Hutto told police that he and Duncan were "playing" inside the hotel by pretending to shoot each other with finger guns when he pointed his real gun at her and "it went off," according to the probable cause affidavit.

Duncan was shot in the stomach and bled out on the floor, and Hutto fled the scene but left behind his wallet and ID, the affidavit says. 

Hutto's attorney, Donnie Murrell Jr., said he didn't know why Hutto pulled his real gun out during the "playful" exchange, according to the Palm Beach Post. 

"This was an accident," Murrell Jr. said. "A stupid, tragic, heartbreaking accident that basically ruined two families."

The judge read a victim impact statement from Duncan's family, who couldn't be reached for comment Tuesday.

Fox News Digital filed a request for the court transcript for the victim impact statement and left a message with Murrell Jr. 

Murrell Jr. insisted his client and Duncan "were in love" despite their three-decade-plus age difference, according to Murrell's comments in the Palm Beach Post. 

Duncan's parents believed otherwise. 

Her dad requested a welfare check in late October 2020 after he didn't hear from his daughter for 48 hours and accused Hutto of giving her drugs to keep her sedated, the affidavit says.

Authorities later found Duncan's partially decomposed body in the hotel bathroom, and confronted Hutto about her death in Jacksonville.

"Oh my God. I think I hurt my Gracie," he allegedly told police, according to the affidavit.

Hutto co-founded the Salt Life clothing line, which was marketed to surfers, but hasn't been affiliated with the company since he sold it in 2013.
