“I began to weep like a child as I confessed to Beth I'd been freebasing. 'I smoke it out of a pipe’...Beth was on the next flight from Denver. I was too high to pick her up from the airport,” Duane wrote in his autobiography as cited by E! News. However, Beth helped Duane get his life together. As the bounty hunter puts it, "If Beth hadn't saved me, I'm not sure I would have survived those years.” 

The announcement Duane released on his Instagram comes around the same time and he and Beth’s new series “Dogs Most Wanted” premiered on WGN America. The new series is incredibly important to the chapman family  as Beth filmed the season while she was alive and fighting throat cancer.

In an earlier trailer, Beth had explained why she was on the hunt while battling cancer, "Once you find out that it's an incurable lung cancer, there's no stage 5," Beth says in the trailer. " If I’m going to die, I’m going to die in my boots.”
