The search for Harmony Montgomery, who has not been seen since 2019, continues as the welfare fraud case against the child's stepmother, Kayla Montgomery, plays out in court.
For the first time, we're learning the State of New Hampshire has offered Kayla Montgomery a plea, but Defense Attorney Paul Garrity says they aren't even close to striking a deal. "Kayla maintains her not guilty plea at this point in time," he told NBC10 Boston after the court appearance on Thursday.
Prosecutor Jesse O'Neill says the state has turned over its evidence to Garrity, who says the plea offer is"extraordinarily high."
