This is a federal capital case arising from the events occurring in the spring of 2005 when the Petitioner, Joseph Edward Duncan III, traveled from North Dakota to Idaho on an orchestrated crime spree looking for children to abduct, abuse, and kill.² On May 16, 2005, Duncan carefully choose his victims when he broke into a rural home near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and savagely killed three individuals living at the home and kidnapped two of the minor children — S.G. and D.G. — who were eight and nine years old at the time. Duncan took the two children to a secluded campsite in the Lolo National Forest in Montana that he had chosen for its privacy where, for the next several weeks, he inhumanely tortured, raped, and sexually assaulted both children. Duncan eventually killed D.G. at the campsite. On June 22, 2005, Duncan returned to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho with S.G. and he was apprehended when an employee of the restaurant where he and S.G. were eating identified the two and called law enforcement.

The State of Idaho charged Duncan with three counts of kidnaping and three counts of murder relating to his killings of the three individuals at the Coeur d'Alene home. Duncan plead guilty to the state charges on October 16, 2006.
