1>little girl, as since they saw her with a black

0:19:20.160 --> 0:19:24.560
<v Speaker 1>eye and d facts hasn't even shown their face at all.

0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Do you blame them? Also, take a listen now, as

0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:33.000
<v Speaker 1>a man Chester in Hampshire Police Chief Alan Aldenberg address

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:37.159
<v Speaker 1>says the school issue, take a listen. Last time she

0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.760
<v Speaker 1>was enrolled in any type of school. From my understanding,

0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:44.080
<v Speaker 1>you have to be confirmed as down in Massachusetts. But

0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:49.280
<v Speaker 1>again she's seven right now, so twenty nineteen five years old,

0:19:49.600 --> 0:19:53.919
<v Speaker 1>probably right around that kindergarten timeframe. Again, we've spoken with

0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:56.639
<v Speaker 1>family members and we'll continue to do so. I know,

0:19:56.720 --> 0:19:59.240
<v Speaker 1>I keep coming back to that, and that's a fair question, right,

0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:01.880
<v Speaker 1>did we speak to mom? Did we speak to dad?

0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Did we speak to this belt? Were speaking to any

0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:07.760
<v Speaker 1>and all family members that come to our attention and

0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:10.639
<v Speaker 1>ones that we are seeking out as well. He just

0:20:10.720 --> 0:20:13.080
<v Speaker 1>keeps saying over and never speaking to the family. I

0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:15.800
<v Speaker 1>guess that's the same family that gave her a black eye.

0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:17.159
<v Speaker 1>I doubt there's going to be a whole lot of

0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:22.000
<v Speaker 1>help to you. Nicole. Deboord houts Club joining us out

0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.159
<v Speaker 1>Defense dot com. Way in Nicole, he had sounds like

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:31.919
<v Speaker 1>a terrible math. I mean, when you started an investigation

0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:34.879
<v Speaker 1>two years after an incident, you are going to be

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:38.480
<v Speaker 1>missing critical information. I think this is going to be very,

0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:43.160
<v Speaker 1>very difficult for law enforcement to put together at this point. Unfortunately. Yeah,

0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:45.399
<v Speaker 1>but I can tell you when people say it's like

0:20:45.400 --> 0:20:48.080
<v Speaker 1>a needle in a haystack, the needle, in my opinion

0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:51.720
<v Speaker 1>is the father, because we are hearing from Blair Miller

0:20:52.280 --> 0:20:56.479
<v Speaker 1>that the mom hasn't had custody or visitation with this

0:20:56.520 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 1>little girl in about two years. So however we may

0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:02.240
<v Speaker 1>or may not want to judge her. I don't have

0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:05.639
<v Speaker 1>time to judge her character. But she doesn't have the

0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:08.679
<v Speaker 1>little girl. That's really all I care about right now. Now,

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:12.360
<v Speaker 1>I want you to listen to our cut nineteen nineteen.

0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:15.600
<v Speaker 1>Listen to what the chief of police says. Well, we

0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:20.159
<v Speaker 1>ask people, don't play detective. Okay, don't play police officer.

0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:22.880
<v Speaker 1>That is our job. That's the men and women's job

0:21:22.920 --> 0:21:27.359
<v Speaker 1>that work under Captain Leaden. People going on social media

0:21:27.400 --> 0:21:30.720
<v Speaker 1>and circulating their opinions of their theories to do nothing,

0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:34.080
<v Speaker 1>nothing for this investigation and are no good and are

0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:36.800
<v Speaker 1>no helpful in trying to locate harmony. I asked, if

0:21:36.840 --> 0:21:39.320
<v Speaker 1>you leave that work to where it belongs to. It

0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:42.440
<v Speaker 1>belongs to the Manchester Police Department. We're two years behind

0:21:42.440 --> 0:21:46.199
<v Speaker 1>the power curve. Leave it to the Manchester Police Department

0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:50.719
<v Speaker 1>because they've done such a great job so far. Really,

0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:56.359
<v Speaker 1>does anybody remember on this panel, Let's go to you

0:21:56.440 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Nicole parton Crime online dot Com. The whole reason that

0:22:00.960 --> 0:22:06.400
<v Speaker 1>Gabby Potito's body was found was because of social media

0:22:06.480 --> 0:22:10.880
<v Speaker 1>and people, as he says, playing detective, they happened to

0:22:10.920 --> 0:22:15.560
<v Speaker 1>see Gabby's van and they had a picture of it,

0:22:15.880 --> 0:22:19.960
<v Speaker 1>and that's how Gabby was found. And those cops, the FBI,

0:22:20.480 --> 0:22:25.000
<v Speaker 1>all the local cops in Florida, Adam, Wyoming, all across

0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:29.080
<v Speaker 1>in Yellowstone, they didn't turn down the help. They used

0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:34.359
<v Speaker 1>it and they found Gabby's body. So what is this cop,

0:22:35.000 --> 0:22:39.840
<v Speaker 1>uh Alan Aldenberg telling people? Don't play detective, don't play

0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:45.560
<v Speaker 1>police officer, really, because if we don't microphone, who's that

0:22:46.640 --> 0:22:49.080
<v Speaker 1>jumping Crispin? Listen, he shouldn't be the one front of

0:22:49.080 --> 0:22:50.879
<v Speaker 1>the microphone right now. And I'm not really liking what

0:22:50.880 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 1>he's saying because I will tell you, from twenty five

0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:56.680
<v Speaker 1>years in law enforcement, the public helped me solve so

0:22:56.720 --> 0:23:00.959
<v Speaker 1>many crime. Social media today, social media, it's incredible. Law

0:23:01.000 --> 0:23:04.920
<v Speaker 1>enforcement gives you the leads that you need. People come

0:23:04.960 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>forward in social media, people make comments. Those comments turns

0:23:07.800 --> 0:23:10.800
<v Speaker 1>into leads, Those leads turn into arrest, those arrestaurants, conviction.

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:13.360
<v Speaker 1>That's how it works. Even a prosecutor, you know that,

0:23:13.520 --> 0:23:16.200
<v Speaker 1>you darn right, Crispin. I mean, I'm just getting chills

0:23:16.200 --> 0:23:18.159
<v Speaker 1>on my right arm right now. I'm so angry with

0:23:18.280 --> 0:23:24.200
<v Speaker 1>this officer, this police chief Aldenburgh. No, he didn't take

0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:27.120
<v Speaker 1>the child, but he's not helping right now. Another thing,

0:23:27.600 --> 0:23:33.879
<v Speaker 1>don't get involved. Wasn't it an email to you, Blair Miller?

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:38.760
<v Speaker 1>This is the adoptive dad of Jamison. This is Harmony's

0:23:38.960 --> 0:23:42.040
<v Speaker 1>little brother. That this little girl tried to take care

0:23:42.080 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 1>of her little brother and foster care. Can you imagine

0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:48.960
<v Speaker 1>that she's seven now, if she's still alive, and while

0:23:49.040 --> 0:23:52.119
<v Speaker 1>Jamison and she were in foster care, she's trying to

0:23:52.160 --> 0:23:56.040
<v Speaker 1>take care of a little brother. Blair Miller, a reporter

0:23:56.240 --> 0:24:00.840
<v Speaker 1>and anchor with Cox News who has adopted Jamison. Isn't

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:04.120
<v Speaker 1>it true that the whole reason somebody put a fire

0:24:04.600 --> 0:24:07.960
<v Speaker 1>under the cops rear in is because there was an

0:24:08.000 --> 0:24:12.800
<v Speaker 1>email sent to the mayor's office about defects not following

0:24:12.840 --> 0:24:15.520
<v Speaker 1>through on Harmony's case. Now the mom is now taking

0:24:15.520 --> 0:24:18.720
<v Speaker 1>credit for that. I know I've heard Elsa it was anonymous.

0:24:18.720 --> 0:24:20.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who's sent it, but that's how the

0:24:20.359 --> 0:24:22.960
<v Speaker 1>whole thing correct whine open. And that's what we've been told.

0:24:23.000 --> 0:24:25.840
<v Speaker 1>And like I said earlier, we've always had a very

0:24:25.880 --> 0:24:31.120
<v Speaker 1>open relationship with the mom and we've encouraged her countless

0:24:31.160 --> 0:24:34.440
<v Speaker 1>times to go to police, go to anyone who will listen,

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:38.280
<v Speaker 1>go to DCF, and we even said can we do

0:24:38.280 --> 0:24:40.119
<v Speaker 1>that for you? Can we can we help with that?

0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 1>And do we need to get police involved? What do

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:45.520
<v Speaker 1>we need to do? And we try to reach out

0:24:45.560 --> 0:24:48.639
<v Speaker 1>to the father on social media to see if we

0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:51.600
<v Speaker 1>could connect with him to see Nicole. What's the dad's name, yes,

0:24:51.800 --> 0:24:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Adam Montgomery, Yeah, okay. And the uncle who is Harmony's

0:24:56.680 --> 0:25:01.359
<v Speaker 1>great uncle, it's Adam Montgomery's uncle is Kevin Montgomery. The

0:25:01.400 --> 0:25:06.040
<v Speaker 1>one missing that we seem to think Harmony was last

0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:11.480
<v Speaker 1>with is Adam Montgomery Blair. Was Adam Montgomery living in

0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:14.399
<v Speaker 1>New Hampshire or had he moved? We were when we

0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:17.640
<v Speaker 1>adopted Jamison. We were told that Harmony was reunited with

0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:21.000
<v Speaker 1>her father back in February of twenty nineteen, and that

0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:24.280
<v Speaker 1>was in New Hampshire. And that's about the level of

0:25:24.320 --> 0:25:27.159
<v Speaker 1>detail that we were given in the moments that we

0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:29.880
<v Speaker 1>were adopting Jamison and trying to sort out his situation

0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:33.640
<v Speaker 1>in his family situation. Okay, that is helpful, That's very

0:25:33.640 --> 0:25:37.400
<v Speaker 1>helpful because Robert Crispin's If he's in another state, that's

0:25:37.440 --> 0:25:40.560
<v Speaker 1>going to lead to all kind of jurisdictional problems. But

0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:45.280
<v Speaker 1>if he's in Hampshire, we know he's got a social

0:25:45.320 --> 0:25:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Security number. He's either working or he's collecting a check.

0:25:50.280 --> 0:25:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Either way, you can find him through a social I mean,

0:25:53.400 --> 0:25:55.320
<v Speaker 1>do I need to call the police chief and tail

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:57.520
<v Speaker 1>him that or we're going to find him on a

0:25:57.600 --> 0:25:59.720
<v Speaker 1>license plate reader. If he's got a card, he's out

0:25:59.760 --> 0:26:02.240
<v Speaker 1>run around. Those license plate readers are going to track

0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:03.879
<v Speaker 1>you all over the country and that's why I'm going

0:26:03.960 --> 0:26:07.439
<v Speaker 1>to find you. And there is the possibility, Crispin, that

0:26:07.640 --> 0:26:11.040
<v Speaker 1>they have already found him and the girl's not with him.

0:26:11.119 --> 0:26:13.119
<v Speaker 1>This is very true, and what would leave me to

0:26:13.160 --> 0:26:18.320
<v Speaker 1>believe that is the emotional original public release by the

0:26:18.400 --> 0:26:21.159
<v Speaker 1>chief when he became all choked up. It led me

0:26:21.200 --> 0:26:23.119
<v Speaker 1>to believe that he knew a lot more than what

0:26:23.200 --> 0:26:25.320
<v Speaker 1>he could tell the public at this point, because they

0:26:25.320 --> 0:26:29.520
<v Speaker 1>were trying to gather enough evidence for an indictment for somebody,

0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:32.320
<v Speaker 1>and he already knew the facts, and this really hit

0:26:32.400 --> 0:26:34.719
<v Speaker 1>him hard, and it was tough for him to actually

0:26:34.720 --> 0:26:37.400
<v Speaker 1>give that first one because of what he may already

0:26:37.440 --> 0:26:39.879
<v Speaker 1>know you'd be surprised, Nancy, And you know this as

0:26:39.920 --> 0:26:43.760
<v Speaker 1>a prosecutor. The public only gets a tidbit of information

0:26:43.880 --> 0:26:46.120
<v Speaker 1>because law enforcement has to keep what they know close

0:26:46.160 --> 0:26:49.080
<v Speaker 1>to the best so the freaks don't come out of

0:26:49.320 --> 0:26:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the woodwork and the psychos come out of the woodwork

0:26:52.440 --> 0:26:55.119
<v Speaker 1>to try to take credit for things and just muddy

0:26:55.200 --> 0:26:58.119
<v Speaker 1>up the water, or to preserve evidence, or to make

0:26:58.160 --> 0:27:01.520
<v Speaker 1>sure certain evidence doesn't get tampered with or destroyed because

0:27:01.560 --> 0:27:04.400
<v Speaker 1>somebody knows ah while they already know about that piece

0:27:04.440 --> 0:27:05.800
<v Speaker 1>of evidence, I have to go get rid of that

0:27:05.920 --> 0:27:09.160
<v Speaker 1>right now. That's why these press conferences are a tough

0:27:09.359 --> 0:27:12.280
<v Speaker 1>position for certain people. And believe me, I do not

0:27:12.480 --> 0:27:15.560
<v Speaker 1>think this Chief Aldeburgh was the one that answered that

0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:19.040
<v Speaker 1>call that saw Harmony with a black eye, that left

0:27:19.040 --> 0:27:21.160
<v Speaker 1>her when there was a huge fight going on, possibly

0:27:21.200 --> 0:27:24.359
<v Speaker 1>about her, and the uncle is calling, calling, calling the

0:27:24.359 --> 0:27:27.240
<v Speaker 1>neighbors or calling trying to get help for Harmony. I

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:29.239
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's the one in that patrol car. They

0:27:29.240 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 1>have a completely additional situation they need to deal with.

0:27:31.840 --> 0:27:36.160
<v Speaker 1>What's their policy about reporting this to DCF as soon

0:27:36.200 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 1>as they walk out of that house. If they think

0:27:37.600 --> 0:27:42.159
<v Speaker 1>that that child is in in danger. Obviously they have

0:27:42.240 --> 0:27:44.800
<v Speaker 1>to take the kid. If they think it's you know,

0:27:45.040 --> 0:27:48.840
<v Speaker 1>not a danger imminent to the child, it still needs

0:27:48.840 --> 0:27:52.240
<v Speaker 1>to be reported to DCF. Some agencies have a mandatory

0:27:52.280 --> 0:27:56.040
<v Speaker 1>reporting requirement. Well, it's my understanding they had been under

0:27:56.119 --> 0:27:59.080
<v Speaker 1>DCF care because they've been placed in foster homes, so

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:06.680
<v Speaker 1>they call it their DCYF Department Children Youth. That's where

0:28:06.680 --> 0:28:10.480
<v Speaker 1>the why comes in. But DCF defacts had to be

0:28:10.560 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 1>part of it if they had been in foster care.

0:28:23.080 --> 0:28:28.199
<v Speaker 1>Time stories with Nancy Grace Blair Miller back to you,

0:28:28.240 --> 0:28:31.680
<v Speaker 1>and again, I already know you're not going to say

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:35.800
<v Speaker 1>a bad word about the bio mom. Can you tell

0:28:35.880 --> 0:28:39.080
<v Speaker 1>me was it your understanding, not that you knew or

0:28:39.120 --> 0:28:42.440
<v Speaker 1>saw her, but was it your understanding she was with

0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:46.320
<v Speaker 1>the bio dad and that bio mom had been trying

0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:49.640
<v Speaker 1>to reach them online. That's very much our understanding, and

0:28:50.480 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 1>our understanding was the mom was trying it sounded like

0:28:56.360 --> 0:28:59.280
<v Speaker 1>very hard to get in touch with her, getting in

0:28:59.280 --> 0:29:02.719
<v Speaker 1>touch with the daughter I telephone. Keep in mind us

0:29:02.760 --> 0:29:06.440
<v Speaker 1>of Massachusetts to New Hampshire, and so I think she

0:29:06.520 --> 0:29:10.640
<v Speaker 1>was trying to locate all that and figure that out. Okay, now,

0:29:10.720 --> 0:29:14.479
<v Speaker 1>we're hearing that he was still in New Hampshire. Do

0:29:14.520 --> 0:29:17.120
<v Speaker 1>you have reason to believe he moved to Massachusetts. I

0:29:17.200 --> 0:29:19.000
<v Speaker 1>don't have any reason to believe her is the mom

0:29:19.040 --> 0:29:22.240
<v Speaker 1>in Massachusetts New Hampshire. We've always known her to be

0:29:22.240 --> 0:29:25.600
<v Speaker 1>in Massachusetts. Okay, now I understand what you're saying. Isn't

0:29:25.640 --> 0:29:30.920
<v Speaker 1>there another little brother? Didn't Harmony have two brothers? Yes,

0:29:31.040 --> 0:29:34.280
<v Speaker 1>there's a mom has had a child here in the

0:29:34.360 --> 0:29:38.920
<v Speaker 1>last I think maybe two years. Where is that baby?

0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:43.400
<v Speaker 1>And baby's with her and so she has that baby. Okay, guys,

0:29:43.400 --> 0:29:45.760
<v Speaker 1>take a listen to our cut eleven. This is Scott

0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Cook wmu R News nine. When last scene, Harmony was

0:29:49.880 --> 0:29:52.960
<v Speaker 1>about four feet tall. She has blonde hair, blue eyes,

0:29:53.000 --> 0:29:55.240
<v Speaker 1>and is blind in her right eye, so she may

0:29:55.320 --> 0:29:57.880
<v Speaker 1>be wearing glasses. Police say she may have been going

0:29:57.920 --> 0:30:00.920
<v Speaker 1>to school in Massachusetts when last se Who care if

0:30:01.000 --> 0:30:03.720
<v Speaker 1>you saw this young girl a year ago and you

0:30:03.760 --> 0:30:06.800
<v Speaker 1>think it's irrelevant, call us and say I saw her

0:30:06.840 --> 0:30:09.760
<v Speaker 1>a year ago, I saw her eighteen months ago, I

0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:14.240
<v Speaker 1>saw her a week ago. Let's lessen that two year

0:30:14.240 --> 0:30:16.800
<v Speaker 1>window and keep bringing it, keep shrinking that two year

0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:19.920
<v Speaker 1>window to the present day to day, and let's chase

0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:23.800
<v Speaker 1>down every possible avenue with the hopes of finding Harmony,

0:30:23.960 --> 0:30:27.240
<v Speaker 1>and Manchester Police tell us they just found out earlier

0:30:27.280 --> 0:30:30.840
<v Speaker 1>this week that Harmony was missing again. They're asking anyone

0:30:30.880 --> 0:30:32.800
<v Speaker 1>who may have seen her in the last two years

0:30:32.840 --> 0:30:35.880
<v Speaker 1>to give them a call. This whole thing is sideways,

0:30:35.960 --> 0:30:40.000
<v Speaker 1>doctor Jerry Crossen. She should be in school somewhere. She

0:30:40.200 --> 0:30:43.000
<v Speaker 1>had been in school in Massachusetts, then they moved to

0:30:43.040 --> 0:30:47.520
<v Speaker 1>New Hampshire, Massachusetts. Never bothered to notice that Harmony was

0:30:47.600 --> 0:30:50.680
<v Speaker 1>missing or raise an alarm about it. But she should

0:30:50.720 --> 0:30:54.600
<v Speaker 1>be in school somewhere, right, Yeah, And you know that's

0:30:54.680 --> 0:30:57.760
<v Speaker 1>kind of an easy thing to check. I mean the

0:30:57.840 --> 0:31:00.680
<v Speaker 1>school system here. We got thirty three thousand students in

0:31:00.680 --> 0:31:03.080
<v Speaker 1>my county. But you know, we know what students we

0:31:03.120 --> 0:31:05.800
<v Speaker 1>can check that and that's for the police. That's a

0:31:06.480 --> 0:31:08.920
<v Speaker 1>step one. It should be in you know, at least

0:31:08.920 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 1>eliminating that she's not in school any or she's not

0:31:12.160 --> 0:31:16.239
<v Speaker 1>registered on a zoo line or in homeschooling. You know,

0:31:16.760 --> 0:31:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not ruling out this child is alive somewhere, but

0:31:21.000 --> 0:31:24.440
<v Speaker 1>the fact that she's not in school and nobody can

0:31:24.480 --> 0:31:27.120
<v Speaker 1>find her, and I believe it would be as Crispin

0:31:27.240 --> 0:31:30.240
<v Speaker 1>says pretty easy to track the dad and find him

0:31:30.240 --> 0:31:33.719
<v Speaker 1>and she's not there. Although I don't take any hope

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Nicole Hotch Globe joining us out of Houston, with the

0:31:37.600 --> 0:31:42.640
<v Speaker 1>fact that they showed up a residence with dogs that

0:31:43.000 --> 0:31:45.240
<v Speaker 1>dug up and then dug up part of the backyard,

0:31:45.480 --> 0:31:48.920
<v Speaker 1>that's definitely not encouraging. And the reality is that two

0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:52.600
<v Speaker 1>years later, a lot of biological evidence that we would

0:31:52.600 --> 0:31:54.959
<v Speaker 1>have ordinarily been able to track down maybe in that

0:31:55.040 --> 0:31:58.160
<v Speaker 1>house is just not going to be available. There's a

0:31:58.200 --> 0:32:00.960
<v Speaker 1>new family living in the house, and there are going

0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:04.239
<v Speaker 1>to be you know, there's a cleaning that's gone on,

0:32:04.400 --> 0:32:06.400
<v Speaker 1>there's living that's gone on, and it's going to be

0:32:06.480 --> 0:32:10.320
<v Speaker 1>very difficult for a forensic team to collect necessary evidence

0:32:10.440 --> 0:32:13.080
<v Speaker 1>to make an assessment about what could have happened. Now

0:32:13.240 --> 0:32:19.520
<v Speaker 1>listen to Amy Casino wmure our cut fourteen investigators say

0:32:19.560 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 1>they have talked with many many family members of seven

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:26.760
<v Speaker 1>year old Harmony Montgomery, but declined to elaborate on which ones.

0:32:27.360 --> 0:32:29.880
<v Speaker 1>The chief confirms that she was in the child welfare

0:32:29.920 --> 0:32:33.360
<v Speaker 1>system in both Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and that it

0:32:33.440 --> 0:32:37.640
<v Speaker 1>was DCYF here in New Hampshire that notified them last week.

0:32:37.840 --> 0:32:42.080
<v Speaker 1>That Harmony was missing last scene two years ago. How

0:32:42.120 --> 0:32:44.920
<v Speaker 1>does two years ago while before that agency flags at

0:32:44.960 --> 0:32:47.520
<v Speaker 1>the lawn horse? Sure, question, that's the question I've asked.

0:32:48.560 --> 0:32:54.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, Hopefully at some point along this I get

0:32:54.080 --> 0:32:58.480
<v Speaker 1>an answer to you know, according to our sources, the

0:32:58.800 --> 0:33:03.840
<v Speaker 1>mother and the bio Crystal Sorry is saying she's the

0:33:03.880 --> 0:33:08.400
<v Speaker 1>one that sent the email to the Mayor's office learning

0:33:08.400 --> 0:33:11.080
<v Speaker 1>them that there have been no defects Department Family Children's

0:33:11.080 --> 0:33:16.360
<v Speaker 1>Services follow through on her daughter Harmony. Isn't that right, Jackie? Okay,

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:20.200
<v Speaker 1>so take a listen. However, to our cut seventeen Mike

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:24.560
<v Speaker 1>cronin News nine, Manchester Police confirmed to News nine that

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:28.200
<v Speaker 1>investigators were searching a property on Guilford Street in Manchester

0:33:28.360 --> 0:33:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Sunday in connection to the search for missing seven year

0:33:31.160 --> 0:33:35.320
<v Speaker 1>old Harmony Montgomery. Also new Sunday. Mayor Joyce Craig's office

0:33:35.360 --> 0:33:37.959
<v Speaker 1>says it received an email last week with a concern

0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:41.080
<v Speaker 1>about Harmony that was primarily about issues with a follow

0:33:41.200 --> 0:33:44.520
<v Speaker 1>up from DCYF. According to the Mayor's office, they told

0:33:44.560 --> 0:33:46.719
<v Speaker 1>that person if they felt the child was in danger,

0:33:46.800 --> 0:33:49.640
<v Speaker 1>to immediately call nine one one or give them further

0:33:49.760 --> 0:33:52.800
<v Speaker 1>information so they could let police know, the mayor's office

0:33:52.840 --> 0:33:57.160
<v Speaker 1>says that person never responded back. So I guess, mommy,

0:33:57.280 --> 0:33:59.960
<v Speaker 1>if she did make the first emails in the first email,

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:04.280
<v Speaker 1>that she just got busy and didn't respond to the

0:34:04.400 --> 0:34:07.880
<v Speaker 1>mayor's office when they asked her to respond back. Okay,

0:34:08.800 --> 0:34:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Straight back out to Blair Miller, the adoptive dad of Jamison,

0:34:13.800 --> 0:34:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Harmony's little brother. He is an anchor and reporter with

0:34:17.480 --> 0:34:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Cox News. Blair, I've got a feeling that they have

0:34:22.680 --> 0:34:27.120
<v Speaker 1>located the bio dad and they still can't find Harmony.

0:34:27.239 --> 0:34:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Do you have any indication that is or is not true.

0:34:30.160 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, we've been told a lot of things Mance

0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:34.840
<v Speaker 1>in and so you know, as far as anything official,

0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:38.920
<v Speaker 1>we don't know, but we've certainly been told that's possible,

0:34:40.120 --> 0:34:43.239
<v Speaker 1>and so we're trying to be respectful that. At the

0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:45.120
<v Speaker 1>same time, you know, the only thing we're focused on

0:34:45.200 --> 0:34:47.400
<v Speaker 1>right now, which is why I'm here today, is you know,

0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:50.360
<v Speaker 1>finding Harmony and getting her back and so I can

0:34:50.400 --> 0:34:54.320
<v Speaker 1>figure out what we tell our son. You're right, You're right, Blair.

0:34:54.560 --> 0:34:57.520
<v Speaker 1>So to you. Robert Crispin, former law enforcement now private

0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:03.239
<v Speaker 1>investigator with Crispin's Special investig dot Com. What should we

0:35:03.680 --> 0:35:08.440
<v Speaker 1>the public be doing now to help find Harmony. Thinking

0:35:08.520 --> 0:35:11.480
<v Speaker 1>back the last two years, what you know, what you remember,

0:35:11.840 --> 0:35:15.360
<v Speaker 1>and report it, put it out there, get it to

0:35:15.440 --> 0:35:20.600
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement. Take a look at this little girl, Harmony Montgomery.

0:35:20.800 --> 0:35:24.280
<v Speaker 1>The photos you're seeing are of her at age five.

0:35:24.920 --> 0:35:30.520
<v Speaker 1>She is now seven, about four feet tall. She's legally

0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:36.080
<v Speaker 1>blind in her right eye, she's wearing glasses. She's about

0:35:36.080 --> 0:35:42.239
<v Speaker 1>fifty pounds, and she's got a beautiful, beautiful smile. And

0:35:42.280 --> 0:35:45.440
<v Speaker 1>when you look at that smile, you'd never know she's

0:35:45.480 --> 0:35:50.200
<v Speaker 1>been bouncing from one foster home to the next. Where

0:35:50.800 --> 0:35:57.919
<v Speaker 1>is this girl? Help us? Nancy Grace Crumbs story signing off,

0:35:58.600 --> 0:36:04.640
<v Speaker 1>goodbye friend,
