How the system failed missing children Harmony Montgomery & Oakley Carlson True Crime Society

- True Crime
Harmony Montgomery and Oakley Carlson lived on opposite sides of the country. They never met each other and neither had the chance to even live their own lives.
Both Harmony and Oakley vanished while in the care of their parents - the very people who were meant to nurture, care and protect them.
Harmony was last known to be alive in 2019. She would be 7 years old if she is alive today. Harmony’s early years were sad - both her parents had drug abuse issues and Harmony had been in foster homes. She was eventually returned to the custody of her father Adam, and that decision sealed her fate.
It finally came to light in 2021 that Harmony had not been seen for years. Her biological mother has just now been speaking publicly and insists she has been trying to find Harmony. Police have been searching the last locations in New Hampshire that Harmony was known to be at and nothing has been found. Adam has now been arrested on charges related to the abuse and neglect of Harmony.
Oakley Carlson also had a rough start to life. She had been placed with a foster family when she was a baby and she lived with them for years. The foster family have said publicly that they were devastated when Oakley was returned to the care of her biological parents.
Her foster mother Jamie said “They made a mistake. “A big mistake. I told them in my last letter it was going to be on their shoulders if something happens to her.”
A school principal raised the alarm about not seeing Oakley in December 2021. Police began to investigate and discovered that Oakley had not been seen since February 2021.
Oakley’s parents Andrew Carlson and Jordan Bowers have been investigated and they have since been charged with apparently withholding potentially life saving medication from one of Oakley’s siblings.
As of mid January 2022, there is no sign of either Harmony or Oakley.
