What a sad story of Harmony’s short life & ill treatment by her own family. Definitely well researched. Makes one wonder about Adam’s own childhood that would produce such anger & hateful treatment towards other people. Be safe!

There's a subsequent article coming tomorrow about how Harmony was failed by social services in both MA and NH.

Adam was supposedly largely raised by his grandparents. His mother was fifteen when he was born and his father, Michael, was sixteen years old. His mother's name is unknown, but both his mother and Michael were reportedly addicts, and his mother reportedly had a history of prostitution. Michael had a violent criminal history, including robbing a McDonald’s in Revere, MA with a toy gun, for which he went to prison. Michael actually died earlier this week, 4 days before his son was found guilty, allegedly of a drug overdose.

Adam himself had an extensive juvenile record from what is known; court proceedings revealed convictions for theft, assault, firearms, and drugs across both New Hampshire and Massachusetts, beginning in the early 2000s. He was arrested at 18 for robbery and at 24, he shot a drug dealer in the face but didn't kill him and received a short sentence.
