Jury chosen as Adam Montgomery trial on gun theft charges begins

MANCHESTER, N.H. — In Hillsboro Superior Court North in Manchester, New Hampshire, 100 potential jurors get their first look at the man who has dominated headlines and news coverage for months.

Adam Montgomery is now on trial for charges related to two-gun thefts, a rifle, and a shotgun, in September and October 2019.

But Montgomery is widely known as the father of his missing daughter, Harmony Montgomery, last seen in December 2019.

Jury selection wraps up in weapons trial for Adam Montgomery

[...]

The jury pool was whittled down in about four hours to a panel of 21. Both sides used preemptory challenges to strike six jurors, leaving 15 – 11 women and four men. Three are alternates.

"Avoid any all media coverage," Messer told jurors. "That includes social media coverage of this case or the related Harmony Montgomery case I discussed."

Opening statements are scheduled for 9 a.m. on Thursday. Jurors are not sequestered but have been ordered not to listen to, read or research anything about the case or Adam Montgomery.

Opening Statements have concluded.

The Prosecution maintains that Adam obtained, maintained, and disposed of the shotgun and a rifle. Kayla initially lied, was charged and convicted of perjury, and will now testify truthfully against Adam.

The Defense immediately named Ishmael Garcia as the perpetrator and contends that Adam merely helped “Ish” market the guns, Adam did not steal the guns, maintain the guns, or control the guns.
