Deaven Tucker, with a last known address of Pidge Avenue, is accused of the shooting death of Jennifer Duarte at Grotto and Hurley avenues in Pawtucket's West End on Nov. 21 last year, according to a news release today from Attorney General Patrick C. Lynch. Other counts related to the murder charge involved weapon possession, using a firearm after having been convicted of a violent crime, and others. The day before Duarte was found by police lying in the road, Tucker is accused of committing four counts of first-degree robbery. Three of them were against tellers at the Sovereign Bank at 131 Elmgrove Ave., Providence, and one was against a customer, the authorities allege. The Providence County grand jury handed up a secret indictment, which means the grand jury investigates and brings the original charge. -- projo.com staff writer Michael P. McKinney At Wednesday's arraignment, the Attorney General's Office took steps to have Tucker considered a "habitual offender," which means he faces a possible "sentence enhancement" of 25 years if found guilty. According to the Attorney General's Office,Tucker's past convictions include: in 1995, two counts of breaking and entering; one count of assault with a dangerous weapon in 1999, and one drug count in 2003.

Would anyone happen to have a picture of Jennifer? She is my age, and I went to elementary school with someone with the same name. She was my bestfriend then. I wonder if this is the same person. Please contact me Shaplaie_dht@yahoo.com
