How about a Harmony's law where deadbeat parents can't go after custody just so they can get benefits from the state

I LOVE that idea!! ❤

[@garylee12345]

Even more probable is to evade paying child support !! I'm convinced this was the main reason he wanted custody !! He then would not have to pay support then eventually go to jail for being delinquent

[@ShanieCakesss]

Or holding judges responsible when they make decisions that in turn end up like this

[@lindaaitken7679]

I find it incredible that witnesses can be treated like this, and yet the person accused of murdering a child is allowed to not even turn up to his own trial.

As Adam's friend, she likely believed his lies and didn't have any suspicion that he had killed his daughter.

0:47 The smile she gave when he asked about her addiction and said she was 10 months clean today was adorable. Good for her. I wonder if she was his sponsor in that sober program that they were in together, and if she just fell off the wagon again (because she’s only been clean for 10 months this time, so I’m assuming she has had her struggles). Can’t judge her for falling off the wagon, especially after finding out her former best friend was a monster. ETA: 13:31 “You have 11 criminal charges….” “Probably, I was a drug addict.” 😂 She knew right away what he was trying to imply, that she’s a liar because she’s a “criminal” but she denied none of it. I guess when you have a client like Montgomery, you will go as low as the courts will allow because he has no other defense except her character. Clearly, she knows her flaws and isn’t afraid to say them. Didn’t hurt her credibility imho, shows his client has no real defense. Hope the jury feels the same. 17:17 “You’re facing 3 separate charges…..” “Actually, there’s a fourth.” 😂😂😂 She got him there, shows she has nothing to hide about her past.

I don’t know if THIS particular witness knows it but because she is willing to be SO brutally honest & open about her history, she has a far greater chance of actually making something out of her life when she gets out regardless of how people like this defense try to paint her as less than her worth and I pray she KICKS ASS and shows anyone who doubts her just exactly what she CAN do!!!!

Why didn't they just buy her pull-ups??? My special needs grandson was 7yrs old before he stopped peeing himself and the bed.He had an accident last night as matter of fact .I have a mattress cover and put pull ups on him .Sometimes they need extra help .God I wish he had given me that baby .I would have loved her and cared for her .There was no sense in what that person did to that poor baby

[@Suzanne2909]

She was potty trained before going to live with Adam, it was because of fear and anxiety Harmony wet herself.

[@richerDiLefto]

They didn’t want to spend the money on them.

[@jenniferspence7092]

Right! My son will be 12 at the end of July and he JUST stopped wetting the bed after Christmas. He wet it every single night pretty near and at times I wouldn't buy goodnites if I didn't have the money but for the most part I was able to afford them. But for the times I couldn't he has a mattress protector and I also got 2 great big incontinence pads for his mattress. He also started randomly peeing his pants in class sometimes during November and December. Plus he has suffered from chronic constipation since he was about 4 or 5 which contributes to the pee accidents and those ones he basically didn't even realize he peed himself. And we've had times when he was on relaxa for a year at a time or longer stretches where he would have 6 or so poop accidents a day. Was it frustrating? Heck yeah. Did he get punished? NO!! I felt super frustrated at times and hopeless thinking he would never grow out of it. Plus constantly being judged by relatives thinking I was too lazy to bother potty training him properly. They also didn't take into account that he has severe adhd and mild autism to boot. But I just did my best to act like it was fine and accepted that I would be doing extra laundry until he finally grew out of it. He never got spanked or yelled at. The last thing I wanted was for him to feel embarrassed. And it's funny I finally bought a $200 bedwetting alarm just before Christmas to see if that would finally help him and couldn't get it to work while I was testing it so had to order more batteries and play with it and by the time I finally got it to work he stopped on his own so that was awesome timing I got my money back lol. But yeah I thought the other day too why didn't they have her in pull-ups in the car if she was having accidents because for one she would be so confused about when to say she had to go with them literally not having a bathroom and when kids do let you know they have to go to the bathroom they usually can't hold it long so accidents are inevitable sometimes. And she also had to have been terrified to tell them she needed to go anyways. I know I would have been. I had an abusive dad and I avoided him most times because he would fly off the handle with no warning. I do agree with someone else's comment though. There's no way they would put any money towards pull-ups because it would be less to buy drugs with. Maybe they would have if he didn't hate her so much.

I appreciate this lady’s being open about her criminal past, And when the defense attorney kept asking her about it and asked if she wanted to see her charges etc. She said in a snarky way what difference does it make? And not answer her other possible charges. Defense attorney is legit is trying to throw dirt on her. As if she’s the one on trial. 😮

[@kimberliepopovich5960]

I so appreciate her honesty. She was so forthcoming about her history and she is not on trial so why are you treating her like she the murderer. There was no reason she should have been bullied like this. I think this is why more people don't want to come forward to help someone. You handled it so responsibly. Thank you for your honesty. The defense is disgusting. Why would the judge allow this??? It really angers me.

[@autumnnelson1809]

This lady is a badass like she was a bad person trying to right her wrongs but she’s not a killer and isn’t going to protect a killer and they go saying she’s not credible because she a criminal but is the defendant abs we both knows. I love she is humble to embrace her awful past and ready to make a good life and is not here to let anyone use her past against her because she knows the work she did to be the person she is today. Love to see she crush the defense. Best witness in this case hands down.

Adam told Harmony to keep the baby quiet, she was five years old, trying to do that. The baby was just over a year, almost as big as her.

[@catherineseiler7407]

She didn’t want the baby to cry because Adam would have blamed her and he would have gave it her, poor Harmony, rest in peace little one

IF that even happened. It was probably a lie he told as an excuse for beating the hell out of her.

[@user-gq4tw3rm2q]

Or simply trying to keep the baby quiet because she's so afraid of her father.

[@lorimiller4301]

How can you blame a child for the situations you yourself put her in ? He and Kayla are insane. They just wanted a scapegoat to take their frustration out on. That baby suffered so much. She was trying to keep the baby quiet. I would bet money Adam did that to her at some point when she was crying. She was constantly terrified of what was going to happen next. She died scared and alone.

[@Hopesbrizze]

He hated his daughter right to the core. Wow. He killed her and beat her and took out his angry frustration. Drug withdrawal on her. That poor baby. I know she resting in heaven with no memory of the violence she endured. Thank God for life after death.
