I've wondered that a bit as well. I would prefer the old Duke die of natural causes or an accident, maybe even one perpetrated by the rest of the evil allies without Luca's direct knowledge/involvement.

If Delilah manipulated him enough over those three years, she could have persuaded him to do so, even if he hadn't wanted to originally. Maybe his non-lethal elimination is evidence of him murdering his father while under her coercion, which would be a little better.

Or perhaps, the others killed his father and evidence of this is brought to light to Luca, and he quits the alliance of evil and surrenders himself.

Otherwise, he's just a far less interesting Hiram Burrows.
