Coudersport Man Failed To Appear at Hearing in Elk County Court
Jeffrey Wayne Duell Jr, 32, of Coudersport, failed to appear for his 2:30 p.m. hearing on Friday.
Duell is also well known to law enforcement, with past charges, and sentences not just in Elk, but additionally in McKean, Potter, Tioga, Bradford, and Blair counties.
All of his crimes involve property theft, with the term "kiter" being used for his frequent use of writing bad checks. He was only out on parole from Bradford prison for a few months before receiving these new charges in Elk County.
Ridgway-based state police were called to Legends Sport and Turf in St. Marys on May 19, 2020, for a report of a bad check that was written. Duell reportedly wrote a $13,458.98 personal check from Navy Federal Credit Union for the purchase of a Polaris RZR side-by-side machine.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and his charges in other counties, the case was delayed and continued until this Friday. With his bail revoked Duell is subject to immediate arrest and detention.
