On December 30, 2025, a missed workday raised alarms. When dentist Spencer Tepe failed to show up for work, concern quickly escalated, leading police to a home in Columbus, Ohio, where Spencer and his wife Monique Tepe were found shot and killed. Their two young children were alive inside the house. There were no signs of forced entry. No struggle. This was not a random act.

Hi, I'm rich and I'm Tina.

2
00:00:02.040 --> 00:00:04.200
If there's one thing we've learned in over twenty years

3
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:05.559
of marriage.

4
00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:07.320
Some days you'll feel like killing your husband, and.

5
00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:09.240
Some days you'll feel like killing your wife.

6
00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:27.399
Welcome to Love Mary Kill a bonus episode.

7
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:30.280
Hi, Tina, Hey rich, How are you today?

8
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:32.320
I'm fair? How are you fair?

9
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:34.679
Fair? I'm good? Why only fair?

10
00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:37.520
Well, if I'm being perfectly honest, I just had a

11
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:39.960
piece of cheesecake that you got me for my birthday

12
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.520
and now I have a stomach cape. Oh and I

13
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.000
only d a small portion of it. But it's very rich.

14
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:45.920
Yeah it is.

15
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:49.280
But you have a breaking news story to tell us today.

16
00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:52.039
Yeah. This case has been in the news and it's

17
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:54.320
caught a lot of people's attention. It caught my attention,

18
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:57.200
a really riveting case. So we wanted to put out

19
00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:00.759
a bonus episode with everything that we know today about

20
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:04.599
the murder of a married couple, Monique and Spencer Tepe.

21
00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:09.480
This crime took place in the Wineland Park neighborhood of Columbus, Ohio,

22
00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:12.480
on December thirtieth of twenty twenty five, so just a

23
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:15.879
couple of weeks ago. We're recording this on January thirteenth.

24
00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:20.560
The deaths of Spencer and Monique were discovered when Spencer

25
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:23.239
failed to show up at his dental practice and no

26
00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:26.640
one could reach either him or his wife Monique. Because

27
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:29.959
this is such a recent case, information is somewhat limited,

28
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:33.280
but we wanted to share what we know. Wineland Park

29
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.799
is located just north of downtown Columbus, Ohio, near the

30
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:41.319
Ohio State University. The neighborhood was once fairly high in crime,

31
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:45.959
mostly drug related, but in recent years it's undergone a revitalization.

32
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:50.599
Previously boarded up apartment complexes have been renovated, and new

33
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:53.920
high end homes have been built. It's now considered a

34
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:58.280
community of upscale residences. It's interesting because usually when I

35
00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:00.200
do a case, I look on Google Maps and I

36
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:02.239
look at Google street View to get an idea of

37
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:06.120
where it took place. This neighborhood has completely changed over

38
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:09.080
the course of five years or so. Google Maps all

39
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:12.319
of their pictures are from five years ago or older.

40
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:14.159
And when I looked at it, I thought, this is

41
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.599
it looks like a really not a great neighborhood. And

42
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:21.080
then I found updated pictures that is just completely changed.

43
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:22.000
Interesting.

44
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:25.199
The Tepees' home was one of those new high end

45
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:30.000
homes located at fourteen eleven North fourth Street in Wineland Park.

46
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:32.800
The couple had a small wedding on their property during

47
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:36.879
COVID in late twenty twenty. Residents described the area as

48
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.719
a real community neighborhood. Kids play together in common areas,

49
00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:43.680
and many of the younger children attend the same daycare.

50
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.560
It should have been a place where the Tepees and

51
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.360
their children felt safe and secure, but tragically, they were

52
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.520
killed in the same location where they got married, just

53
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:58.039
days after their fifth wedding anniversary. Spencer Tepee, who was

54
00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:01.319
thirty seven when he was killed, as a practicing dentist

55
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:05.360
at the Athens Dental Depot in Athens, Ohio, seventy five

56
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:08.400
miles from home. It was a long commute, but the

57
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:11.560
couple was attached to their home in Wineland Park. It

58
00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:13.759
was where they were married, it was where they were

59
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:16.400
raising their four year old daughter and one year old son,

60
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:19.759
and it was where they felt at home. It was

61
00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:22.919
also the social hub of their life. They had people

62
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:25.719
over all the time. Friends said it was the spot

63
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:30.000
where everyone gathered. Spencer was also attached to the Ohio

64
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:33.800
State University in Columbus. He earned his undergrad there with

65
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:37.599
a double major in biology in Spanish, then graduated with

66
00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:42.000
a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in twenty seventeen. Living

67
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:45.400
in Columbus kept him connected to his alma mater and

68
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:49.039
to the elite tier of local medical professionals associated with

69
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:49.879
the university.

70
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:52.280
I just want to say that I'm proud of you

71
00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:55.879
for speaking kindly about the Ohio State University. I know

72
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:57.120
that's not easy for you.

73
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.400
But I can set aside my biases when needed. Born

74
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:05.680
in December nineteen eighty eight in Cincinnati, Spencer was passionate

75
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.800
about being a dentist, dedicated to building meaningful relationships with

76
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:13.840
his patients. He loved competing at almost anything, but his

77
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:18.199
primary sports were soccer and golf. He loved entertaining family

78
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:21.480
and friends. He loved to speak Spanish, but most of all,

79
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:25.600
he loved taking care of his family. Monique Tepi, who

80
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:28.399
was thirty nine when she was killed, has been described

81
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:32.439
as a loving patient and joyful mother whose warmth defined

82
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:37.759
her personality. She was born as Monique Sabatirsky in October

83
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:41.360
nineteen eighty six in Chicago. At one year old, the

84
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:45.480
family moved to Worthington, Ohio, a suburb of Columbus, where

85
00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:46.319
she was raised.

86
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:47.720
She grew up.

87
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:51.399
Playing soccer, was an avid runner who loved horses and reading.

88
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.920
She loved children as well, working at a daycare while

89
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:58.560
attending the Ohio State University where she earned a master's

90
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:03.040
in Early childhood education. Once their children were born, Monique

91
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:06.879
focused on motherhood. Family and friends remember her bright smile,

92
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:12.560
infectious laugh, caring heart, and bubbly personality. Monique had been

93
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:16.120
married once before, to a man named Michael David McKee.

94
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:19.279
We don't know much about Monique's first marriage, but we

95
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:22.319
know that they were married in twenty fifteen and divorced

96
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:26.319
just two years later. Monique and Spencer met online and

97
00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:29.720
were married in December twenty twenty in a private family

98
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:34.120
ceremony at their home. Together, they've been described as generous,

99
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:36.839
with kind hearts and the life of the party, holding

100
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:40.800
many gatherings of family and friends. They loved to travel together,

101
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:43.600
but mostly they loved each other and the family that

102
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.680
they were building. They lived for their children and were

103
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:50.160
also madly in love with each other, acting like newlyweds

104
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:51.920
even years into their marriage.

105
00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:56.160
The crime was discovered relatively quickly because not just one,

106
00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:59.720
but multiple friends and colleagues were concerned when Spencer didn't

107
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.199
show up for work that morning and they called nine

108
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:06.160
one one. He was known for being reliable. The first

109
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:09.879
nine one one call was from doctor Mark Vailrose, the

110
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:13.480
owner of Athens's dental depot, at nine oh three am

111
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:17.480
on December thirtieth. Here's part of that nine one one call.

112
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:23.759
Check one. I guess I would like to ask for

113
00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:29.399
a wellness check on an individual at their home. This individual, Spenter,

114
00:06:29.560 --> 00:06:31.360
works with me, and he did not show up to

115
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:33.199
work this morning and we cannot get a hold of

116
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:34.000
him or his family.

117
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:36.240
Didn'ts out to work.

118
00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:44.160
Correct, Okay, he had a medical problem for uh no,

119
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:46.480
and he's been reliable and we cannot get in touch

120
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:49.680
with him with his wife, his family, anybody that lives

121
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:57.839
in that house. Okay, thanks for you kaving home. I'm

122
00:06:57.920 --> 00:07:02.040
in Borida, I own the business. I was informed by

123
00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:05.000
my employees that he was not at work and he

124
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.000
wanted the offer. Have you guys received anything else like

125
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:14.120
Hall's about him, or like a car accident or anything

126
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:17.680
like that. So sometimes people just don't self work.

127
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:20.040
I mean, maybe that'll out.

128
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:22.720
I just know that he is the most like he

129
00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:24.879
is always on time and he would contact us that

130
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:31.279
there's any issues whatsoever. And I just showed a house

131
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:33.639
to say this, like, we're very, very concerned and this

132
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:35.600
is very out of character and we can't get in

133
00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:38.040
judge with his wife, which is probably the more concerning thing.

134
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:40.399
I think that is really interesting, just the fact that

135
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:42.480
he called nine to one one at nine oh three am.

136
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:45.160
I don't know what time Spencer normally started work, but

137
00:07:45.160 --> 00:07:48.319
it probably wasn't much before then. But you could hear

138
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:52.160
the operator's skepticism, like, well, sometimes people just don't show

139
00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:52.759
up for work.

140
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:55.399
Yeah, it's like she is not a nine to one

141
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:58.439
one operator and doesn't know that really bad things happen

142
00:07:58.480 --> 00:07:59.519
to people all the time.

143
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:02.680
Yeah. And the fact that someone is that concerned there

144
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:05.040
must be a reason. Whether I'm sure people call nine

145
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:08.040
one one for frivolous reasons when someone doesn't show up

146
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:10.600
for work, but for someone to be that concerned, you know,

147
00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:13.079
that's probably something that should be taken seriously.

148
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:17.279
At nine twenty two am, a Columbus Police officer arrived

149
00:08:17.319 --> 00:08:21.120
in Windland Park to check on Spencer and Monique, but

150
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:24.439
they accidentally went to an address on Summit Street, a

151
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:28.000
few blocks away from fourth, getting no answer at the

152
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:32.600
door of the incorrect residence, the officer left. The next

153
00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:34.399
nine to one to one call came in at nine

154
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:37.480
point fifty seven am from a friend who went to

155
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:40.480
the house to check on Monique and Spencer. He found

156
00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:43.200
the door locked and was alarmed when he thought he

157
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.799
heard the children inside. Here's a clip from that call.

158
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:48.679
Okay, what's the emergency there?

159
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:49.000
Please?

160
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:53.080
For medical? Maybe both, I guess, I don't know. I'm

161
00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:55.000
kind of doing the more. They had a call out there.

162
00:08:55.080 --> 00:08:57.559
They knocked on the front door and back door multiple times,

163
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.200
but there was no answer. Yeah, no answer. I can

164
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:03.159
hear kids inside, and I swear I think I heard

165
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:05.960
one yell, but we can't get in. At this point,

166
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:07.679
I don't know if I neither break the door in

167
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.440
or just get in the house or what were you

168
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:13.200
out there when the peace's out there?

169
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:13.879
I wasn't.

170
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:16.919
I just got here about five minutes. Yeah, okay, all right, Well.

171
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:19.960
Wilson, the MAC out to you again. Really impressive to

172
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:22.039
me that a friend of his shows up at his

173
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:24.639
house at ten am when he wasn't able to get

174
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:27.360
a hold of him. So people really cared about them

175
00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.759
and were concerned if they didn't answer their calls.

176
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:34.000
Remind me how well the kids are one in four. Yeah,

177
00:09:34.039 --> 00:09:37.320
that's so scary to think that they're in the house alone.

178
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.639
Just a minute after that, a colleague of Spencer's called.

179
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:44.240
She was arriving at their house as well. That call

180
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:46.759
was very short, but you can hear the concern in

181
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.600
the woman's voice. Our boss can not report to work.

182
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:51.960
We hadn't been able to get ahold of him for

183
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:54.799
three hours. We are on site and we can hear Okay,

184
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:56.360
I wanted somebody there.

185
00:09:57.080 --> 00:10:01.039
Okay, I making her company called. Then came the fourth

186
00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:05.000
call that changed everything, at ten oh three am. We

187
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:08.360
believe this is the same friend who called earlier. Since

188
00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:10.480
that call, he had been trying to look through the

189
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:14.840
homes windows when he saw something chilling. So he must

190
00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:17.240
have walked around the back of the house when the

191
00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:19.720
other woman called, and that's why she didn't see him,

192
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:20.159
I think.

193
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:20.279
So.

194
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.279
Yeah, here's the fourth nine to one one call.

195
00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:30.120
Nine one one. What's location? Samir Murgency fourteen eleven work course? Okay,

196
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:32.840
fourteen eleven work force. We've got several calls on that.

197
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.919
What's changed since the last person I talked to? There's

198
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:41.639
a body there's a body. There's a body inside. Yeah, okay,

199
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:47.279
hold on one second, let me get you on the

200
00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:53.120
line with the medic. Okay, on the line. Or there's

201
00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:56.440
the body. Our friend wasn't in transphone.

202
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.159
We just took the wellnesship and just came.

203
00:10:58.080 --> 00:10:58.399
Here in.

204
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:08.879
Years deader. Okay, blood than this blood. I think people

205
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.960
should be more than that.

206
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:14.320
The police and fire department arrived minutes later and forced

207
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:17.799
their way inside the house. Spencer and Monique were both

208
00:11:17.840 --> 00:11:22.039
found dead. Spencer had been shot multiple times, while Monique

209
00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:25.320
had at least one gunshot wound to her chest. Their

210
00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:28.120
four year old daughter and seventeen month old son were

211
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:32.320
found physically unharmed, but in a state of extreme distress.

212
00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:34.919
There was no sign of forest entry, no sign of

213
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:38.159
a struggle, and no firearms were found at the scene.

214
00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:41.919
Three spent nine millimeters shell casings were found.

215
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:46.120
Most heart wrenching part about this case is those kids.

216
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:49.039
Those poor kids four years old and seventeen months old,

217
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:52.039
you know, just so young and to be left there

218
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:54.639
with their parents who'd been shot and killed is just

219
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:56.559
so horrifying to think about.

220
00:11:57.360 --> 00:12:00.480
They are so young. Hopefully they won't remember what happened.

221
00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:03.360
Yeah, hopefully let's talk a little bit about what we

222
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:05.679
know of the crime scene and what the police might

223
00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:08.200
be able to ascertain from that. So the first thing

224
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:12.159
was there was no forced entry. What does that tell police.

225
00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:15.639
Well, either someone had a key, or the door wasn't locked,

226
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:18.039
or you know, they answered the door to someone that

227
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:18.759
they knew.

228
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:22.519
Right, so potentially someone that they knew and trusted. Secondly,

229
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:25.080
there was no murder weapon found at the scene, and

230
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:27.440
that's important because a lot of times in these type

231
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.840
of situations, murder suicide is the first thing that they

232
00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:33.279
might think about if a couple is both found dead.

233
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:36.639
And then finally, the fact that the children were there

234
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:41.440
and they were physically unharmed. That suggests that they the

235
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:45.399
person who killed them was specifically targeting the adults and

236
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.240
sparing the children, which is common in domestic or retaliatory

237
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:51.159
type killings.

238
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:55.200
Overall, the scene told the police that this wasn't random,

239
00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:59.279
It was a controlled, targeted, and intentional crime. As news

240
00:12:59.279 --> 00:13:02.639
of the tragic reached the community, friends and neighbors began

241
00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:06.840
leaving sunflowers and roses outside the families home on the

242
00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:09.960
exact spot where the couple had stood five years earlier

243
00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:13.240
on their wedding day. In the days following the murders,

244
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:16.639
while information was limited, the Wineland Park neighborhood was on

245
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:20.080
high alert. No one knew whether this was a random killing,

246
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:24.960
a burglary gone wrong, or a more targeted murder. Residents

247
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:28.399
were deeply frightened and rattled as the suspect remained at large.

248
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:32.360
One neighbor, speaking anonymously due to fear, confessed that she

249
00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:35.480
had been unable to sleep since the shooting and found

250
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:41.080
herself questioning why them and not us. The normally quiet

251
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:45.639
neighborhood was subjected to overwhelming media attention, frustrating the families

252
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.320
of Spencer and Monique, who felt like their deaths were

253
00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:51.879
being treated as a TV show rather than a real tragedy.

254
00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:56.679
This was exacerbated by TikTok sleuths and social media streamers

255
00:13:56.879 --> 00:13:59.960
who went live from the sidewalk and attempted to peer

256
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:03.039
into U haul trucks as the house was being cleared.

257
00:14:04.159 --> 00:14:06.480
The community also had to deal with the victim blaming

258
00:14:06.519 --> 00:14:10.000
comments on social media from outsiders who suggested the couple

259
00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:13.120
was at fault for choosing to live in Wineland Park.

260
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:17.039
Local residents pushed back, saying that while Wineland Park had

261
00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:19.799
been a less than safe place to live a few

262
00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:24.159
years ago, it had undergone a dramatic revitalization where children

263
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:27.879
could often be seen playing outside happily. We'll be back

264
00:14:27.919 --> 00:14:28.600
after a break.

265
00:14:36.080 --> 00:14:39.320
The neighborhood where the Tepees lived was a residential area

266
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.519
with houses close together, many of them with security and

267
00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:47.080
doorbell cameras. Investigators immediately spoke to neighbors and asked to

268
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:50.600
see their footage. The investigators had a lot of footage

269
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:54.720
to work from, and they found two very interesting clues. First,

270
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.240
there was a hooded individual wearing a dark sweatshirt, face

271
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:01.840
obscured walking com through a snow covered alley near the

272
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:05.120
tepees home in the early morning hours of December thirtieth,

273
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.639
sometime between two and five am. Second, they were able

274
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.919
to see a vehicle that arrived shortly before this individual

275
00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:16.039
showed up on the scene, and the same vehicle departed

276
00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:20.519
shortly after. The Columbus Police released footage of the individual

277
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:24.480
to the public, asking for any help in identifying them.

278
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:27.919
In a separate incident, on December nineteenth, just eleven days

279
00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:30.799
before the deaths, a terrified woman who lived near the

280
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:34.600
couple's home called nine one one to report someone banging

281
00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:38.720
loudly on her door at two thirty am. It's unclear

282
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.360
at this point whether this incident was related to the

283
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:45.919
murders or not. During the investigation, the police checked records

284
00:15:45.960 --> 00:15:50.080
for previous incidents at the Tepees home. The only previous

285
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:53.360
nine one one call associated with the Tepees address was

286
00:15:53.399 --> 00:15:57.440
from eight months earlier, in April twenty twenty five. This

287
00:15:57.519 --> 00:16:00.519
call originated from the area of the tepey Ue residents,

288
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:05.159
and whoever called hung up before the dispatcher answered. When

289
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:08.519
the dispatcher called the number back, a woman answered.

290
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:12.240
Hi, We've got to hang up call. Is everything okay? Yeah,

291
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:17.440
I'm sorry, I'm okay, tay sure, Yeah, sounds like you're crying.

292
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:19.159
Do you need police, paramedics or anything?

293
00:16:19.679 --> 00:16:23.399
No, no, No, I'm okay.

294
00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:24.600
I'm emotional.

295
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:28.440
That nine one one operator seemed much more friendly than

296
00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:28.919
the others.

297
00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:32.799
Nicest voice. Yeah, that's a very strange call.

298
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:35.320
Though it is a very strange call. The woman went

299
00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:38.120
on to tell the dispatcher that the situation was something

300
00:16:38.200 --> 00:16:41.879
between quote me and my man, but she didn't provide

301
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:46.159
any names or their specific location. Now, although the call

302
00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:48.639
is tied to the Teppe's address in the nine to

303
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:51.919
one one system. It's important to note that in densely

304
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.480
populated areas like Wineland Park, nine one one GPS pinpointing

305
00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:59.879
only has an accuracy radius of about one hundred feet.

306
00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:02.879
That means it's possible that the call came from a

307
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:06.599
neighbor's house or potentially someone out on the sidewalk or

308
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:07.680
outside of the house.

309
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:11.319
So no officers were sent to that house, even though

310
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:14.119
the woman sounded subtly she might be in distress.

311
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:16.039
No, they were, which is a little surprising to me.

312
00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:20.680
They would. Yeah, I've never heard audio of Monique's voice,

313
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:23.160
but her family members who have since heard the call

314
00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:25.920
say that it is definitely not her voice on that

315
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:29.160
nine to one one call. So ultimately, it's not clear

316
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:31.400
whether this call is relevant to the case or not.

317
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:34.480
Did it come from a neighbor's house, was it someone

318
00:17:34.519 --> 00:17:37.680
calling from the sidewalk, or was this somehow related to

319
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:40.480
the murders that took place a few months later.

320
00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:43.559
So the vehicle turned out to be the key that

321
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:47.559
broke the case open. Detectives utilized a high concentration of

322
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:52.039
private security and doorbell cameras and Wineland Park to identify

323
00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:55.960
a specific vehicle that arrived shortly before the homicides and

324
00:17:56.000 --> 00:18:00.880
departed immediately afterward. By synthesizing multiple care camra angles, they

325
00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:05.119
were able to establish a cohesive narrative of the car's movements.

326
00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:10.000
Authorities used license plate recognition technology to track the vehicle's

327
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:14.279
movement as it traveled across state lines. This allowed them

328
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:18.240
to verify the killer's presence in both Ohio and Illinois

329
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:22.480
during the timeframe of the murders. The vehicle was eventually

330
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:26.960
traced to Rockford, Illinois. I know her well, nearly seven

331
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:31.240
hours from Columbus and who happened to work in Rockford, Illinois,

332
00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:37.720
Monique Sex husband Michael David McKee. Once the car was located,

333
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:42.480
court records indicate that investigators found definitive evidence that McKee

334
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:46.359
had ownership of the vehicle and was in physical possession

335
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:49.759
of it both before and after the homicides took place.

336
00:18:50.519 --> 00:18:52.559
Do you know anything like what kind of car it was?

337
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:56.160
No, I never saw any specifics about the vehicle.

338
00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:59.359
Can you describe that a little more, like how they

339
00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:01.920
were able to point his vehicle on the highways?

340
00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:05.920
Like I wish that first, Yeah, I really wish I could.

341
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:07.880
It sounds like, you know, when you drive on the

342
00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:10.920
toll roads they have, like the cameras that take a

343
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:13.200
picture of your license plate and then you get a

344
00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:15.640
bill in the mail. I assume it's something to do

345
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:16.680
with that technology.

346
00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:19.880
Oh, that's true, because, like I said, I'm from that

347
00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:22.839
area r Illinois, and there are a lot of tolls

348
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.799
between Illinois and two. I'm guessing he would.

349
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:29.119
Have gone through Indiana, Yeah.

350
00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:30.799
And there's still like a lot of tolls, and then

351
00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:33.880
in Ohio there's you know, again a lot of tolls.

352
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:36.960
So I guess that's probably the technology that they use primarily,

353
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:37.279
I think.

354
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:38.119
So.

355
00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:41.440
So what do we know about Michael David McKee. He's

356
00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:44.359
thirty nine years old, a vascular surgeon who lived in

357
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:48.319
the Chicago area and worked in Rockford, Illinois. He graduated

358
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:52.400
from Ohio State University's medical school and has licenses to

359
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:56.240
practice medicine in Illinois and California. We know that he

360
00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:59.960
has family in Zanesville, Ohio, which is about fifty five

361
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:04.240
five miles east of Columbus. Regarding his marriage to Monique,

362
00:20:04.279 --> 00:20:07.640
they were married in twenty fifteen, separated just eight months

363
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:11.440
later in March twenty sixteen, and then Monique filed for

364
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:15.039
divorce just over a year after that, in June twenty seventeen,

365
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:18.920
in her divorce filing, Monique simply stated the reason for

366
00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:24.759
separation as incompatibility. Based on court documents, the Columbus Dispatch

367
00:20:24.799 --> 00:20:28.720
has reported that their divorce was amicable because they had

368
00:20:28.759 --> 00:20:32.000
no children and few assets. Their divorce was final in

369
00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:35.880
a couple of months. On January tenth, twenty twenty six,

370
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:39.200
McKee was taken into custody in Rockford and charged with

371
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:42.640
two counts of murder. Those charges were increased a day

372
00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:45.799
later to aggravated murder. As far as we know, the

373
00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:47.799
murder weapon has not been recovered.

374
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:52.279
Regarding McKee's motive, we can only speculate at this point.

375
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.599
It seems strange, though, that, after being divorced for almost

376
00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:59.079
nine years and living in separate states, that McKee would

377
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:02.279
suddenly snap and kill his ex wife and her current husband.

378
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.480
His alleged involvement suggests the possibility of the long term

379
00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:09.920
grievance and an intent to destroy the new life that

380
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:13.359
Monique had built for herself. He fits the profile of

381
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:16.599
an aggrieved form or partner whose resentment may have been

382
00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:21.119
triggered by recent milestones, such as the Tepee's fifth wedding anniversary.

383
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.359
As far as you know, did he have any previous

384
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:28.400
history of mental illness, violence, or arrests.

385
00:21:28.039 --> 00:21:29.799
Not that I've seen. The only thing I've really read

386
00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:32.400
about him is an article that came out a day

387
00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:35.079
or so ago about his neighbor, and it was your

388
00:21:35.119 --> 00:21:38.119
typical neighbor saying he seemed like such a nice guy.

389
00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:40.079
He seemed like a normal guy. But I don't know

390
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:44.000
anything about whether he had any past history of arrests

391
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:46.960
or anything else. I also don't know if he and

392
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:49.799
Monique were still in touch. It seems like there's no

393
00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:51.720
reason why they would be in touch. They didn't have

394
00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:54.359
kids together, they were divorced for over eight years, they

395
00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:57.880
lived in different states. But I suppose it's possible that

396
00:21:57.920 --> 00:21:58.640
they were in touch.

397
00:21:59.519 --> 00:22:03.119
Maybe so something provoked him in her social media. I mean,

398
00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:05.359
she was posting pictures of her family, and it just

399
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:08.279
made him angry that, you know, he didn't have a family,

400
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:08.680
you know.

401
00:22:08.920 --> 00:22:10.920
Yeah, that's the only thing I can assume is like

402
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:13.559
things weren't going well in his life and he's seeing her.

403
00:22:13.640 --> 00:22:16.240
You know, their wedding anniversary was just a few days before.

404
00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:20.039
Maybe he saw something and it triggered him. It's just

405
00:22:20.160 --> 00:22:23.359
It's mind boggling though, that many years after divorce that

406
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:26.759
someone's still carrying around some type of grievance.

407
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:29.079
Well, it's not unusual and it's devastating.

408
00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:34.119
That is everything that we know as of today, January thirteenth.

409
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:36.720
We know that the justice system moves slowly, so it

410
00:22:36.759 --> 00:22:39.920
will take a while before this case is resolved. While

411
00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:43.839
Michael David McKee is innocent until proven guilty, it does

412
00:22:43.880 --> 00:22:46.720
seem to me at least that investigators got the right

413
00:22:46.759 --> 00:22:49.279
person based on, you know, the evidence of his vehicle

414
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:52.440
and all that. But we'll let you know as things develop.

415
00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:56.519
This case has really caught the public's attention because it's

416
00:22:56.559 --> 00:23:00.359
just so devastating. Spencer and Monique Teppi were build building

417
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:04.319
a life together, a home, a future centered around their children,

418
00:23:04.839 --> 00:23:07.759
and in a matter of minutes that future was erased.

419
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:11.799
Their two young children survived, but they'll grow up without

420
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:14.640
the people who love them most, carrying a loss that

421
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:17.799
they're too young to understand, but will feel for the

422
00:23:17.799 --> 00:23:21.279
rest of their lives. In the days following the murders,

423
00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:24.920
Spencer's cousins started a GoFundMe to help support the children,

424
00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:28.160
which we'll link to in our show. Notes because this

425
00:23:28.279 --> 00:23:31.559
case has touched so many people, that fundraiser has been

426
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:35.200
met with an outpouring of generosity, which shows how many

427
00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:38.480
people were really moved by what happened and how deeply

428
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:42.880
this loss has resonated beyond just the family. But of course,

429
00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:45.440
no amount of money can replace the parents of these

430
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:48.200
young children or give them back the life that was

431
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:51.200
stolen from them. What we can hope for, and what

432
00:23:51.240 --> 00:23:54.000
we truly wish for these children is that they grow

433
00:23:54.079 --> 00:23:58.640
up surrounded by love, that they're protected, supported and reminded

434
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.759
often of who they're parents were and how deeply they

435
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:06.119
were loved. Rest in peace, Monique, Rest in peace. Spencer

436
00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:10.079
Well said, I don't know much about the family situation.

437
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:12.400
I did read in one place that the children are

438
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:15.880
in the care of relatives of either Spencer's or Moniques,

439
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.359
but I don't know any more than that. But obviously

440
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:20.839
we hope for the best for them. We talked a

441
00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:23.279
little bit about the fact that investigators were able to

442
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:27.440
track down the alleged killer using all this technology, both

443
00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:32.000
door cams, you know, the license plate recognition technology. I

444
00:24:32.079 --> 00:24:34.039
think that's one of the interesting things about this case,

445
00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:37.319
that it's harder to get away with crimes like this,

446
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:39.839
especially when you're traveling across state lines.

447
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.839
It is great, but we are all being tracked all

448
00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:45.960
the time, all the time, most of us, you know,

449
00:24:46.039 --> 00:24:48.200
we're just going about our day, but still it makes

450
00:24:48.200 --> 00:24:50.680
you a little uncomfortable knowing. I think about this when

451
00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:53.279
we go for walks at night sometimes, you know, like

452
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:56.359
all of our neighbors have ring cameras, and it's a

453
00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:58.519
good thing. It keeps us safe, but it's also just

454
00:24:58.599 --> 00:25:01.119
kind of eerie knowing how many CA cameras you're on

455
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:01.880
all day long.

456
00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:02.279
Yeah.

457
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:03.839
I agree, but.

458
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:07.400
In this case, it tracked a murderer and helped catch him.

459
00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:09.640
And let's hope that the justice system works and he

460
00:25:09.799 --> 00:25:10.759
is brought to justice.

461
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:13.240
It sounds like a pretty cut and dry case, but

462
00:25:13.319 --> 00:25:13.799
you never know.

463
00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:16.759
Yeah, let us know what you think. We hope to

464
00:25:16.799 --> 00:25:19.759
bring you more breaking newscases over the course of this year.

465
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:29.200
So no snack, huh, No snack. Wow.

466
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:31.720
I know one of the first episodes, we haven't done

467
00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:33.920
a snack, only because this was a kind of a

468
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:35.079
different episode we.

469
00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:37.480
Knew a hard time. I think everyone doesn't mind if

470
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:38.000
we have a snack.

471
00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:40.279
You've had some cheesecake earlier. It sounds like. And I

472
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:41.000
had a little cake.

473
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:44.599
It was delicious, but it's like you have to only

474
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:46.599
eat a little bit at a time. Yeah, our son

475
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:48.519
did give me. I think it was like kind of

476
00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:52.799
an old person's joke. Gave me some chewy wher there's candy,

477
00:25:53.160 --> 00:25:55.440
because old people eat where there's candy. And they were

478
00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.160
really delicious.

479
00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:58.960
You're sugar free, sugar for they don't. They are really

480
00:25:58.960 --> 00:26:00.039
good sugar.

481
00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:02.359
Free, but yeah, they probably have like Stevia or something

482
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:02.599
like that.

483
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:04.039
And then I thought they were really But if you.

484
00:26:04.079 --> 00:26:06.519
Heard Cosmo in here earlier, I feel kind of bad

485
00:26:06.519 --> 00:26:08.640
because I lied to him and I said, hey, we're

486
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:12.839
recording a quick episode. It's about black cats, and that's

487
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:15.480
why he came in here. And then he was like,

488
00:26:15.759 --> 00:26:17.240
this isn't about black cats, Tina.

489
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:18.960
I thought you told him he was going to be

490
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:19.359
a star.

491
00:26:20.079 --> 00:26:23.000
Well, I mean he is a star. Everyone loves Cosmo.

492
00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:23.480
True.

493
00:26:24.039 --> 00:26:26.680
So before we go, one quick thing, I'm wondering how

494
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:30.400
your New Year's resolution is going. I don't even remember

495
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:32.000
if you had a New Year's resolution.

496
00:26:32.279 --> 00:26:34.880
No did. I didn't have one. I piggybacked on yours.

497
00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:38.079
I said I didn't have one, and you said Yours

498
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:41.079
was to be more mindful in the new year and

499
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:44.960
spend less time doing unmindful things. I guess I said

500
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:47.160
that sounds good. I'm going to do the same thing, so.

501
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:50.799
I mention it. Because the second Friday in the new

502
00:26:50.880 --> 00:26:53.279
year is known as you've heard this before.

503
00:26:53.440 --> 00:26:54.519
We've talked before.

504
00:26:54.640 --> 00:26:57.240
Oh we did probably two years ago. That's okay, you're

505
00:26:57.279 --> 00:26:57.680
so late.

506
00:26:57.720 --> 00:26:58.839
We've been doing this for a while now.

507
00:26:58.920 --> 00:27:01.960
Okay, Well, it's called quitters Friday, and most people's resolution

508
00:27:02.319 --> 00:27:05.720
does not last until the second Friday of the new year,

509
00:27:05.759 --> 00:27:10.240
which is kind of shocking to me. Like you mentioned,

510
00:27:10.319 --> 00:27:13.319
mine was to be use my time with more intent,

511
00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:15.519
and I have actually been really good on that. I

512
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:18.160
actually started that and the end of last year because

513
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:21.440
I was going a little crazy with you know, there's

514
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:24.400
just a lot of a lot of demands on our attention.

515
00:27:24.759 --> 00:27:25.799
We already talked about that.

516
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:28.319
So it's Quitter's Friday, this coming Friday, or was it

517
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:29.720
last Friday.

518
00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:32.920
It was last Friday, which seems like, but the first

519
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:35.880
of the year was Jane was on a Thursday, so

520
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:37.359
that was really only a week into it. So I

521
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:40.720
kind of feel like it's this coming Friday, really, but

522
00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:43.200
I had some other like loose goals that I set

523
00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:46.519
my for myself that were ridiculous that we weren't going

524
00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:48.559
to do any takeout in the month of January.

525
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:50.680
I can't even imagine why you thought that was going

526
00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:51.119
to work.

527
00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:54.960
Yeah, I was dead. And the other one, I was

528
00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:56.960
going to try to work out every day in the

529
00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:59.319
month of January. I've worked out most.

530
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:01.519
Days, you well, much better than me.

531
00:28:01.960 --> 00:28:03.839
But you know that one has kind of gone by

532
00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:07.359
the wayside too. But I'm curious if our listeners how

533
00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:11.240
your resolutions are going. I believe that National Quitter's Day

534
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:14.799
was founded by a fitness app and they realize that

535
00:28:15.000 --> 00:28:17.359
by the second fright, that's when people start dropping off

536
00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:20.640
of tracking their exercise and clever marketing.

537
00:28:21.039 --> 00:28:23.440
Yeah, well, thank you all so much for listening. We

538
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:26.079
