A proposito di questo titolo

On December 30, 2025, Dr. Spencer Tepe and his wife Monique were found shot dead inside their Columbus, Ohio home. Spencer, a 37-year-old dentist, was shot multiple times. Monique, 39, was shot at least once in the chest. Their two young children — a 4-year-old girl and a 1-year-old boy — were discovered alive in separate rooms, physically unharmed but left alone with the bodies of their parents.

There was no forced entry. Nothing was stolen. Three 9mm shell casings were recovered from the bedroom.

Eleven days later, police made an arrest that shocked no one in the family — but stunned everyone else.

Michael David McKee. A 39-year-old vascular surgeon. Monique's ex-husband. A man with no criminal record, no malpractice history, no visible red flags. They divorced in 2017 after a seven-month marriage. Eight years of silence. And then, according to police, he allegedly drove 300 miles from Chicago to Columbus, executed his ex-wife and her husband, and drove home.

The murder weapon was allegedly found in his penthouse apartment.

This podcast follows every detail of the case against Michael McKee. Every court hearing. Every motion. Every piece of evidence. Every question the prosecution will have to answer — and every hole the defense will try to exploit.

But this is more than a legal case. It's a study in obsession, control, and the kind of danger that hides behind respectable careers and friendly faces. Monique's family says she never called McKee by name after the divorce. Just "her ex-husband." They say she talked about emotional abuse and threatening behavior. That she was always worried about him.

She did everything right. Left early. Didn't fight. Moved on. Built a new life.

It wasn't enough.

The Tepe Murders: The Case Against Michael McKee examines how this happened, what the evidence actually shows, and what this case reveals about domestic violence, grievance obsession, and a legal system that often can't act until it's too late.

New episodes as the case develops. Full trial coverage when it begins.

  • Monique Tepe & Michael McKee Full Analysis: Investigation, Psychology & What The Evidence Reveals
    Jan 21 2026

    Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer delivers comprehensive analysis of the Michael McKee case — from the forensic evidence to the behavioral psychology behind an alleged eight-year grudge against Monique Tepe. Part one examines the investigation: the preliminary NIBIN ballistics match linking a firearm from McKee's Chicago penthouse to shell casings at the crime scene, the surveillance footage placing his vehicle at the Tepe home before and after the murders, and the hooded figure in the alley at 3:52 AM. But significant questions remain. There was no forced entry — investigators haven't explained how McKee allegedly got inside. And no one has addressed why a surgeon trained in precision would keep the murder weapon in his apartment for eleven days. Part two examines the psychology. Monique Tepe did everything right when she left that seven-month marriage. She didn't prolong the divorce. She let him keep the house and the rings, then paid him back with interest when he demanded it. She moved home, rebuilt her life, married Spencer, had two children. She never spoke his name again.

    Her family says they suspected McKee from day one but stayed quiet to protect the investigation. They'd known for years. And the system still couldn't act until two people were dead. Coffindaffer explains the behavioral profile of a grievance collector — someone who holds onto resentment for years, sometimes decades, and never truly lets go. For anyone who recognizes these patterns in their own life, this conversation includes the warning signs that someone may be a long-term threat.

  • Monique Tepe & Michael McKee: Why He Allegedly Waited 8 Years — FBI Behavioral Analysis
    Jan 20 2026

    Monique Tepe's family says the arrest wasn't a shock. They'd suspected Dr. Michael McKee from the moment she and Spencer were found murdered. They just couldn't say anything — they were protecting the investigation. But here's the reality that should unsettle everyone following this case: they'd known for years. Monique had told them about emotional abuse during the marriage. About torment. She was always worried about him. She never spoke his name after the divorce — only called him "her ex-husband." She did everything right. She left after seven months. She didn't fight for assets. She paid what he demanded, including an interest penalty clause. She moved home, rebuilt her life, married Spencer, had two beautiful children.

    Eight years later, police say McKee drove 300 miles from Chicago in the middle of the night and killed them both. Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins us to analyze the psychology behind an eight-year grudge that allegedly ended in a double homicide. We examine the behavioral profile of what Coffindaffer calls a grievance collector — someone who holds onto resentment and perceived slights for years, sometimes decades, and never truly lets go. The divorce records reveal telling control dynamics: McKee demanded the rings back from a marriage that lasted less than a year. The separation agreement required Monique to reimburse him with interest. Coffindaffer explains what these patterns suggest about ownership, entitlement, and how watching an ex build a new family can escalate obsessive attachment into violence. For those who recognize these warning signs, this conversation could be the most important one you hear.

  • Spencer & Monique Tepe Murder Deep Dive: Michael McKee's Malpractice Evasion, "Your Husband" Cards & Alleged 8-Year Obsession
    Jan 20 2026

    Breaking down the Tepe murder case. Vascular surgeon Michael McKee, 39, is charged with two counts of premeditated aggravated murder in the shooting deaths of his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer Tepe in Columbus, Ohio on December 30th, 2025. Their two young children — ages one and four — were found unharmed in the home.

    McKee and Monique divorced in 2017 after a seven-month marriage. Family members describe the relationship as emotionally abusive, with death threats and lasting psychological damage. Monique's brother-in-law Rob Misleh told reporters she was "terrified" of McKee for years and "would talk quite often about how much he messed with her mental health."

    In the months before the murders, McKee was actively evading medical malpractice lawsuits in Nevada. Attorney Dan Laird documented nine failed attempts to serve him — fake addresses, a fax machine phone number, and colleagues who said he'd "just disappeared." His Nevada license had expired in June 2025. Meanwhile, Monique had remarried, had two children, and just celebrated her fifth anniversary with Spencer.

    Police tracked McKee through neighborhood surveillance and linked a firearm from his Chicago residence to shell casings at the scene. He was arrested at a Chick-fil-A in Rockford, Illinois and waived extradition. He plans to plead not guilty. Columbus Police Chief Elaine Bryant called it a "domestic violence-related attack." The case continues to develop.
