He had a girlfriend, Claire, but their relationship ended when he discovered she was cheating on him. He moved out of their home and attacked Claire's lover.
Claire was arrested when a large quantity of the drug Ice was found on her. The Drug Squad told Duncan that the charges against her would go away if she would wear a wire to help catch the Drug Dealers. Duncan said that Claire would not participate in this unless he was in on it. Senior Sergeant Stanley Wolfe refused to let Duncan be a part in this. Eventually the Claire wore a wire, the operation went belly up and she along with Jumbo Watson from the Drug Squad were killed.
