Role in Case(s)
Duncan was first mentioned when the team found a sculpture which read, "The Huckabees will forever be the sworn enemies of the McCoys". Alex said that the carving was made by Duncan. Alex then did a quick name research and found out that Duncan was the Pilgrim ship's carpenter. Alex further said that he had no idea why Duncan hated the Huckabee family so much. And the worst thing was that the family feud between the McCoys and the Huckabees was still going on. Since the family feud was still going between the McCoys and the Huckabees, the team decided to talk to Duncan's descendant, Chris. Chris was a prime suspect since he hated Stuart and all the Huckabees, and he was also happy about the fact that Stuart lived no more.

Afterwards, the team found an ancient parchment, which revealed that Duncan was put in trial by Reginald Huckabee for cannibalism, sentencing the whole McCoy family to a life of poverty. The team needed more answers and thus decided to speak to Chris again. Chris got angry when the team spoke to him about this since the whole city now knew about this incident because of Stuart Huckabee. Chris told the team that it was freezing cold back in 1642 and people were dying of hunger. It was eat or die and all Duncan wanted was try to survive. Officer Jones asked Chris if Duncan ate a child, and Chris angrily replied and said that Duncan ate an old man who was going to die anyway.
