In this episode of The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, Kevin sits down with Curtis McKee, a recent graduate from Class 003 of the Tribe, for a grounded, powerful conversation about what real change actually looks like. Curtis is a traveling boilermaker from Canada, spending long stretches of time working remote camp jobs across northern British Columbia and Alberta, and he brings a rare combination of blue-collar practicality and deep inner development to the table.Curtis shares how his journey began with a single concept that hit him so hard he had to pull his truck over on the highway just to absorb it: buffering. Not the surface-level distractions themselves, but the deeper reason men reach for them. Like many men, Curtis thought he could numb stress and frustration with a drink or a dopamine hit, but he kept finding the same truth - it never works. And what shocked him most wasn't just that buffering was happening, but that no one had ever taught him how the mind actually functions.This episode dives into the difference between trying to control the external world and learning to control what you actually have power over: your internal experience. Curtis explains how mind management gave him something he hadn't felt in years - stability, clarity, and choice. Not because life became easier, but because he became more conscious. He describes a shift from drifting through life to taking ownership of his thoughts, emotions, and decisions, using the Model of Alignment to label what's happening inside and create intentional change.Kevin and Curtis also unpack something most men don't realize until later in life: this work must be taught, and it must be practiced. You don't just listen to a podcast and get fixed. You don't read one book and suddenly become unstoppable. Real transformation requires repetition, feedback, coaching, and community. Curtis shares how even one hour per week of meaningful conversation with like-minded brothers created a foundation of growth, especially when his everyday world was filled with surface-level talk and isolation.The conversation expands into Curtis' experience in the Tribe - why he chose to commit, how he balanced long workdays with intense study, and how he discovered something deeper about himself: he's called to guide others. The episode ends with the story of the Class 003 gathering in Mexico, including ceremony, reflection, challenge, and initiation - culminating in an ice bath that nearly broke him, and a plant medicine experience that revealed something simple, undeniable, and unforgettable:Everything he was seeking was already within him.If you're tired of drifting, tired of reacting, and ready to take ownership of your inner world, this episode will land.

The affidavit charging Michaell McKee with aggravated murder in the deaths of Spencer and Monique Tepe has been unsealed. What's inside reads like a chronicle of obsession—surveillance footage, stolen plates, threats spanning years, and digital silence during the murder window.Defense attorney Eric Faddis joins True Crime Today to analyze what this evidence means for both prosecution and defense.Surveillance footage places McKee in the Tepes' yard on December 6th or 7th. Spencer and Monique were in Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship game. That's not presence—that's reconnaissance. Faddis explains how pre-offense surveillance supports prior calculation and design charges.The threat evidence spans nearly a decade. Witnesses told investigators McKee said he could "kill her at any time," would "find her and buy the house right next to her," and that Monique "will always be his wife." Those statements came during and after their marriage. How do prosecutors introduce historical threats—and what challenges will the defense raise?Firearm specifications are unusual. The indictment charges automatic weapon or silencer-equipped firearm in the alternative. Faddis explains what that hedging signals and how it affects sentencing exposure.McKee's phone went silent from December 29th until after noon on December 30th. The murders occurred around 3:50 a.m. How do prosecutors frame digital absence as evidence of planning?Vehicle tracking connected a silver SUV to McKee's address and workplace. That vehicle appeared near the Tepe home displaying stolen plates. After arrest, investigators found fresh scrape marks where a distinctive sticker had been removed.The aggravated burglary charge is telling. No forced entry was found. Prosecutors have a theory about how McKee got inside.McKee pleaded not guilty and waived extradition.

Breaking today: The Franklin County Coroner has released the full autopsy reports for Spencer and Monique Tepe, the Columbus couple found shot to death in their Weinland Park home on December 30th. The findings are devastating. Spencer sustained seven gunshot wounds. Monique sustained nine. All sixteen wounds were to their upper bodies. Both had defensive injuries to their hands and arms — evidence they saw the attack coming and tried to fight back.The coroner determined both victims died within "seconds to minutes" of being shot. Pathologists recovered bullets described as "large caliber" from their bodies. The wound patterns — front-to-back and back-to-front trajectories — indicate both victims moved during the shooting. They tried to get away. The shooter kept firing until the magazine was empty.Michael McKee, Monique's ex-husband, has been charged with two counts of aggravated murder and has pleaded not guilty. Court documents allege he stalked the couple for weeks before the killings, entered their home while they attended the Big Ten Championship game, and used stolen license plates on the vehicle seen near their residence. Witnesses told police McKee had threatened Monique for years after their 2017 divorce, telling her he could "kill her at any time" and that she would "always be his wife."Today we break down what the autopsy reveals about the crime — and what the documented behavior pattern reveals about the psychology of the man accused of committing it.#TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #TepeAutopsy #TrueCrimeToday #ColumbusOhio #AggravatedMurder #DomesticViolence #BreakingNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Monique Tepe allegedly knew for eight years that her ex-husband had threatened to kill her. She divorced Michael McKee in 2017 after just seven months of marriage. Witnesses told investigators he strangled her, forced unwanted sex, told her he could end her life. She never filed a public report. She rebuilt everything — new husband, two kids, a life. On December 30th, she and Spencer were found dead in their Columbus home. McKee pleaded not guilty despite surveillance footage, a ballistics match, and documented threats.Mica Miller made fourteen police reports in her final months. Reported GPS trackers, harassment, fear for her life. Told her family if she ended up with a bullet in her head, it wasn't her. Two days after serving Pastor JP Miller divorce papers, she was dead. Ruled suicide. JP just pleaded not guilty to federal cyberstalking while the indictment alleges tracking devices, a nude photo posted without consent, fifty-plus contacts in one day, and lies to investigators.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of "The Minds of Mass Killers" and a DV survivor herself — connects these cases. She explains the psychological burden of living under threat, why victims don't report, how coercive controllers weaponize systems against their targets, and the forensic profile of defendants who treat prosecution as competition. Two women. Two failures.

The unsealed affidavit in the McKee case documents what prosecutors describe as nearly a decade of alleged obsession with Monique Tepe. Surveillance footage shows Michael McKee in the Tepes' yard days before the murders—while Spencer and Monique were out of town. Witnesses describe years of threats. Stolen plates. A phone that went dark during the killing window.Defense attorney Eric Faddis analyzes what this evidence means for the prosecution's case and where the defense might push back.The surveillance footage is central. McKee captured on camera walking through the victims' property while they attended the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. That's pre-offense reconnaissance, and Faddis explains how prosecutors use that to establish prior calculation and design.The threats span years. Witnesses told investigators McKee said he could "kill her at any time," would "find her and buy the house right next to her," and that Monique "will always be his wife." How does that historical evidence get introduced—and what threshold does the prosecution need to meet?Firearm specifications are charged in the alternative: automatic weapon or silencer. The weapon hasn't been recovered. Faddis walks through what those specifications signal and how they affect sentencing.Digital evidence creates circumstantial support. McKee's phone showed no activity from December 29th through noon on December 30th—covering the 3:50 a.m. estimated time of death. How do prosecutors frame silence as guilt?The vehicle evidence is layered. A silver SUV tracked to McKee appeared near the Tepe home displaying stolen plates. After arrest, scrape marks showed a distinctive sticker had been removed.No forced entry was found.

Sixteen bullets. Two victims. Two children left crying in a house with their dead parents. The autopsy reports for Spencer and Monique Tepe are now public — and they paint a brutal picture of what happened inside that Weinland Park bedroom on December 30th. Every wound was to the upper body. Both victims had defensive injuries. The trajectories show they moved, turned, tried to escape. The shooting continued anyway.This episode breaks down the forensic signature of the crime and what it tells us about the psychology of the person accused of committing it. Michael McKee — Monique's ex-husband — allegedly waited eight and a half years after their divorce before allegedly executing her and her new husband. Court documents describe years of alleged threats, stalking behavior, and an obsession that never faded. He allegedly told her she would "always be his wife" and that he could "kill her at any time."Forensic psychologists call this pattern a "grievance collector" — someone who catalogs wounds to their ego and nurtures them for years until the grievance becomes justification. McKee's alleged behavior fits this profile precisely. The surveillance weeks before the murders. The stolen license plates. The phone going dark the night of the killings. The sticker scraped off his vehicle afterward.What makes this case uniquely disturbing is the combination of explosive violence and meticulous control. A full magazine emptied, but confined to the bedroom. Children left unharmed but orphaned. And a suspect who allegedly drove home and went back to work. That's not rage. That's architecture.#MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #TepeCase #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #ForensicPsychology #GrievanceCollector #ColumbusHomicide #DomesticViolenceMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

One woman allegedly endured eight years of death threats before she and her husband were killed in their Columbus home. The other made fourteen police reports, filed for divorce, and was dead two days later — ruled a suicide. Different states. Different circumstances. The same pattern running underneath: women who tried to survive, systems that failed them, and men who allegedly believed consequences were for other people.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent thirty years treating domestic violence survivors. She's also a survivor — her ex-husband died by revenge suicide after she asked for divorce. She brings clinical expertise and lived experience to both cases. For the McKee-Tepe murders, she explains what it costs to function under direct threat for years, why Monique never filed a public report, and the forensic psychology of defendants who plead not guilty despite substantial evidence. For the JP Miller case, she breaks down how coercive controllers weaponize mental health systems, grooming, and institutional failures to isolate and discredit their victims until there's no escape route left.This is the full conversation — victim psychology, defendant psychology, and the systemic gaps that let both cases happen. Scott addresses what survivors actually face, what courtroom behaviors reveal about how defendants allegedly saw their victims, and why South Carolina still has no standalone coercive control law. Two women dead. Two systems that failed. The connection isn't coincidence — it's design.#MoniqueTepe #MicaMiller #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott #MichaelMcKee #JPMiller #CoerciveControl #DomesticViolence #SystemFailure #MindsOfMassKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Michael McKee is charged with aggravated murder in the deaths of Spencer and Monique Tepe. The unsealed affidavit details what prosecutors describe as eight years of obsession—surveillance footage, stolen plates, years of threats, and a cell phone that went dark during the murder window.Defense attorney Eric Faddis joins Hidden Killers Live to break down the prosecution's strategy and identify where the defense has room to challenge.The surveillance evidence is striking. Footage shows McKee walking through the Tepes' yard on December 6th or 7th while the couple was at the Big Ten Championship game. Pre-offense reconnaissance supports aggravated murder charges.Witnesses described threats spanning years. McKee allegedly said he could "kill her at any time" and that Monique "will always be his wife." Those statements came during and after their marriage—long before the murders. Faddis explains how prosecutors introduce historical threat evidence and what objections defense attorneys raise.The firearm specifications—automatic weapon or silencer, charged in the alternative—suggest the weapon hasn't been recovered. What does that hedging tell us about the investigation?McKee's phone showed no activity from December 29th until after noon December 30th. The murders occurred around 3:50 a.m. on December 30th. How do prosecutors argue digital silence equals consciousness of guilt?Vehicle evidence connects multiple points. A silver SUV with a distinctive sticker was tracked to McKee's address and workplace. The same vehicle appeared near the Tepe home on surveillance displaying stolen plates. After arrest, fresh scrape marks showed the sticker had been removed.No forced entry at the Tepe home.

Today on Hidden Killers Live, defense attorney Bob Motta examines two major murder cases that are dominating headlines — the Brendan Banfield conviction and the Michael McKee arrest in the Monique Tepe double homicide.Brendan Banfield is going to prison for life. The former federal agent was convicted of aggravated murder after the jury believed his au pair over his testimony. She got murder dropped to manslaughter and walked free the day she testified against him. The defense called her bought and paid for. Twelve jurors didn't care. Bob breaks down why the defense strategy failed and whether Banfield's decision to take the stand sealed his fate.Then we examine the appeal. Banfield's team will argue the witness deal was too coercive, that evidence was buried, that the digital forensics investigation was compromised. Bob explains each argument and gives an honest assessment of the odds. The "harmless error" doctrine kills most appeals, and Banfield's team faces that mountain.Finally, we turn to Michael McKee, charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband. The evidence looks damning — surveillance footage, phone records, witnesses saying Monique told them McKee had threatened her for years. But Bob explains what defense attorneys see that the public doesn't. The reliability problems with video evidence. The hearsay challenges. The eight-year gap between the divorce and the murders that cuts both ways.This is comprehensive defense analysis of two active murder cases from an attorney who won't sugarcoat the odds.#BrendanBanfield #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #TrueCrimeToday #BobMotta #BanfieldVerdict #TepeMurders #AggravatedMurder #DefenseAttorney #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Surveillance footage. A ballistics match. A cell phone that went dark during the murder window. Years of documented threats. Michael McKee looked at all of it and pleaded not guilty. He waived his bail hearing but reserved the right to revisit it. That's not desperation — that's calculation.Shavaun Scott wrote "The Minds of Mass Killers" and has spent thirty years evaluating violent offenders in forensic settings. She explains what's typically driving a not guilty plea when the evidence looks this strong — legally, psychologically, or both. There's a personality profile that consistently shows up in defendants who treat prosecution as intellectual competition rather than moral reckoning. Bundy performed. Peterson observed. Watts calculated. The quality of detachment in the courtroom isn't random.McKee is a surgeon. Over a decade of elite training. He's operated on human bodies under extreme pressure. Scott analyzes whether that professional background feeds into the kind of compartmentalization that allows someone to sit calmly while facing murder charges. And she addresses the theory that won't go away: the detachment that lets someone appear unaffected at trial is the same detachment that allegedly allowed them to pull the trigger.

Michael McKee entered a not guilty plea to two counts of aggravated murder in the deaths of Spencer and Monique Tepe. On paper, this might seem routine — defendants plead not guilty every day. But when you look at what investigators say they have, the psychology behind that plea becomes the story.According to court documents: surveillance footage tracking McKee's vehicle arriving in Columbus before the murders and leaving after. A firearm recovered from his Chicago condo that police say matches crime scene evidence. A cell phone that showed zero activity during the exact hours prosecutors allege the Tepes were killed. Footage from weeks earlier reportedly showing McKee in the Tepes' yard while they attended the Big Ten Championship. And witness statements describing years of alleged threats — including that he could "kill her at any time."So why fight?Today we examine the "game player" psychology — a pattern seen in defendants like Scott Peterson, Chris Watts, and Ted Bundy who faced crushing evidence but approached their trials as competitions rather than reckonings. For these defendants, other people were never fully real. The courtroom isn't punishment. It's the final level.If McKee fits this profile, his not guilty plea isn't denial. It's the only move left for someone who allegedly spent years believing he was smarter than every system designed to stop him.The trial will determine guilt or innocence. But the psychology may have been visible all along.McKee is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.#TrueCrimeToday #MichaelMcKee #TepeHomicide #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #NotGuiltyPlea #CriminalPsychology #ColumbusOhio #AggravatedMurder #DomesticViolenceJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/​Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Michael McKee didn't negotiate. He didn't collapse. With surveillance footage, a ballistics match, and years of documented threats on the table, he pleaded not guilty and waived his bail hearing while reserving the right to revisit it. That's a chess move from a defendant who apparently thinks he can win.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of "The Minds of Mass Killers" — has spent three decades studying violent offenders. She explains the psychology of defendants who refuse to fold. Ted Bundy represented himself. Scott Peterson watched his trial like it was happening to someone else. Chris Watts tried to manipulate homicide detectives while his family's bodies were still being recovered. These aren't isolated behaviors — they're patterns.What is narcissistic grandiosity and where does it come from? Is it developed or innate? McKee completed over a decade of elite medical training as a surgeon. Scott analyzes whether that professional background — the ability to compartmentalize, to view complex situations as problems to be solved, to operate with precision under extreme pressure — potentially feeds into the kind of detachment we see in certain courtroom defendants. For someone like this, what does "winning" even mean if conviction is likely? And as this case moves toward trial, what courtroom behaviors would confirm we're dealing with this psychological profile?#MichaelMcKee #TrueCrimeToday #ShavaunScott #NotGuiltyPlea #TedBundy #ScottPeterson #ChrisWatts #NarcissisticGrandiosity #TepeMurders #ForensicPsychologyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers for a deep examination of two major murder cases — the Brendan Banfield conviction and the Michael McKee arrest in the Tepe murders.We start with Banfield. The former IRS agent just got convicted of aggravated murder in the deaths of his wife Christine and Ryan Banfield. The jury deliberated nine hours and came back guilty on everything. They believed the au pair — the woman who got murder dropped to manslaughter and walked free in exchange for her testimony. The defense hammered her credibility. It didn't matter.Bob breaks down exactly where the defense went wrong. The strategy of attacking the prosecution's story without offering an alternative. Banfield's decision to take the stand and tell the jury this whole thing was "absolutely crazy." The DNA that wasn't on the knife. The digital forensics fight that went nowhere. Every decision that led to this verdict.Then we examine the appeal. Life without parole in Virginia means exactly what it sounds like. Banfield is 40. Unless something changes, he dies in prison. Bob explains what his appellate team will argue — the coercive witness deal, the potentially buried evidence, the reassigned forensic investigator — and why most of it probably won't work.Finally, we shift to Michael McKee, charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband. Bob examines the surveillance footage, the hearsay testimony, and the phone evidence prosecutors are relying on. What looks like an open-and-shut case has complications a defense attorney will exploit.#BrendanBanfield #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #BobMotta #BanfieldAppeal #TepeMurders #AggravatedMurder #HiddenKillers #DefenseAttorney #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Michael McKee faces two counts of aggravated murder for the shooting deaths of Spencer and Monique Tepe. The evidence against him — according to court filings and police statements — includes surveillance footage, ballistics evidence, a cell phone that went dark during the murder window, and years of documented threats against his ex-wife Monique.He pleaded not guilty.This episode explores a psychological pattern that emerges in cases where evidence is overwhelming but defendants refuse to fold. Forensic psychologists call it narcissistic grandiosity with antisocial features. We call it the game player. These are defendants who view prosecution not as consequence but as competition — the final arena to prove they're the smartest person in the room.We examine the parallels to Scott Peterson's detached courtroom demeanor, Chris Watts treating investigators like marks he could con, and Ted Bundy transforming his trial into performance art. The common thread: a fundamental inability to view other people as fully real. Victims become obstacles. Murder becomes a move. Trial becomes the championship round.According to the unsealed affidavit, McKee allegedly told Monique he could "kill her at any time," that he would "find her and buy the house next to her," and that she would "always be his wife." If prosecutors' allegations are accurate, the game started long before December 30th, 2025.The same psychology that allows someone to treat their murder trial as a puzzle may be the same psychology that allowed them to allegedly commit the crime.McKee is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Surveillance footage placing him at the scene. A NIBIN ballistics match. A cell phone that went dark during the murder window. Years of documented threats against his ex-wife. Michael McKee looked at the state's case and pleaded not guilty anyway. He waived his bail hearing but reserved the right to revisit it later — a calculated procedural move, not a white flag.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott wrote "The Minds of Mass Killers" and has spent thirty years evaluating violent offenders in forensic settings. She explains why certain defendants refuse to fold even when the evidence looks insurmountable. There's a profile. Ted Bundy represented himself and cross-examined witnesses about his own alleged murders. Scott Peterson watched his trial like it was happening to someone else. Chris Watts tried to manipulate homicide detectives while his family's bodies were still being recovered. The courtroom detachment isn't random — it's diagnostic.McKee is a vascular surgeon.

According to the unsealed affidavit in the Tepe murder case, witnesses told investigators Michael McKee strangled Monique during their seven-month marriage, forced unwanted sex, and told her he could end her life whenever he wanted. She divorced him in 2017. She never filed a public police report. She never sought a protective order. For eight years, she carried the weight of knowing someone had promised to kill her — while rebuilding her entire life, marrying Spencer, and raising two children.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent over thirty years working with domestic violence survivors in shelters, clinical settings, and courtrooms. She's also a survivor herself — her ex-husband died by revenge suicide after she asked for divorce. She understands what living under direct threat costs in ways that clinical training alone cannot capture.Strangulation is one of the most significant lethality predictors in DV research. If the allegations are accurate, Monique was in extreme danger from the moment she left McKee. She likely knew it. Her family knew something was wrong — Rob Misleh said publicly they didn't fully understand the threats were real until it was too late. Scott explains why there's always a gap between what victims communicate and what the people who love them actually hear, what constant threat assessment does to someone over nearly a decade, and why so many survivors never report even when they know they're in danger.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #HiddenKillersLive #DomesticViolence #ShavaunScott #Strangulation #CoerciveControl #TepeMurders #DVSurvivor #DeathThreatsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two major murder cases. One defense attorney. Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, Bob Motta examines the Brendan Banfield conviction and the Michael McKee arrest — and takes your questions about both.Brendan Banfield just got convicted of aggravated murder. The former federal agent is facing life without parole after the jury believed the au pair over him. She walked free with time served. He's going to die in prison. Bob breaks down where the defense strategy failed, whether testifying hurt Banfield, and what his appeal chances actually look like.The au pair deal, the buried evidence angle, the digital forensics investigator who got reassigned when his findings didn't match the prosecution's theory — we're examining every argument Banfield's appellate team will make. Bob doesn't sugarcoat the odds. The "harmless error" doctrine kills most appeals, and getting past that barrier is nearly impossible.Then we shift to Michael McKee, charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband. The surveillance footage looks damning. The phone records look damning. Witnesses say Monique told them McKee had threatened her for years. But what does a defense attorney actually see when they look at this evidence?Bob breaks down the reliability problems with video identification, the hearsay challenges prosecutors will face, and the eight-year gap between the divorce and the murders that complicates the premeditation argument.Join us live for comprehensive analysis of both cases — and bring your questions.#BrendanBanfield #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #HiddenKillersLive #BobMotta #BanfieldVerdict #TepeMurders #TrueCrimeLive #DefenseAttorney #LivePodcastJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three cases. Three stages. One expert who's spent thirty years reading dangerous people. Robin Dreeke, former FBI special agent and head of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, breaks down the behavioral evidence in the McKee, Greenberg, and Banfield cases. Michael McKee allegedly threatened his ex-wife Monique Tepe for eight years before the December 30th killings — Robin explains what the language of ownership reveals and why the reconnaissance trip matters. Ellen Greenberg was found with 20 stab wounds and ruled a suicide — now federal investigators are reportedly probing whether officials committed crimes. Robin explains how corruption cases get built. Brendan Banfield called the murder accusation "absolutely crazy" — then his alibi collapsed and prosecutors showed love letters to the au pair. Robin analyzes what the defendant's testimony actually revealed.

Michael McKee is in custody, charged with the aggravated murder of his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband. The affidavit paints a dark picture — surveillance footage, a vehicle traced to McKee, witnesses saying Monique told them he'd been threatening her for years. The public has already made up its mind.Today on True Crime Today, defense attorney Bob Motta examines what a courtroom will actually see when this case goes to trial. The surveillance footage everyone's treating as conclusive — how reliable is it? Video evidence isn't as straightforward as TV makes it look. Bob explains the difference between footage that looks damning and footage that proves guilt beyond reasonable doubt.The hearsay testimony is another issue. Monique reportedly told friends that McKee threatened her. She's dead. She can't testify to any of that. Prosecutors will try to get those statements in through hearsay exceptions, but defense attorneys have ways to challenge them. Bob breaks down how that fight will play out.McKee's phone allegedly went silent during the time of the murders. It's the kind of evidence that makes headlines, but Bob explains why it's more complicated than it sounds. Phones die, people forget them, signals drop. Digital evidence that seems airtight often isn't.There's also the eight-year gap between the divorce and the murders. No restraining orders we know of, no recent incidents documented. Does that help McKee's defense or undermine it? And what does "aggravated murder" actually require prosecutors to prove? Bob explains the difference between "he did it" and "he planned to do it."#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #TepeMurders #TrueCrimeToday #BobMotta #AggravatedMurder #SurveillanceEvidence #DefenseAttorney #DoubleHomicide #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Robin Dreeke spent thirty years in the FBI reading behavior, building cases, and getting people to reveal themselves. Today he tackles three major cases in one comprehensive interview. The Michael McKee case: the surgeon allegedly told his ex-wife Monique Tepe he could kill her "at any time" — eight years after their divorce. Robin explains the behavioral profile of possessive obsession and what the reconnaissance trip to her home signals. The Ellen Greenberg case: the feds are reportedly investigating whether people who handled her death committed crimes. Robin breaks down how corruption cases unfold and what makes people flip. The Brendan Banfield case: the defendant called the accusation "absolutely crazy" and then his alibi fell apart. Robin analyzes what the testimony, the letters, and the blood evidence reveal. Three different cases at three different stages — all examined through the lens of someone who's spent decades understanding how killers think, how institutions cover up, and how the truth eventually surfaces.#RobinDreeke #FBI #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #EllenGreenberg #BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #TrueCrime #BehavioralAnalysis #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Michael McKee has been charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband. The surveillance footage, the phone records, the witnesses claiming Monique said he'd threatened her for years — it all looks like an open-and-shut case. The public has already decided he's guilty.But defense attorney Bob Motta looks at cases differently. His job is to examine evidence the way a courtroom will, not the way cable news does. And when he looks at this case, he sees questions that haven't been answered yet.The surveillance footage is one thing. Prosecutors are leaning hard on video showing McKee's car allegedly coming and going, him supposedly walking through their yard weeks earlier. Bob explains what people get wrong about video evidence — resolution issues, identification problems, the difference between "looks like" and "proof beyond reasonable doubt."Then there's the hearsay. Monique allegedly told friends that McKee threatened her. She's not alive to testify to that. Can prosecutors just use what other people say she said? Bob breaks down how hearsay exceptions work, when those statements get in, and what a defense attorney does to challenge them.The phone going silent during the murders sounds damning. But digital evidence is more complicated than prosecutors make it seem. Phones die. People leave them places. Bob explains the other side of that story.Eight years passed between the divorce and the murders. No restraining orders that we know of, no recent documented incidents. Does that gap help McKee or hurt him?

Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, defense attorney Bob Motta examines what a courtroom will actually see — and takes your questions about the case.The surveillance footage is being treated like a smoking gun. But Bob explains what people get wrong about video evidence. Resolution matters. Angles matter. Identification from grainy footage is more complicated than prosecutors make it seem. The difference between "that looks like him" and "proof beyond reasonable doubt" is where cases get won or lost.Then there's the hearsay problem.

The Toronto Maple Leafs hit the Olympic Break on a three-game win streak, and Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee debate whether the recent stretch might force the organisation to reconsider selling at the deadline. Then, they look back on the Leafs' win over the Oilers and discuss Anthony Stolarz's stellar outing, the team's play without Morgan Rielly in the lineup, Brandon Carlo's fight after hitting Connor McDavid, and more. They also discuss whether a buy-out is on the table for Rielly, Darren Raddysh as a potential offseason target, and Bobby McMann's trade value.

Eight years after their divorce, Michael McKee allegedly told Monique Tepe he could kill her at any time. Now he's charged with her murder — and the murder of her husband Spencer. Robin Dreeke, former FBI special agent and behavioral analysis expert, breaks down the unsealed affidavit in the case against the Illinois vascular surgeon accused of driving 900 miles to execute the couple in their Weinland Park home on December 30th. The documents reveal alleged strangulation and sexual assault during the marriage, years of threatening statements reported by witnesses, and a surveillance trip to their property while they were at a football game three weeks before the killings. McKee faces four counts of aggravated murder with firearm specifications including the use of a suppressor. Robin explains what the behavioral pattern tells us about obsession that doesn't fade, why high professional intelligence doesn't translate to criminal sophistication, and what Monique's gut reaction at halftime of that Big Ten Championship game tells us about how victims sense danger before they can prove it.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TepeMurders #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimeToday #ColumbusOhio #FBI #DomesticViolence #AggravatedMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The probable cause affidavit in the Michael McKee case has been unsealed, and the details are damning. According to court documents filed in Franklin County, McKee allegedly stalked his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer for weeks before their December 30th murders—and drove 900 miles round trip in just 17 hours to carry out the killings.Here's what we now know from the affidavit:McKee allegedly entered the Tepe property on December 6th while the couple was at the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. Surveillance video captured him on the property for several hours. Monique left the game at halftime, reportedly upset about something involving her ex-husband.Witnesses told investigators McKee had threatened Monique for years, allegedly telling her he could "kill her at any time" and that she would "always be his wife." At least one witness reported allegations of strangulation and forced sex during their marriage.On December 29th, McKee allegedly left his cell phone at the hospital where he worked in Rockford, Illinois. That phone showed no activity for 17 hours—the exact window needed to drive 450 miles to Columbus, commit the murders at approximately 3:50 a.m., and return.Investigators tracked a silver SUV with a distinctive window sticker to McKee. After the murders, fresh scrape marks appeared where the sticker had been. A firearm found at his Chicago condo was matched through ballistics to the crime scene.McKee was arrested 11 days later at a Chick-fil-A near his workplace. He has pleaded not guilty to four counts of aggravated murder and one count of aggravated burglary.#TrueCrimeToday #MichaelMcKee #TepeCase #BreakingNews #ColumbusOhio #AffidavitUnsealed #AggravatedMurder #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #DomesticViolenceJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down two cases where the warning signs were allegedly clear — and no one acted.The Michael McKee case: how investigators tracked a surgeon across state lines in eleven days using surveillance footage, ballistics databases, and digital forensics. Then the behavioral profile — eight years of alleged death threats, strangulation allegations, and pre-offense surveillance before Monique and Spencer Tepe were murdered.The WSU lawsuit: 13 formal complaints about Bryan Kohberger's stalking behavior in one semester. A professor's warning that he would become a predator. Female students creating their own protection systems. And an institution that allegedly had threat assessment protocols and didn't use them — until four students were dead.Coffindaffer analyzes what both cases reveal about how systems fail the people they're designed to protect.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #DomesticViolence #IdahoMurders #InstitutionalFailure #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For eight years after their divorce, Michael McKee allegedly refused to let go. According to witnesses cited in court documents, he told Monique Tepe he could "kill her at any time." That he would "find her and buy the house right next to her." That she would always be his wife. She told friends. She moved on. She remarried. She had children. And according to investigators, he was watching the entire time.The unsealed affidavit in the Spencer and Monique Tepe murder case reveals a pattern of alleged stalking, threats, and obsession that preceded the December 30th killings by years—and intensified in the weeks before they were found shot to death in their Columbus home.On December 6th, while the Tepes were at the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis, surveillance video allegedly captured McKee entering their property. Monique left the game at halftime, upset about something involving her ex-husband. Three weeks later, she and Spencer were dead.This is the hidden killer profile that domestic violence experts warn about: the ex who won't accept the end. The one who sees rejection as theft. The one who believes ownership doesn't expire with a divorce decree. McKee allegedly exhibited every warning sign—and according to court records, Monique knew it. She told people. She was afraid.This episode examines the psychology of obsessive ex-partners, why restraining orders often fail, and what the Tepe case reveals about the limits of doing everything right when someone refuses to let you go.#HiddenKillers #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #DomesticViolence #Stalking #ObsessiveEx #TrueCrime #ColumbusOhio #CoerciveControlJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The affidavit is unsealed and the details are damning. Michael McKee allegedly told Monique Tepe he could kill her "at any time," that he would find her and "buy the house right next to her," and that "she will always be his wife." This was eight years after their divorce. Robin Dreeke, former head of the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, breaks down the psychology of possessive violence — what these specific statements reveal about McKee's mindset, why the eight-year timeline is behaviorally significant, and what the December 6th reconnaissance trip to their property tells us about premeditation versus impulse. Documents allege McKee was spotted on surveillance entering the Tepe home while Spencer and Monique were at the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis — and he stayed for several hours. Monique left that game at halftime, upset about something involving her ex-husband. She sensed it. Robin explains how victims develop that gut-level awareness before they can point to concrete evidence — and why the standard safety playbook sometimes isn't enough when dealing with someone who refuses to accept that a relationship is over.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TepeMurders #RobinDreeke #FBIAgent #TrueCrime #ColumbusOhio #HiddenKillersLive #DomesticViolenceJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Strangulation allegations. Death threats. Statements that she would "always be his wife." Surveillance footage allegedly showing him at her home three weeks before her murder. Michael McKee is a board-certified surgeon who maintained medical licenses across multiple states while allegedly fixating on his ex-wife for eight years after their divorce.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer analyzes the behavioral profile — what possessive language reveals about ownership mentality, why strangulation is the number one predictor of future lethality, and how someone with McKee's professional success allegedly hid this level of obsession.We examine why threats like this go unreported, what systemic gaps allow the pattern to continue, and what options actually exist for someone trying to escape an ex-partner they believe is capable of killing them.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #DomesticViolence #Stalking #Strangulation #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #TrueCrimeToday #IntimatePartnerViolence #SystemicFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

New court documents in the Spencer and Monique Tepe murder case reveal disturbing allegations about what Monique may have known before December 30th. According to the unsealed affidavit, witnesses told detectives that Michael McKee — Monique's ex-husband — allegedly threatened to kill her, told her she'd "always be his wife," and was captured on surveillance at her Columbus home while she was out of town. Friends say she left the Big Ten Championship game at halftime, upset about something involving McKee. Three weeks later, both she and Spencer were dead. Today we're asking the hard question: If she knew — why didn't she report it? And would it have mattered? We break down Ohio stalking laws, the psychology of why victims don't report, and what the system would have actually done if she had called.

The Michael McKee case presents a masterclass in forensic investigation. A suspect who allegedly created an 18-hour digital blackout. Stolen license plates from two states. A vehicle tracked through neighborhood surveillance footage. A firearm allegedly matched through a national database. And an arrest across state lines in just eleven days.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer walks us through how investigators pieced together a case spanning Columbus, Chicago, and Rockford without a single eyewitness. She explains NIBIN ballistics methodology, how multi-jurisdictional investigations function in practice, and why the indictment's firearm suppressor allegation may be the most damning evidence of premeditation prosecutors have.This is how law enforcement builds a double murder case from digital breadcrumbs and forensic science.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TrueCrimeToday #FBI #NIBINBallistics #ColumbusOhio #DoubleHomicide #JenniferCoffindaffer #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Monique Tepe left the Big Ten Championship game at halftime, upset about "something involving her ex-husband." She was 200 miles away in Indianapolis when surveillance allegedly captured Michael McKee at her Columbus home on December 6th, 2025. According to the Columbus Dispatch, video showed him going into the home and leaving "a few hours later." Twenty-four days later, Monique and her husband Dr. Spencer Tepe were found shot to death in their second-floor bedroom. Their two young children—ages 1 and 4—were asleep in the house, unharmed. A newly unsealed affidavit details eight years of alleged threats. Witnesses told investigators McKee said he could "kill her at any time," that he would "find her and buy the house right next to her," that "she will always be his wife." These aren't the words of heartbreak. They're the words of ownership. Witnesses also told investigators that during the marriage, McKee allegedly strangled Monique and forced unwanted sex on her. Strangulation is the single greatest predictor of future lethality in domestic violence cases. Yet Columbus police confirmed there were no prior reports filed. No restraining orders. Nothing on paper. McKee, a vascular surgeon, was arrested at a Rockford Chick-fil-A eleven days after the murders. He's pleaded not guilty to four counts of aggravated murder and one count of aggravated burglary. If convicted, he faces life in prison. This episode examines the psychology of someone who refuses to accept that a relationship has ended, and the brutal reality that doing everything right—leaving, divorcing, rebuilding—doesn't always protect you from someone who never recognized your right to leave. December 6th wasn't the start. It was the final confirmation that he could reach her whenever he wanted.#MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #MichaelMcKee #UnsealedAffidavit #BigTenChampionship #DomesticViolence #TepeMurders #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimeToday #AggravatedMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Michael McKee allegedly drove 350 miles from Chicago to Columbus, executed his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer, and drove back — all while his cell phone showed zero activity for 18 hours. Investigators say he used stolen license plates from Ohio and Arizona. He allegedly kept the murder weapon in his condo for eleven days. And police still caught him.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down how investigators built this case from surveillance footage, digital forensics, and a national ballistics database match. We examine the multi-jurisdictional coordination between four law enforcement agencies and why this case moved from bodies discovered to suspect arrested faster than anyone expected.Coffindaffer explains what a phone "going dark" signals to investigators, how stolen plates complicate vehicle tracking, and what the firearm suppressor allegation tells us about the level of premeditation prosecutors believe they can prove.

Newly unsealed court documents reveal the chilling psychology allegedly behind the murders of Spencer and Monique Tepe. According to witnesses who spoke with investigators, Michael McKee made three statements to Monique during and after their marriage: that he could "kill her at any time," that he would "find her and buy the house right next to her," and that "she will always be his wife." These aren't the words of heartbreak. They're the words of ownership. The affidavit also reveals that surveillance allegedly captured McKee at the Tepes' Columbus home on December 6th, 2025—three weeks before the murders—while Spencer and Monique were 200 miles away at the Big Ten Championship game. According to the Columbus Dispatch, video showed him going into the home and leaving "a few hours later." Monique found out. She left the game at halftime, upset about something involving her ex-husband. Twenty-four days later, she and Spencer were found shot to death in their second-floor bedroom. Their two young children were asleep in the house, unharmed. Witnesses told investigators that during the marriage, McKee allegedly strangled Monique and forced unwanted sex on her. Strangulation is the single greatest predictor of future lethality in domestic violence cases. Yet Columbus police confirmed there were no prior reports filed. No restraining orders. Nothing on paper. McKee has pleaded not guilty to four counts of aggravated murder and one count of aggravated burglary.

Two bodies discovered in a Columbus, Ohio home on December 30th. Eleven days later, a vascular surgeon is in custody 350 miles away. No eyewitnesses. No forced entry. A suspect who allegedly went dark on his cell phone for 18 hours and used stolen license plates from two different states. How did investigators connect the dots this fast?Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the forensic architecture of this case — the surveillance footage analysis that first identified Michael McKee's vehicle, the NIBIN ballistics database that allegedly linked a firearm found in his Chicago condo to the crime scene, and the multi-jurisdictional coordination between Columbus Police, FBI, Chicago PD, and Illinois authorities that culminated in an arrest in Rockford.We examine what it means when a suspect's phone shows zero activity during a murder window. Coffindaffer explains how investigators reconstruct movements when someone has deliberately created a digital gap. We dig into the stolen Ohio and Arizona plates allegedly used on McKee's vehicle and what that level of counter-surveillance tells investigators about premeditation.The indictment includes firearm specifications alleging either an automatic weapon or a suppressor — charged in the alternative. Why would prosecutors structure charges that way? What does it signal about the evidence they're holding?This case moved from discovery to arrest faster than most homicides involving a single jurisdiction. Coffindaffer walks us through what factors determine whether a case like this resolves quickly or goes cold — and why the forensic trail McKee allegedly left behind may have sealed his fate before investigators even knew his name.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #ColumbusOhioMurder #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #NIBINBallistics #TrueCrime #DoubleHomicide #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Court documents paint a picture that extends far beyond December 30th, 2025. Michael McKee allegedly told Monique he could "kill her at any time," that he would "find her and buy the house right next to her," and that she would "always be his wife." Witnesses described strangulation and forced sex during their marriage. Surveillance footage allegedly captured him at her Columbus home three weeks before her murder — while she was 200 miles away at a football game.The divorce was finalized in 2017. There's no record of criminal charges, restraining orders, or intervention in the eight years that followed. Then Monique and Spencer Tepe were found dead.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the behavioral warning signs. She explains what possessive language reveals about how McKee allegedly viewed the relationship, why strangulation is the strongest predictor of future lethality, and how high-functioning professionals hide this kind of obsessive violence. We examine how Monique's remarriage and children may have functioned as triggers — and why the system consistently fails people in her position.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TepeMurders #DomesticViolence #Stalking #FBI #JenniferCoffindaffer #Strangulation #IntimatePartnerViolenceJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Jury selection is approaching, and defense attorneys have renewed their push to move the trial out of Summit County after survey data showed that more than 85% of respondents recognized the case, with about 60% following it closely.The state has filed a response, arguing it satisfied its Giglio disclosure obligations and accusing the defense of mischaracterizing witness-communication issues and creating unnecessary publicity shortly before trial.Michael McKee, is charged with multiple counts of aggravated murder and burglary in the killings of Spencer and Monique Tepe. We read through the probable-cause affidavit, including welfare-check discoveries, prior abuse allegations, surveillance footage linking a distinctive vehicle to the scene, and phone-location data showing long gaps in activity during the time of the homicidesAdditional details include alleged stalking weeks earlier, license-plate swaps, and the seizure of an SUV at McKee's workplace.Links: Kouri Richins Defense FilingMichael McKee booking videoMichael McKee arraignmentBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/pretty-lies-and-alibis--4447192/support.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

The choice of attorney tells you everything about how a case is going to be fought. Michael McKee just hired Diane Menashe—the defense attorney who walked Dr. William Husel out of a Columbus courtroom after fourteen murder charges. Every single count. Not guilty. She called one witness. She also kept cop-killer Quentin Smith off death row. Now she's defending the vascular surgeon accused of murdering Monique Tepe and Dr. Spencer Tepe in their Columbus home on December 30th. McKee pleaded not guilty Friday to four counts of aggravated murder. The evidence police have described is substantial: ballistics allegedly linking a weapon from McKee's property to shell casings at the scene, vehicle tracking showing the 325-mile drive from Columbus to Illinois and back, surveillance footage allegedly showing McKee in the alley behind the Tepe home, a firearm suppressor, and no forced entry. So how does Menashe attack a case that looks this overwhelming? Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down her likely strategy. The ballistics science that isn't as solid as prosecutors want juries to believe. The murky video identification. The eight-year gap between McKee's divorce and the alleged murders that complicates the premeditation narrative. And the mental health angle that could change everything. Menashe's philosophy is simple: she doesn't put on a defense case. She picks apart the prosecution's evidence piece by piece and lets it collapse under its own weight. That's how she got Husel acquitted on fourteen counts when the evidence seemed insurmountable. McKee isn't fighting for freedom. He's fighting for degrees of punishment. Two children lost their parents that night. The man accused of making them orphans just hired the best defense attorney in Columbus.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #DianeMenashe #WilliamHusel #BobMotta #TepeCase #AggravatedMurder #ColumbusOhio #DefenseStrategyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In 2022, she co-led the defense of Dr. William Husel, the Mount Carmel physician charged with murdering fourteen ICU patients through allegedly lethal fentanyl doses. She called one witness. Husel was acquitted on all fourteen counts. She also kept cop-killer Quentin Smith off death row. Now she's representing Michael McKee—the vascular surgeon accused of driving 325 miles in the middle of the night to execute his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Dr. Spencer Tepe while their two young children slept nearby. McKee pleaded not guilty Friday to four counts of aggravated murder. The evidence police have described is staggering: ballistics allegedly matching a gun found at his property to shell casings at the scene, vehicle tracking from Ohio to Illinois, Ring camera footage, a firearm suppressor that screams premeditation, and no forced entry. So how does Menashe attack this case? Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down her likely strategy—the ballistics science that isn't as solid as prosecutors want juries to believe, the murky video identification, and the eight-year gap between McKee's divorce and the alleged murders that complicates the premeditation narrative. Menashe's philosophy is simple: she doesn't put on a defense case. She picks apart the prosecution's evidence piece by piece and lets it collapse under its own weight. McKee isn't fighting for freedom. He's fighting for degrees of punishment. And Menashe is the best in the business at finding daylight in the darkness. Two children lost their parents on December 30th. The man accused of making them orphans just hired Columbus's most formidable defense attorney.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #DianeMenashe #WilliamHusel #BobMotta #AggravatedMurder #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

For eleven days after Monique Tepe and her husband Dr. Spencer Tepe were found shot to death in their Columbus home, the man charged with their murders was still working as a vascular surgeon in Illinois. Michael McKee, 39, pleaded not guilty on January 23rd to four counts of aggravated murder. Prosecutors say ballistic evidence links a firearm from McKee's Rockford property to shell casings recovered at the crime scene. Surveillance footage allegedly captured his vehicle arriving just before the December 30th killings and leaving shortly after. Columbus Police Chief Elaine Bryant called it a "targeted" and "domestic violence related attack." The couple's two young children, ages four and one, were found unharmed inside the home. McKee and Monique divorced in 2017 after less than two years of marriage. She and Spencer were approaching their fifth wedding anniversary. But the murder charges aren't the only story here. McKee's Nevada medical license had expired in June 2025. Court records show he was added to a malpractice lawsuit just months before the killings. He allegedly provided fake addresses on official documents. Yet he was credentialed to perform surgery at OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center in Rockford. How does this happen? We expose the National Practitioner Data Bank—a database Congress created to catch problem doctors that the public can't access and many state medical boards don't check. Over 500 doctors disciplined in one state are practicing elsewhere with clean records. More than 250 who surrendered licenses are operating in new states with no consequences. They call it "passing the trash" in education. In medicine, there's no equivalent reform. No federal accountability. Just a system protecting physician mobility over patient safety. McKee faces life without parole. But how many doctors like him are out there right now?#SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #TepeMurders #MedicalMalpractice #StateMedicalBoard #ColumbusOhio #PatientSafety #TrueCrimeToday #AggravatedMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

How do prosecutors prove premeditation when there are no eyewitnesses? When there's an eight-year gap between a divorce and a double homicide? When the defendant is a board-certified vascular surgeon with no criminal history who doesn't look like a killer? Michael McKee allegedly drove 300 miles from Chicago to Columbus to execute his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Dr. Spencer Tepe while their young children slept nearby. The evidence police have described is substantial—ballistic matches linking a firearm from McKee's property to shell casings at the scene, vehicle surveillance, a confirmed ID in alley footage, and a firearm suppressor that prosecutors will argue proves this was planned. Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis spent years in the Special Victims Unit handling first-degree murder cases and has tried 45+ jury trials. He breaks down why charges were upgraded from murder to aggravated murder, how prosecutors establish motive across a timeline spanning nearly a decade, and what the state needs the jury to believe about Dr. Michael McKee. We also examine McKee's behavioral patterns through the Dark Triad framework—narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. A man who allegedly evaded a malpractice lawsuit nine times, fled his marriage after seven months, and may have spent years fixating on the woman who moved on without him. Every possible defense strategy runs into the wall of premeditation evidence. And the same ego that allegedly drove him to murder may prevent him from ever accepting a plea deal that could spare him from life without parole.#MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #MichaelMcKee #TepeMurders #EricFaddis #AggravatedMurder #DarkTriad #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimeToday #MurderTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
