McKee Murder Case: Prosecutor Breaks Down the Unsealed Evidence
Newly unsealed documents in the Monique Tepe and Spencer Tepe murder case reveal the prosecution's evidence and the alleged psychology of a killer who refused to let go. According to witnesses, Michael McKee told Monique three things during and after their marriage: he could "kill her at any time," he would "find her and buy the house right next to her," and "she will always be his wife." Surveillance allegedly captured McKee walking through the Tepes' yard on December 7th, 2025—twenty-three days before the murders—while Spencer and Monique attended the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. Monique reportedly left early, upset about something involving her ex-husband. The affidavit lays out a prosecutor's roadmap: stolen license plates from two states, a cell phone that went completely dark during the murder window, a vehicle tracked arriving before and leaving after. Witnesses told investigators that during their marriage, McKee allegedly strangled Monique and forced unwanted sex on her. Strangulation remains the strongest predictor of future lethality in domestic violence cases. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis examines the case through the prosecution's lens. He identifies which evidence he'd anchor the entire case around, addresses the hearsay problem with statements Monique allegedly made to friends about death threats spanning years, and explains whether prior abuse allegations—never criminally charged—can even reach a jury. Firearm specifications allege an automatic weapon or silencer was used, signaling calculated premeditation. The case reveals a brutal truth: doing everything right—leaving, divorcing, starting over—doesn't always protect you from someone who never recognized your autonomy. Spencer and Monique Tepe were found shot to death in their Columbus home on December 30th, 2025. Their two young children were found unharmed.
