Adam Montgomery's Murder Conviction in Harmony's Death OVERTURNED, a "Spellcaster" Trial in Maya Millete's Disappearance, a Soldier's Bride
Garret Fisher covers three cases. In New Hampshire, the state Supreme Court has reversed Adam Montgomery's second-degree murder conviction in the death of his 5-year-old daughter, Harmony Montgomery, ruling the trial judge improperly joined the murder charge with a separate assault charge — a procedural reversal, not a finding of innocence. Montgomery remains incarcerated on his other convictions (second-degree assault, abuse of a corpse, falsifying evidence, witness tampering) plus prior weapons charges, and the state may retry him. In San Diego, Larry Millete, 44, is on trial for the first-degree murder of his wife, Maya Millete, 39, who vanished in January 2021 and has never been found; jurors are hearing about hundreds of pages of messages prosecutors say he sent to online "spellcasters" to control her. He has pleaded not guilty. And in Anchorage, Army soldier Zarrius Hildabrand, 24, is on trial in the death of his bride, Saria Barney, whose body was found hidden in a drainpipe behind their apartment; her mother testified about his behavior in the days after Saria vanished. He has pleaded not guilty, and the trial resumes today.

Caalaroga Shark Media.
2
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:14.519
Good morning, you're listening to Daily Crime and Justice. I'm
3
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:18.320
Garrett Fisher and it is Monday, June fifteenth, twenty twenty six.
4
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:19.960
Three cases today.
5
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.719
First, the New Hampshire Supreme Court has reversed Adam Montgomery's
6
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:27.440
second degree murder conviction in the death of his five
7
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:31.480
year old daughter, Harmony Montgomery, ruling the trial judge wrongly
8
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:35.039
combined that charge with a separate assault charge. He remains
9
00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:38.880
in prison on his other convictions. Second, in San Diego,
10
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:41.600
Larry Molette is on trial for the first degree murder
11
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:44.280
of his wife, Maya, who vanished in twenty twenty one
12
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:47.359
and has never been found, and jurors are hearing about
13
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.359
hundreds of pages of messages he allegedly sent to online spellcasters.
14
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:57.920
He has pleaded not guilty. Third, in Anchorage, Alaska, Army
15
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.920
soldier Zarius Hildebrand is on try in the death of
16
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.280
his bride, Sarah Barney, whose body was found hidden in
17
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.319
a drain pipe. He is pleaded not guilty and his
18
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:12.200
trial resumes today.
19
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:14.480
Here's where I want to start.
20
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:17.040
Two and a half years ago, a jury in New
21
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:20.519
Hampshire listened to weeks of testimony and decided that Adam
22
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:26.040
Montgomery murdered his own daughter, Harmony, five years old, a
23
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:28.799
little girl with one good eye and a smile you've
24
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:31.799
probably seen if you followed this case at all, because
25
00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:34.640
her face became the face of every kid who falls
26
00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.840
through the cracks. She disappeared in twenty nineteen. Nobody reported
27
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:42.239
her missing until twenty twenty one. Think about that gap
28
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.439
two years where a child simply stopped existing in the
29
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:47.920
world and almost no one with the power to do
30
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:52.079
anything noticed. A jury heard all of it and convicted him,
31
00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:55.040
and last week the New Hampshire Supreme Court took that
32
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:59.400
murder conviction and threw it out. Now before anybody panics,
33
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:02.519
Adam Montgomery is not walking out of a prison today,
34
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:06.680
not even close. But the headline is real and it matters,
35
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.199
and we're going to walk through exactly what happened and why,
36
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:13.159
because this is one of those rulings that sounds like
37
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:16.439
an injustice until you understand it, and then it sounds
38
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:20.319
like something else, a system being careful, even when being
39
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:24.759
careful feels unbearable. We've got two more after that, a
40
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:28.000
murder trial in San Diego that called actual spellcasters to
41
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:32.680
the witness stand and no, I'm not exaggerating. And a
42
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:35.479
soldier in Alaska whose new wife turned up in a
43
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:38.199
drain pipe on trial right now with her mother on
44
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:41.439
the stand describing the days her daughter vanished. That one
45
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:48.719
resumes in a courtroom today. Let's get into it. Let
46
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:51.199
me give you the shape of this case first, because
47
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:53.360
most of you are meeting it here for the first time,
48
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:56.360
and you need the whole picture before the legal part
49
00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:00.159
makes sense. Harmony Montgomery was born to two parents who
50
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:03.319
could not take care of her. Her mother, Crystal Sorry,
51
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:07.319
lost custody because of substance abuse, her words, the court's
52
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:11.080
record not a smear, and custody went to Harmony's father,
53
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.919
Adam Montgomery. That's the decision that set everything in motion.
54
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:18.159
A little girl handed to a man who the evidence
55
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:21.360
would later show, did not see her as someone to protect.
56
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:26.080
She disappeared in twenty nineteen. She was not reported missing
57
00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:29.719
until twenty twenty one, when Crystal Sory, who had spent
58
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:33.240
months trying and failing to reach her daughter, finally raised
59
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:37.719
the alarm. By then, Harmony was long gone. In twenty
60
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:41.400
twenty four, a jury convicted Adam Montgomery of five things,
61
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:46.840
second degree murder, second degree assault, falsifying physical evidence, witness tampering,
62
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:51.319
and abuse of a corpse. At trial, he admitted admitted
63
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:55.479
to helping dispose of his daughter's body. His defense was
64
00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:58.639
that his wife at the time, Kayla Montgomery, was the
65
00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:02.240
one who actually killed Harmony, and that he only helped
66
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:06.319
cover it up. Caylea testified against him. Her account was
67
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:08.960
the only direct evidence that Adam was the one who
68
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:12.680
delivered the fatal blows. Hold on to that, because it's
69
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:16.279
the whole ballgame. Here's what the New Hampshire Supreme Court did.
70
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:20.600
In a unanimous opinion written by Justice Brian Gould, the
71
00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:23.639
court ruled that the trial judge made a legal error
72
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:27.160
by joining combining the murder charge with a second degree
73
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.879
assault charge in the same trial. That assault charge came
74
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:34.439
from a separate incident in July of twenty nineteen, when
75
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:38.040
Adam Montgomery's own uncle reported seeing Harmony with a black eye.
76
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:41.079
And here is the part that I think is actually
77
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:43.920
the heart of it. The court looked at the evidence
78
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:48.079
behind each charge and found they were wildly unequal. On
79
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:51.800
the July assault, prosecutors had three witnesses who saw the
80
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:55.560
black eye and four witnesses who said Adam Montgomery admitted
81
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:59.879
hitting her. Seven people on the murder itself. One win
82
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:05.319
fitness Kayla, her testimony, and DNA and fingerprint evidence that
83
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:08.240
backed up what happened to Harmony's body after she was
84
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.600
already dead. The court's reasoning, and I'm going to paraphrase
85
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:15.680
Justice Gooled closely here. The physical evidence supported Kayla's account
86
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:17.959
of what Adam did with the body after the killing.
87
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:21.240
It did not corroborate her claim that he caused the
88
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.160
death by punching his daughter in the head, and it
89
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.399
wasn't inconsistent with his defense that Kayla did it and
90
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:28.319
he helped hide it.
91
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.439
So the worry legally is this.
92
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:34.959
You put a mountain of evidence about a July black
93
00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:37.519
eye in front of a jury right next to a
94
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.800
much thinner case about a December killing, and the danger
95
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:43.600
is that the jury convicts on the murder because they're
96
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:47.879
furious about the assault. The strong case contaminates the weak one.
97
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:50.519
The court said that risk was real and it was
98
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:53.959
enough to reverse. Look, I'm going to be honest with you.
99
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.160
The first time you read murder conviction overturned in a
100
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.920
case about a dead five year old, your stomach drop
101
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.600
mine did But this is not a court saying Adam
102
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:07.199
Montgomery didn't kill Harmony. This is a court saying the
103
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:10.279
trial that convicted him of it was run improperly. And
104
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:12.839
a man does not lose his liberty on a flawed trial,
105
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:17.120
not even this man. That principle has to apply to everybody,
106
00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:21.360
or it protects nobody. And here's the thing that should
107
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:25.040
bring your blood pressure back down. The court left every
108
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:28.839
other conviction in place, the assault, the abuse of a corpse,
109
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:33.759
the falsifying of evidence, the witness tampering his own attorney
110
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:36.800
conceded guilt on the lesser charges in her opening statement.
111
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:38.079
Those stand.
112
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:42.079
He is also serving time on prior weapons convictions. Adam
113
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:46.120
Montgomery remains behind bars. The state can decide whether to
114
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:49.839
retry him on the murder charge. One more thing happened
115
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.199
just this past week, and it deserves to be said
116
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:55.040
out loud. A New Hampshire judge ruled in favor of
117
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:58.439
Crystal Story in the wrongful death lawsuit she brought against
118
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:02.680
Adam Montgomery. The criminal and civil systems run on different tracks,
119
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.920
with different burdens of proof, and on the civil track,
120
00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:08.759
Harmony's mother got a measure of what the criminal tract
121
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:12.480
just complicated. Nobody was paying attention to her for two years.
122
00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:15.399
That's the part I can't put down. A court can
123
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:29.959
reverse a verdict, it cannot reverse those two years. All right,
124
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:33.600
San Diego, And I promise you I am not making
125
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:36.920
this up. Larry Molett is forty four years old and
126
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:39.600
he is pleaded not guilty to first degree murder in
127
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:42.879
the death of his wife, Maya Milette. And I want
128
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:45.360
to be clear at the top, because he's entitled to it.
129
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.800
He is presumed innocent. He has denied this, and what
130
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:52.600
I'm about to describe is the prosecution's case tested by
131
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:56.240
his defense in a courtroom. Maya's body has never been found.
132
00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:59.120
Maya Millette was thirty nine years old when she was
133
00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:03.800
last seen on January seventh, twenty twenty one, in Chula Vista, California.
134
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:05.959
By the accounts of the people who loved her, she
135
00:08:06.079 --> 00:08:08.959
was a woman trying to leave her sister, Mary Chris
136
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:11.839
Drouaille told Court TV that Maya had said she wanted
137
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:14.920
a divorce and said something that lands like a stone
138
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:18.360
once you know how this ended. If anything happens to me,
139
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:23.399
look at my husband. She was afraid for herself and
140
00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:27.600
for her kids. Now to the trial. A judge has
141
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:30.560
barred cameras from inside the courtroom, so what we know
142
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:34.360
comes from reporters in the room, and what they've described
143
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:38.440
is frankly one of the strangest evidentiary records I've come across.
144
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:40.399
Jurors were shown more.
145
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:43.480
Than five hundred pages of text messages that prosecutors say
146
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:47.799
Larry Millet exchanged with an online spellcaster, a man named
147
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:51.799
Frank Peavey who operated under the names Mystic Lunar and Tess.
148
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:57.120
Five hundred pages in the weeks before Maya disappeared. Prosecutors
149
00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:01.080
say Larry was sending this spellcaster rick requests that his
150
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:04.879
wife would want sex with him constantly, that and I'm
151
00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:08.639
paraphrasing his alleged words, she would get sick and stay
152
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:11.240
sick until she realized how much she loved him and
153
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:15.000
needed him. That everyone would be banished from her life
154
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:20.240
except family. The spellcaster himself testified he described the man
155
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.000
behind those messages as someone who wanted total control, the
156
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.879
victim's full attention, instant gratification. And here's a detail that
157
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:34.080
tells you something. Peeve eventually blocked Larry Millet. The spellcaster,
158
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:36.960
the guy selling love hexes on the internet. Found the
159
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:40.759
volume of these messages too much to deal with. Prosecutors
160
00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:43.879
go further. They alleged Larry didn't stop at love spells.
161
00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:47.240
They say he hired spellcasters to try to hex harm
162
00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:51.600
or incapacitate his wife so she'd be more dependent on him.
163
00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:55.159
When the spells didn't work, Prosecutors say he didn't turn
164
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:57.720
inward and ask what was wrong with him. He got
165
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:01.519
frustrated that the magic wasn't delivering his wife. And then
166
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:04.559
there's the part that doesn't need any mysticism at all.
167
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:09.840
The ordinary chilling digital trail. Prosecutors presented online searches they
168
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:12.919
tied to Larry through an anonymous email account created in
169
00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:16.360
March of twenty twenty, among them, how much space does
170
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:18.600
my wife need? How can you tell if your wife
171
00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:22.519
had sex with another guy? Hypnotize while you sleep, losing
172
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:25.240
my wife? And two that I'll just let sit there,
173
00:10:25.600 --> 00:10:28.799
shot in the heart, instant death and wife doesn't want
174
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:29.759
to be intimate anymore.
175
00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:30.879
There's more.
176
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:35.759
Maya's coworkers testified that after she vanished, someone got into
177
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:39.120
their private Facebook group chat and started replying as Maya.
178
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:43.759
One message dropped the act entirely. It read Christine, this
179
00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:46.440
is Larry. I know you're a great friend to Maya.
180
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.519
I know I haven't been the best husband, but I'm trying.
181
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.720
Please help us keep our family together. Christine Timmers, the coworker,
182
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:57.519
testified that the group kept wondering whether the message is
183
00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:01.120
coming from Maya's account, were really Larry. On the last
184
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:04.639
day Maya was seen alive, Timers said Maya told her
185
00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:07.440
she'd argued with Larry that he wanted one hundred percent
186
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.240
custody of their children, that he wanted the house, and
187
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:13.519
that Maya told him he'd have to buy her out.
188
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:17.879
I'll note in fairness that on cross examination, Timer said
189
00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:21.679
she had never personally seen Larry behave violently. And then
190
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.600
the moment that broke the courtroom open. Maya's father, Pablito Tablanza,
191
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:30.639
testified that Larry once told him at a family party, Papa,
192
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.960
I have a gun. I want to kill someone. And
193
00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:37.720
on the stand the grief took over. This father stood up,
194
00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:41.519
accused the defendant of killing his daughter, and then collapsed
195
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:44.000
back into his chair with his hands over his eyes.
196
00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:46.879
The judge had to call a recess so the room
197
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:50.759
could pull itself together. Here's my honest read, and I'll
198
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:53.799
keep it to what the evidence is pointing at because
199
00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:57.960
a jury hasn't spoken yet. Strip away the spellcasters and
200
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:01.279
the hexes and the mysticism, and what the prosecution is
201
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:04.720
describing is the oldest story. There is a man who
202
00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:07.759
could not stand that a woman wanted to leave. The
203
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:10.799
spells aren't the bizarre part. The spells are just the
204
00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:16.039
wrapping paper. The thing underneath is control. There's a playbook
205
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:18.559
for this, and the magic words don't change the chapter
206
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:33.360
you're reading last story today, and the trial we're about
207
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:36.759
to talk about resumes in an Anchorage, Alaska courtroom today,
208
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.759
So this one's live. Zarius Hildebrand is twenty four years old.
209
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.360
He's charged with first degree murder, second degree murder, and
210
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.039
tampering with physical evidence in the death of his wife,
211
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:51.879
Saria Barney. He is pleaded not guilty and he is
212
00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:55.120
presumed innocent, and I'm going to hold that line carefully
213
00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:57.919
as I lay this out, because the facts here are heavy.
214
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.919
Start with Whosaria was, because she gets named first in
215
00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.679
this house. Saria Barney enlisted in the National Guard to
216
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:09.600
become a combat medic, someone whose whole training was about
217
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:13.840
keeping other people alive. She met Zarius Hildebrand in boot camp.
218
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:16.679
He was army. They knew each other less than a
219
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:19.480
year before they married. She died less than eight months
220
00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:23.519
after the wedding. Here's the night it happened. August fifth,
221
00:13:23.720 --> 00:13:28.840
twenty twenty three. It was Hildebrand's twenty first birthday. He, Saria,
222
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:31.639
and a group of friends went out to celebrate. They
223
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:34.639
hit a dave in Busters, then tried to get into
224
00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:37.600
a club, and a bouncer turned Hildebrand away because he
225
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:39.000
seemed too intoxicated.
226
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:40.720
The group split up.
227
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:43.759
Hildebrand and Saria got in an uber to head home,
228
00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:46.919
and that ride home is the last time anyone saw
229
00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:50.720
Saria Barney alive. The two sides tell you opposite stories
230
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:53.960
about what happened after that door closed. Prosecutors say that
231
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:56.879
once they were home, Saria found evidence her husband had
232
00:13:56.879 --> 00:13:59.759
been sending photos to other women on social media, even
233
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:03.720
offer to fly them out. Investigators say Hildebrand shot her.
234
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.320
The defense says something very different, that he went to sleep,
235
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:09.559
woke up and found that his wife had taken her
236
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:12.759
own life, and that what he did afterward he did
237
00:14:12.840 --> 00:14:16.759
out of fear and panic. His attorney, Lacy Jane Brewster
238
00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:20.159
told the jury her client made poor choices but did
239
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:23.200
not kill his wife. I'm going to handle that defense
240
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:25.759
theory with the care it deserves, and I'm not going
241
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:26.919
to dwell on it graphically.
242
00:14:27.200 --> 00:14:28.799
It's a claim the jury will weigh.
1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:04.519
2
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:14.519

00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.719
