If you click through to the local who posted the pic shared by the reporter, he has a more updated pic that shows the tarp removed and snow is gone. Green grass covered with black cables.

Thank you! Possibly an indication that they may be able to start digging soon....

The linked article is behind a paywall but I believe there's been a lot of confusion with regard to Kevin Montgomery being addressed as Harmony's "uncle". When in fact he's Adam's uncle.

I believe he quoted himself as Harmony's uncle in an original tweet, but this has since been corrected. Obviously, this media outlet didn't get the memo!

That would make KM Harmony's great uncle.

Hi there-- do you have a link for Adam's brother talking about the case ??
I see above the articles pertaining to his Uncle and neighbors and Maternal grandpa but haven't see anything from a sibling of Adam yet.
TIA

Do they just cut off the power even if there are children living in the house?

We had this happen when I was a child. However.. that may be different in 2020-now with Covid but I'm not sure..

If the house was supposed to be vacant, I don't think there would be any basis for the utility provider to continue providing services -- with or without squatters present. As for interruption of services during COVID, most utility providers were under a moratorium until Sept 2021 where they could not shut off services for non=payment.

Utility shutoff notices begin going out to Granite Staters

Is that insulation they have removed from inside the house, sure looks like it from this photo. That doesn't look good for little Harmony. Remember that AM lived there alone after KM left with the three kids. That is what KM's mother said when she gave her impromptu interview with the media outside of her house after her daughter's arraignment.

Mother of Harmony Montgomery says she 'never stopped' looking for missing daughter (nbcnews.com)
The mother of missing 7-year-old Harmony Montgomery made her first public comments at a vigil Saturday night, saying she "never stopped" looking for answers about her daughter's disappearance.

Crystal Sorey told NBC Boston at the vigil in Manchester, New Hampshire, that she has been "begging for any type of answer" since she last spoke to her daughter nearly three years ago. Harmony’s father, Adam Montgomery, who had legal custody at the time of her disappearance, blocked all contact between the mother and daughter after a video call in April 2019, according to Sorey.

The Heavy article I linked and the arrest documents for Adam. I see many earlybirds have posted other links. Thank you!

Yes, and I don't know much about insulation but it looks new which has me wondering if it was removed from the house or if LE brought it with them? Is that what it looks like when removed? MOO

<modsnip: Quoted post was removed>

That's a lot of insulation. They must be cutting through the walls or ceiling or floors. They either have a tip or their equipment has hit on something. They wouldn't be able to tear apart the house unless they had probable cause they would find something and had a search warrant. It doesn't look like the insulation is evidence, since they are just piling it up in the police truck with no attempt to secure it as evidence. This is hard to watch. Prayers for Harmony and little J who at such a young age turned out to be the one that cared for Harmony the most and brought us to this point. He is the impetus for this search for Harmony, through the response of the Millers, and their encouragement of CS. Everyone had given up, except for this little boy.

Yes, it looks the same when new as it does when removed, unless it got wet and gets moldy. We had to remove the insulation in our garage ceiling early this fall due to leak above the garage roof, and thank goodness it didn't get very wet, but we removed much of the insulation just in case. Sometimes the new insulation is prepared so that it doesn't fold over so easily, makes it easier to install, but if you don't want to pay extra for this, you can get new insulation that looks just like this.

Somehow I thought the insulation and tarps both were for the backyard, and were removed this morning.

What had me thinking along the same lines was that we haven't seen any drywall removed. But, I don't recall ever seeing LE bring insulation to a search like this one. MOO

Good point, I hadn't thought about the drywall not being removed. Why would police bring insulation to the property? Handling insulation is not good for your health, you have to wear goggles and a mask, so you don't breathe in the fibreglass in the insulation. Even your hands get small particles and you need to wear gloves when handling it, or you end up very itching from the tiny fibreglass particles.

That was my impression as well. The insulation looking things were used in the backyard to heat up and melt the snow. You can see them lying on the ground in one of the pictures. MOO

 

[Turkeytrot]

I was thinking maybe attic insulation? Not sure if there's a pulldown attic like that but it's not listed on the home listing. The listing does say there's an unfinished walk-out basement area though.

 

[Myra123]

In my weakest moment s I feel Harmony is alive but then if a drifter had her she would have been turned over for the reward money. I pray for this sweet child to be recovered and/or located. Turn the heat up on Am and Km.
Prayers from tx sweet Harmony
