This is awful and unexpected news to learn about the untimely death of a colleague who we have lost in the prime of her life.
We did not know Ms. Duncan well. But we saw her in court as a fierce advocate for her clients, and someone who was well liked by judges, prosecutors and defense attorneys and who always appeared to have a smile on her face. As comments come in about her, we will post some on the blog to add to her memory from those who knew her best.
