According to the application document, “Review of the sentence may result in a decrease or increase of the minimum or maximum term within the limits fixed by law, or there may be no change in the sentence.”

Investigators believe Harmony was killed in December 2019, nearly two years before she was reported missing in 2021. Kayla Montgomery, the girl’s stepmother, testified that the girl’s body was hidden in the trunk of a car, a cooler, a ceiling vent, and a workplace freezer before Adam disposed of it.
Her body has never been found.
