On April 4, 2018, the Atlanta Citizen’s Journal reported that Sandy Ray Duncan, 47, of Linden, was charged with the shooting death of his cousin, Danny Duncan, 44, who also lived in southern Cass County at the time of the incident. Sandy took a plea deal that was offered that resulted in an Involuntary Manslaughter charge. The plea bargain includes 10-years-probation, with deferred adjudication, a $10,000 fine, 240 hours of community service, and 60 days in the County Jail.
