MANCHESTER,N.H.- Adam Montgomery’s sentence on weapons charges will remain in place according to a decision from a sentence review board.

According to court documents the charges were affirmed on October 19, after Montgomery requested the review in June and was approved in July.

The decision is the latest development in Montgomery’s case, that’s after the New Hampshire Supreme Court ruled in June that he should have been tried separately on assault charges and second-degree murder charges in connection with the death of his daughter, Harmony Montgomery, 5, who authorities believe was killed in December of 2019.

Montgomery was transferred back to a New Hampshire from a Virginia prison over the summer after the state Supreme Court reversed the second-degree murder charge against him.

As the state prepares to retire its case against Montgomery, Jury selection is slated to get underway in October of 2027.
