However, according to The Telegraph, Duncan, his lawyer, and his mother testified that the 25-year-old struggled with his mental health and substance abuse.
Per the outlet, Duncan admitted to the court that he needs to make a change and is "committed to getting there." While Early was not present for Duncan's sentencing, prosecutors said, per The Telegraph, that he wanted Duncan to receive some punishment for his crime.
The Telegraph also reported that Duncan's sentence includes that he must stay away from Early and the Popeyes restaurant.
According to local news outlet WGXA News, Duncan is a former Army reservist, and was previously arrested in Macon back in 2018. The then-20-year-old -- who was reportedly in Macon for training at the time -- was discovered driving under the influence with a stolen gun and drugs after a car accident.
