Columbus, Ohio is searching for answers after a beloved dentist and his wife were found shot to death inside their home on December 30, 2025. Dr. Spencer Tepe, 37, and Monique Tepe, 39, were discovered after Spencer mysteriously failed to show up for work at Athens Dental Depot. When coworkers couldn't reach him or his wife, they drove to the couple's Weinland Park home — where they heard the couple's young children crying inside. Police found Spencer and Monique dead from gunshot wounds. He was shot multiple times. She was shot at least once in the chest. Three 9mm casings were recovered, but no gun was found. There were no signs of forced entry. Their two children, ages 4 and 1, were in another room — alive and physically unharmed. The couple got married inside that same home in 2021. They were one month away from their fifth wedding anniversary. Police have ruled out murder-suicide and are treating this as a targeted double homicide. A city crime camera sits near the home, but police won't say if it captured anything useful. No suspect has been identified. No motive has been disclosed. The investigation is led by Detective Weiner. Tips can be sent to Columbus Police Homicide at 614-645-4730 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-461-TIPS. #TepeMurders #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #OhioMurder #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimeToday #WeinlandPark #UnsolvedCase #DoubleHomicide #ColdCase Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
A young Ohio couple was gunned down inside their own home while their two small children were in another room. Dr. Spencer Tepe, a 37-year-old dentist, and his wife Monique, 39, were found dead on December 30, 2025 after Spencer failed to show up for work at Athens Dental Depot. Coworkers drove to the couple's Weinland Park home in Columbus, heard children crying inside, and discovered Spencer's body through a window. Police found no signs of forced entry. No firearm was recovered. Three 9mm shell casings were collected from the scene. Spencer had multiple gunshot wounds; Monique was shot at least once in the chest. Their children — a 4-year-old daughter and 1-year-old son — were found unharmed. The couple had been married since 2021 and exchanged vows inside the same house where they were killed. They were less than a month from their fifth anniversary. Columbus police have ruled out murder-suicide and are investigating this as a double homicide. A police camera near the home may hold clues, but investigators haven't said whether it captured anything. No suspect. No motive. No answers. Detective Weiner leads the case. Anyone with information should call Columbus Homicide at 614-645-4730 or Crime Stoppers at 614-461-TIPS. #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimePodcast #WeinlandPark #OhioHomicide #UnsolvedMurder #DoubleHomicide #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A chilling surveillance video captures a shadowy figure lurking near the home where a dentist & his wife were gunned down in their home. A machete-wielding maniac charges cops, gets blasted - unveiling a triple homicide inside a New Jersey home. Plus, a 'booby trap" lands a lingerie laden suspect in cuffs. Jennifer Gould reports. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This true crime breaking news story begins in Columbus, Ohio, where a respected dentist, Dr. Tepe, and his wife Monique were found brutally murdered inside their own home while they slept. Investigators say the killings happened sometime between midnight and early morning, and what immediately stunned police was what did not happen. There was no forced entry, no ransacking, and nothing stolen. Instead, the crime scene pointed to a calculated and highly targeted execution. Surveillance footage now released by police shows a lone figure approaching the home, dressed head to toe in dark clothing, moving with a distinctive gait that investigators believe could be the key to finally identifying the killer. The house, valued at roughly $700,000, sits in an area undergoing redevelopment, but detectives have made it clear this was not a random robbery or gang-related shooting. Whoever entered the home appeared to know exactly how to get inside, including access to a coded door. That detail has fueled intense scrutiny over who may have known the entry code, especially since the couple previously hosted large gatherings at the residence. Inside the bedroom, only three shots were fired. Police believe those rounds were deliberate kill shots, striking both victims with precision rather than chaos. The restrained number of casings, the timing, and the clean entry and exit have all raised the possibility that this was either deeply personal or professionally arranged. As the investigation continues, attention has also turned to another devastating case involving family violence, the shocking killings tied to Sarah Grace Patrick. At just sixteen years old, Patrick is accused of fatally shooting her mother and stepfather while they slept, striking them in the head multiple times. The case has gripped the true crime world because of its brutality, the age of the accused, and the looming questions about motive, mental state, and family dynamics. With a trial already fast-tracked, prosecutors insist the evidence is strong, though much remains sealed due to her status as a minor. Together, these cases underscore the unsettling reality that some of the most horrifying crimes happen behind closed doors, committed not by strangers, but by someone who knew exactly where to stand and when to strike. As new surveillance video circulates and investigators ask the public for help, one question looms over both stories. Who is capable of this level of violence, and what truth is still hiding in plain sight. #TrueCrime #BreakingNews #OhioMurders #DrTepe #MoniqueTepe #ColumbusOhio #SurveillanceVideo #JusticeForVictims #CrimeInvestigation #UnsolvedMurders

Can adults really expand their maxilla? Is treating sleep apnea with a CPAP or mandibular advancement device only MASKING the problem? How does craniofacial anatomy influence airway health, and what should dentists look for? Dr. Dave Singh joins us to dive into CranioFacial Sleep Medicine. He breaks down how structural issues—like a narrow maxilla, high-arched palate, or limited tongue space—can be root causes of sleep-disordered breathing, rather than just treating symptoms. The episode also touches on controversies in orthodontics and presents evidence supporting interventions once thought impossible in adults. https://youtu.be/WUyeOjKquJU Watch PDP253 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Obstructive Sleep Apnea is NOT just a “fat old man disease.” If you're not screening every patient for sleep and airway issues, you're missing a huge piece of their overall health. Snoring, bruxism, and craniofacial anatomy are all connected, and understanding these links can transform the way you approach patient care. Key Takeaways: Mandibular advancement appliances are not a universal solution. While effective for some patients, they often fail to address the underlying causes of airway collapse. Craniofacial sleep medicine focuses on airway etiology, not just symptom control, by identifying why the mandible, tongue, and airway behave as they do during sleep. The cranial base plays a foundational role in facial growth, jaw position, and airway size, directly influencing sleep apnea risk. A retruded mandible is frequently due to developmental and epigenetic factors, rather than being an isolated mandibular issue. Sleep apnea has multiple endotypes—including craniofacial, neurologic, metabolic, and myopathic—requiring individualized treatment planning. Bruxism is not a reliable airway-opening mechanism and may be a primitive physiological response to hypoxia rather than a protective behavior. Tooth wear can be an early indicator of sleep-disordered breathing, and should prompt clinicians to screen beyond restorative concerns. Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS) can occur even when the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is low, particularly in non-obese patients with fatigue, pain, and poor sleep quality. Palatal expansion should be understood as a 3D craniofacial intervention, aimed at improving nasal airflow and airway function—not merely widening the dental arch. Effective care depends on an integrated, multidisciplinary approach, involving dentists, orthodontists, sleep physicians, ENTs, and myofunctional therapists.

Couple Shot Inside Their Home—Investigators Question the Story Tonight, we break down the murders of Spencer and Monique Tepe, and why this crime scene unraveled almost as soon as detectives walked through the door.” A respected dentist and his wife were both found shot to death inside their home.

But as investigators began to work the case, the evidence told a far darker story—one involving deception, planning, and a killer who wasn't a stranger at all.

Episode Description Most dentists think of compliance as a background concern—something administrative, abstract, or handled by "the office." In reality, it's one of the highest-risk, most overlooked areas of modern dental practice. In Part 1 of this two-part series, Dr. Melissa Seibert sits down with Evan Sampson, a healthcare attorney with over a decade of experience advising dentists and healthcare organizations on fraud, waste, abuse, regulatory compliance, and risk mitigation. Evan has served as General Counsel to a major dental support organization and held senior compliance leadership roles within the largest municipal hospital system in the United States. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on what compliance actually looks like in day-to-day dentistry—and why well-intentioned clinicians often put themselves at risk without realizing it. This conversation reframes clinical notes as legal evidence, not just charting formalities. Together, Dr. Seibert and Evan explore how common documentation habits—templated notes, vague progress entries, auto-populated language, and inconsistent coding—can quietly become liabilities during audits, payer disputes, or board complaints. You'll hear a candid breakdown of: What fraud, waste, and abuse actually look like in everyday dental practice (and why most of it is inadvertent) Why documentation and coding errors are among the most common sources of exposure for dentists The legal risks of upcoding, unbundling, and inaccurate procedure representation Why surgical vs. simple extraction coding is so frequently audited How "write it once and forget it" charting can come back years later—with real consequences The mindset shift dentists need: writing notes as if they will be read aloud in a courtroom Why the cover-up—or "fixing" notes improperly—is often worse than the original mistake How compliance, when done well, can actually reveal missed revenue and operational inefficiencies This episode isn't about fear-mongering. It's about clarity, ownership, and professional maturity. If you're a dentist who cares deeply about doing the right thing—clinically and ethically—this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about notes, coding, and responsibility. And this is just the foundation. Part 2 will go even deeper into consent, adverse events, and proactive strategies to protect yourself, your license, and your future. If you've ever thought: "I didn't know that could be a problem." "That's how we've always charted." "The front desk handles the coding." This episode is required listening.

Today, I'm joined by Fred Joyal—entrepreneur, former creative director, founder of 1‑800‑Dentist, author of Super Bold, and a speaker who teaches people how to build boldness as a life skill. Fred brings a fascinating perspective on the intersection of boldness and communication; especially how bold action can fuel confidence and elevate your ability to connect with others.In this episode, Fred explains how communication goes beyond mere information sharing, why boldness is essential in a world increasingly dominated by AI and remote work, and how practicing discomfort — like role‑playing or speaking in front of others — accelerates growth. We also explore voice techniques from his experience with vocal training, the power of “failure as information,” and practical ways to start strengthening your boldness muscle today.Let's dive in.Additional Resources:► Follow Communispond on LinkedIn for more communication skills tips: https://www.linkedin.com/company/communispond► Connect with Scott D'Amico on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottdamico/► Connect with Fred: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fredjoyal/► Learn more about Fred's work and buy his book: https://www.fredjoyal.com/ ► Subscribe to Communicast: https://communicast.simplecast.com/► Learn more about Communispond: https://www.communispond.com

High-income dentists are some of the best producers on the planet… but many are still financially fragile. One injury, one unexpected life event, one production dip—and the whole system starts to wobble. In this episode of Dentistry on Fire, I sit down with my friend Michael G. Isom (founder of Vault A.S. and co-author of What Would the Rockefellers Do?) to unpack the biggest money mistakes high earners make—and the systems that create real certainty. We talk about why “more income” doesn't automatically equal financial freedom, how your identity can get dangerously tied to production, and why that creates stress at home and in the practice. Then we break down the concept of being your own bank—a strategy focused on liquidity, protection, and control using cash value mechanics—so you're not dependent on a traditional bank when life happens. If you're a dentist who wants peace of mind, better decision-making, and a path to legacy, this episode will change how you see money. Why high-income earners can still be one setback away from crisisThe “money lie” that keeps dentists trapped in stress and overworkHow production swings can create an emotional roller coaster at homeWhat “be your own bank” actually means in simple termsCash value basics (explained in plain English) and why liquidity mattersHow policy loans work (and how they differ from bank loans)The protection/asset-defense angle most dentists never considerHow to build certainty so you can lead better—and live better 00:00 Intro: High-income dentists, fragile finances00:02 The biggest money lie high earners believe00:03 Michael's rock-bottom story + turning point00:13 Money pressure, identity, and leadership00:23 Shiny-object spending + boredom in practice00:30 Vision, purpose, and staying focused00:35 Production swings → stress at home00:41 What “Be Your Own Bank” means00:48 Cash value explained simply00:49 How policy loans work (vs banks)00:56 Real examples: using liquidity strategically01:01 One action to take this week + resources01:03 Best way to contact Michael01:04 Closing + legacy mindset #Dentistry #DentalPractice #FinancialFreedom #InfiniteBanking #WealthStrategy

Imagine this: your assistant is juggling a heavy salivator, a mouth full of water from high-speed drilling, a gagging patient motioning to sit up — all while trying to pass instruments and prep materials. It's stressful, it's messy, and it can impact both efficiency and outcomes. Now imagine there's a device that does the heavy lifting — it removes water, retracts soft tissue, and illuminates the field, all hands-free. Joining me today to talk about this game-changing side of dentistry is Shannon Pace-Brinker, an internationally recognized dental assistant and educator who's trained tens of thousands of dental professionals on restorative techniques, digital workflows, impressions, veneer cementation, and — of course — isolation.
