Joseph Edward Duncan III was an American serial killer and child molester. He was born on February 25, 1963, in Tacoma, Washington. Duncan's criminal activities spanned over two decades, during which he committed multiple heinous crimes.

Duncan's criminal history began in 1980 when he was arrested for the abduction and molestation of a 14-year-old boy. He pleaded guilty to charges and was sentenced to 20 years in prison. However, he was released on parole after serving only 14 years.

In 2005, Duncan attracted national attention when he abducted and murdered a 9-year-old boy named Dylan Groene in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Duncan also killed Dylan's mother, older brother, and his mother's boyfriend. He then kidnapped and sexually abused Dylan's younger sister, Shasta, who miraculously survived.

During the police investigation into the Groene family murders, Duncan's previously committed heinous crimes came to light. It was revealed that he had kidnapped two Idaho children, Anthony Martinez and Sammy Weaver, in the 1990s but had not been caught.

After his capture, Joseph Edward Duncan faced trial and was convicted of the Groene family murders. In 2008, he was sentenced to death for his crimes.

Duncan's case raised significant concerns and debate about the effectiveness of the criminal justice system's handling of dangerous individuals. Many believed that his early parole and failure to monitor his activities contributed to the horrific crimes he committed later.

Joseph Edward Duncan died on March 28, 2021, while on death row at the United States Penitentiary in Terra Haute, Indiana. His cause of death was not disclosed.

His actions will forever be remembered as a terrifying reminder of the dangers posed by individuals with a propensity for violence and the importance of prioritizing the safety of potential victims.
