Serial killer Joseph Edward Duncan III, who was facing execution after being convicted for the 2005 kidnapping and killing of Dylan Groene, a 9-year-old Idaho boy, died Sunday morning, according to a news release from the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Idaho.
Duncan, 58, had been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer before his death. In May 2005, Duncan murdered Brenda Groene, the boy's mother; Slade Groene, the boy's teenage brother; and Mark McKenzie, the mother's boyfriend at their home just outside Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, before kidnapping the boy and his 8-year-old sister, according to release.More Related News
