Harmony Montgomery, five, was last seen in the fall of 2019, but authorities only started searching for her two years later. Now, her father Adam Montgomery is finally standing trial for her murder. Rachel Sharp and Andrea Blanco report

Testimony on the seventh day of Adam Montgomery’s murder trial followed the movements of the CMC bag prosecutors say contained his slain daughter’s remains as it moved from a family shelter to a walk-in cooler at now defunct downtown restaurant, to a Union Street apartment and then to the EconoLodge.
