On Wednesday, the GBI announced the arrest of Duane Ellington Nunnally, 51, of Savannah, on charges of exploitation of an elderly person, filing false documents and theft by taking.
The investigation began on August 27, 2025, after Evans County Probate Judge Darin McCoy filed a report raising concerns about potential elder abuse.

Once the investigation is complete, the case will be turned over to the Atlantic Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s Office for review and possible prosecution.
