Harmony Montgomery’s stepmother took the stand on Friday, describing the “evil crazy eyes look” on her estranged husband’s face when she tried to stop him from hitting his 5-year-old daughter for having a bathroom accident in the car.
“I couldn't stop him from hitting her. The look he gave me was scary. I was scared,” Kayla Montgomery told Hillsborough County Superior Court jurors on Friday about the December 2019 incident. “He said, ‘I think I really hurt her. I felt something.’”
Kayla said the abuse had started early that morning and continued after she and her estranged husband, Adam Montgomery, went to a methadone clinic and headed to Burger King. Each time the family stopped at a red light, she said, Montgomery would go between the seats and punch his daughter in the head.
