The most dangerous moment in domestic violence isn't the abuse. It's the escape. Research consistently shows the period immediately following separation is when lethality risk spikes. The abuser isn't losing a partner — they're losing control. And for some, that loss demands correction. Sometimes years later.Monique Tepe left Michael McKee within seven months of cohabitation. She filed for divorce. She moved back to Ohio. She did everything we tell domestic violence victims to do. According to prosecutors, eight years later, McKee allegedly drove hundreds of miles to kill her and her husband Spencer in their home while their children slept nearby.This episode examines the real barriers that keep victims trapped — financial dependence, children as leverage, trauma bonding, the credibility gap — and why the legal system is designed to respond to events rather than the patterns that precede them. Coercive control isn't a crime in most U.S. states. Restraining orders work on people who respect legal boundaries. The system waits for the crisis. And by the time the crisis arrives, it's often too late.The question was never about Monique. The question is about a system that left her unprotected.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

You get out. The divorce is final. You're physically safe. And then one morning you're standing in your kitchen and a thought hits you that you weren't expecting: Who am I?Not "what do I do now." This is deeper. What do I actually like? What do I actually think? What do I actually want — not what keeps the peace, not what avoids punishment — what do I want? For someone coming out of coercive control, those questions can feel impossible. Because the person who entered that relationship has been systematically disassembled.True crime coverage talks about the abuse. The escape. The arrest. It almost never talks about what comes after — the healing, the identity work, the daily act of becoming yourself again after someone spent years trying to erase you.This episode honors what Monique Tepe built after her marriage to Michael McKee. She chose Spencer. She chose parenthood. She chose joy while carrying fear. And she did it knowing — according to family — that the threat had never fully gone away.We cover what recovery actually looks like: the identity excavation, the role of therapy and its accessibility barriers, the shame that doesn't belong to survivors, and the community of people carrying the same silence. This episode speaks directly to anyone still rebuilding after what happened to them.You are not what happened to you. You are what you build after.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

"Am I being paranoid?" "Is this a real threat, or am I just damaged?" "Am I making this into something it's not?"These aren't idle questions. They're the abuser's voice — internalized so deeply it sounds like your own thoughts. Coercive control teaches you that your reality isn't real. And that lesson doesn't uninstall when you change your address.According to the unsealed affidavit, surveillance footage captured Michael McKee at the Tepe residence on December 6, 2025 — the same day Spencer and Monique were at the Big Ten Championship game in Indianapolis. Monique left at halftime. Court records state she was upset about something involving her ex-husband. There's no documented tip-off.She was 200 miles away. And her body knew.This episode examines what survivors carry after they escape coercive control — the hypervigilance, the PTSD, the triggers that contaminate ordinary life, and the invisible toll on the people who love them. Spencer inherited Monique's fear alongside her. This episode speaks to survivors and the people trying to understand them.Your fear is not weakness.

December 6, 2025. Monique was in Indianapolis. According to the affidavit, McKee was at her house. She left the game at halftime. No documented tip-off. Her nervous system picked up a signal the rest of us would have missed entirely.This episode examines life after escape — the PTSD, the hypervigilance, the landmined ordinary moments, and the partners who inherit the fear. Spencer Tepe loved a woman carrying years of alleged terror. He carried it alongside her. This is the part of the story nobody covers — and the part that should change how we understand what survivors carry.We talk about checking locks three times. Parking facing the exit. Flinching at unknown numbers. Lying awake cataloguing every sound. The way happiness itself becomes coded as dangerous because you learned that good things attract punishment. And the gaslighting that outlasts the relationship — the abuser's voice in your head whispering "you're overreacting" years after they're gone.Your fear is not weakness. It is intelligence. Monique's instincts were right.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee look back on the Toronto Maple Leafs' first game back from the Olympic break, a 4-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. They discuss the disappointing start to an important stretch, Tampa's punishing power play, and a tired-looking return for Auston Matthews. Then, they discuss what comes next for the Leafs as they approach the deadline, the markets for Bobby McMann, Oliver Ekman-Larsson, and Scott Laughton, and whether Brad Treliving is in the right position to make the decisions. Later, they dip into McKee's Midweek Mailbag to answer your questions!

Dr. Charlotte McKee, Chief Medical Officer at Sionna, describes the nature of cystic fibrosis (CF, a genetic disease caused by a mutation in the single CFTR gene. While current CFTR modulator therapies do not address the most common mutation, Sionna's novel oral medicine is designed to target the previously undruggable NBDI domain of the CFTR protein. This new therapy aims to lead to better lung function and prevent the accumulation of permanent damage to other organs like the pancreas, gut, and liver. Charlotte explains, "Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease. The gene was actually discovered in 1989 for cystic fibrosis. It's considered a rare disease, but it's a relatively large rare disease. And one of those rare diseases that is potentially fatal, as you mentioned, it's thought of as a lung disease. And most patients, if their life is shortened, it's typically because of lung disease, because the lungs can be very severely affected. But the protein is caused by a genetic mutation in a gene called CFTR, and the protein is made from that gene. The CFTR protein is present on every epithelial cell of the body." "Sionna is focused on a novel target in the CFTR protein. So you may know that, actually, there are approved medicines that have been developed over the last couple of decades that improve the function of the CFTR protein. And they've really advanced the clinical field, and there have been tremendous advances for people with CF. But this protein, this CFTR protein that goes wrong in CF, is a big, complicated, multi-part channel." "Another unusual thing about CF is that there's one mutation that's so common around the world, and the part of CFTR that goes most wrong with F508del. This mutation is in a part of CFTR that was previously considered undruggable. It's that part that is called NBD1, and Sionna has been working for over a decade and a half of research, actually starting with Genzyme and then continuing through the company, Sanofi, has actually figured out how to develop potential medicines against this part of the CFTR protein that goes most wrong. And so we are working on these, they're called modulators, CFTR modulators, or we are working on NBD1-focused potential medicines that can directly bind to and stabilize this specific part of the CFTR protein." #Sionna #CysticFibrosis #NBD1Stabilizers #CFTRModulators #RareDisease #Biotechnology #MedicalInnovation #PrecisionMedicine #GeneticDisease #PulmonaryHealth sionnatx.com Download the transcript here

Nobody walks into an abusive relationship knowing what it is. The early phase feels like healing — someone finally seeing you, choosing you, making you the center of their world. The attention is overwhelming. The affection is constant. And by the time the walls go up, you're already inside them.This episode examines the mechanics of coercive control escalation through the lens of the McKee-Tepe case. How love bombing targets real emotional needs. How attention becomes surveillance. How the public mask of success shields private abuse. And why the question "didn't you see the red flags?" places blame on the wrong person.Michael McKee's public profile showed a National Merit Scholar, a decorated surgeon, and a man with zero criminal history. According to witnesses, the private allegations tell a different story entirely. That gap between public and private is how coercive control operates — and why victims can't get anyone to believe them.If you've ever blamed yourself for trusting someone who turned out to be dangerous — this episode is for you.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

You didn't miss the signs. The signs were engineered to look like everything you'd been waiting for. The attention that felt like finally being seen. The intensity that felt like passion. The rush to commitment that felt like destiny. None of it was accidental.This episode traces how coercive control relationships are constructed — from love bombing through escalation to the invisible cage — using the McKee-Tepe timeline as the case study. From courtship photos that showed a normal, happy couple to an alleged seven-month collapse, we examine what changes once the commitment is secured and the performance is no longer necessary.The dual identity of a publicly accomplished surgeon and an allegedly abusive partner. The micro-adjustments that turn care into control. And why "you should have seen the red flags" is the most useless sentence in domestic violence — because red flags only exist in hindsight.The signs weren't missed. They were disguised. This episode is for anyone still blaming themselves for not seeing what was designed to stay hidden.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

If you've ever felt trapped in a relationship you couldn't explain — exhausted, anxious, walking on eggshells, but unable to point to a single thing that anyone else would call abuse — you're not crazy. What you experienced has a name. And most people have never heard it.According to witnesses, Monique Tepe allegedly endured death threats, strangulation, and forced sex during a seven-month marriage to Michael McKee. Zero police reports. Zero restraining orders. From the outside, a short marriage that didn't work out. From the inside, allegedly something entirely different.This is the first in a 5-part series on coercive control. We define the beast — isolation, monitoring, financial control, weaponized intimacy, identity erosion — not as clinical theory but through what these mechanisms actually feel like from the inside. Why victims don't recognize it. Why the world doesn't see it. Why most of the United States still doesn't treat it as a crime.The Tepe case anchors this series. But the audience is anyone who has ever said "at least he doesn't hit me." Anyone who recognized something in this episode that they've never had language for.

The NFL combine hasn’t even really started yet but that isn’t stopping “silly season” from getting under way as multiple rumors have already surfaced in regards to the Jets QB situation. https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/70256479/download.mp3 While Matt Lombardo said on one hand that the Jets are expected to go hard after quarterback Malik Willis, Tony Pauline played the flip side of that coin and said the Jets are expected to pinch their pennies in pursuit of a QB along the lines of Davis Mills or Tanne McKee. Two polar opposite takes in the span of a few hours. NFL insider Ian Rapoport says he wouldn’t be surprised if Willis were to command up to $35 million per year. That would be a sizeable number for Willis, but based on what young starting quarterbacks make in 2025, it’s not all that far-fetched. Now of course the Jets could go cheaper and sign somebody like Mills, who completed 57% of his passes in 3 starts last season, but then you’re stuck with Davis Mills as your quarterback. How the Jets approach the quarterback situation and the draft this season should give us some idea as to just how much urgency there is out of 1 Jets Drive to end the team’s playoff drought. Should they add a player of Mills or McKee’s stature, it would suggest there’s no rush to make the postseason. On draft day, an immediate impact starter with no real question marks such as safety Caleb Downs would suggest urgency to get better, whereas drafting a longer-term project such as Arvell Reese would tell us they’re not as concerned with immediate results. Now, this isn’t to say Reese doesn’t have the ability to be an all-world player, because he certainly does. But most seem to believe he’ll move around a bit between linebacker and edge rusher over his first couple of seasons before settling in at any one spot. If the Jets share that vision and take him at two, it shows more of a long-term goal of success versus trying to win right now.The post Jets QB Rumors Already Surfacing; Silly Season is Here appeared first on JetNation.com - New York Jets Blog & Forum.

Shabbat Weekly Reflection
When Monique Tepe divorced Michael McKee in 2017, she did what every expert says to do — she got out. She moved on, remarried, had children, and built a stable life in Columbus, Ohio with her husband Dr. Spencer Tepe. But according to an unsealed affidavit, the danger didn't end with the divorce. Witnesses told investigators McKee had threatened to kill Monique, told her she would always be his wife, and allegedly subjected her to strangulation and sexual violence during their marriage.Court records allege that in the weeks before December 30, 2025, McKee surveilled the Tepe residence using a silver SUV outfitted with stolen Ohio and Arizona license plates. Surveillance footage allegedly captured him on the Tepe property during the Big Ten Championship weekend while the couple was in Indianapolis. Three weeks later, Spencer and Monique were found shot to death in their home. Their two children, ages four and one, were found alive.This episode breaks down the neuroscience and psychology of sustained threat — how chronic fear changes brain chemistry, decision-making, and perception of danger. We examine why normalization of fear is one of the most misunderstood aspects of domestic violence and why the post-separation period is statistically the most lethal. We also look at the institutional blind spots that allowed McKee to allegedly move between four states, acquire and lose medical licenses, evade a process server, and remain unconnected to any domestic violence database.Michael McKee has pleaded not guilty to all charges including aggravated murder and aggravated burglary. He is presumed innocent until proven guilty.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #TrueCrimeToday #DomesticViolencePsychology #NormalizationOfFear #ColumbusOhio #AggravatedMurder #SystemFailure #TrueCrimePodcastJoin 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 told Monique Tepe he could kill her at any time. That she would always be his wife. That he would find her wherever she went. According to witnesses cited in an unsealed Franklin County affidavit, those threats were made during and after a marriage that allegedly included strangulation, sexual violence, and sustained emotional abuse. Monique left. She divorced McKee in 2017, married Spencer Tepe in 2020, and built a life with two young children in Columbus, Ohio.On December 30, 2025, Spencer and Monique were found shot to death inside their Weinland Park home. McKee has been charged with aggravated murder and aggravated burglary. He has pleaded not guilty.This episode explores the psychology of sustained threat — how chronic fear physically reshapes the brain, why normalization of danger makes escalation harder to detect from the inside, and why telling survivors to "just leave" ignores the most dangerous phase of domestic violence. Court records allege McKee surveilled the Tepe home in the weeks before the killings using a vehicle with stolen license plates. Surveillance video allegedly captured him on the Tepe property during the Big Ten Championship weekend, three weeks before the murders.We also examine how McKee allegedly moved through four state licensing systems over a decade — Virginia, Colorado, Nevada, Illinois — with expiring credentials, a malpractice lawsuit, and a process server who couldn't locate him, while no institution connected his alleged history of domestic violence threats to the licenses being issued in his name.Monique Tepe's story challenges everything we think we know about escaping danger.#MoniqueTepe #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #DomesticViolence #HiddenKillers #NormalizationOfFear #SystemFailure #AggravatedMurder #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimePodcastJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Episode 415 of The VentureFizz #podcast features Parker McKee, Partner at Pillar. “When you work really hard… good things come out on the other side.” - Parker McKee. Parker is a perfect example of this mindset - a mantra that I firmly believe in. When Parker has a goal in his sights, he's going to put in the time to get there. He's proven this time and time again, and the results speak for themselves. In athletics, he spent countless hours in his parents' backyard honing his lacrosse skills, which ultimately led him to the D1 level at the University of Michigan, where he served as a co-captain. Professionally, once he discovered a passion for investing and startups, he set his sights on venture capital. Through relentless networking, he landed an internship at .406 Ventures. Later, after pitching his own startup idea to Jamie Goldstein, he stayed on the radar and eventually joined the team in the early days of Pillar, where he has risen to the role as a Partner in the firm.

The full scope of the prosecution's case against Michael McKee is now visible. The affidavit has been unsealed and the Franklin County Coroner has released autopsy reports for Spencer and Monique Tepe. The findings are staggering in their detail and their implications. Monique sustained nine gunshot wounds. Spencer sustained seven. Both had defensive injuries to their hands and arms. They were conscious when the shooting began, and they fought. An entire magazine was emptied into two people in their bedroom while their children slept down the hall. The violence never left that room — but it consumed everything in it. The affidavit establishes an alleged pattern spanning eight years. Surveillance footage captured McKee walking through the Tepe property while Spencer and Monique attended the Big Ten Championship game, days before the killings. Witnesses told investigators McKee made threats throughout and after his marriage to Monique, including that he could "kill her at any time" and that she would "always be his wife." A silver SUV with a distinctive sticker was tracked between McKee's home, his workplace, and the area near the Tepe residence — displaying stolen license plates. After McKee's arrest, fresh scrape marks were found where the sticker had been removed. His cell phone went dark from December 29th through the afternoon of December 30th, a window that covers the estimated time of the murders at approximately 3:50 a.m. Prosecutors will argue that silence was deliberate. The firearm charges are filed in the alternative — automatic weapon or silencer-equipped — which signals the investigation hasn't definitively identified the weapon's exact configuration. That matters for sentencing. McKee is a vascular surgeon with licenses in four states and a decade of advanced medical training. According to prosecutors, he is also someone who allegedly spent years building a documented obsession that culminated in a double homicide that left two children without parents. He waived extradition, entered a not-guilty plea, and reserved the right to address bond. Defense attorney Eric Faddis analyzes how prosecutors build around historical threat evidence, the legal strength and vulnerability of digital silence arguments, how apparent post-offense tampering gets presented at trial, and what McKee's early defense posture signals. Forensic psychologists describe the behavioral profile emerging from this evidence as a "grievance collector" — someone who catalogs perceived wrongs for years before acting with devastating precision. The autopsy confirms what happened.

The affidavit is public. The autopsy reports are released. And the Michael McKee case just became one of the most forensically and psychologically layered murder prosecutions in Ohio. Spencer Tepe was shot seven times. Monique Tepe was shot nine times. Both had defensive wounds on their hands and arms — they were awake, aware, and fighting when they were killed in their bedroom while their children slept feet away. A full magazine emptied into two people. The violence stayed contained to one room but was explosive enough to exhaust every round. Forensic psychologists recognize that pattern. It's controlled rage — the kind associated with what experts call a "grievance collector," someone who catalogs perceived slights over years until action becomes inevitable. The affidavit supports that profile. Surveillance footage places McKee in the Tepe yard while Spencer and Monique were at the Big Ten Championship game, days before the murders. Witnesses describe threats stretching back through and beyond McKee's marriage to Monique. He allegedly told her he could "kill her at any time" and that she "will always be his wife." Stolen license plates were linked to his vehicle. A silver SUV with a distinctive sticker was tracked between McKee's address, his workplace, and the Tepe home. After arrest, fresh scrape marks appeared where the sticker had been — evidence prosecutors will frame as post-offense tampering. McKee's phone went silent from December 29th through the afternoon of December 30th, covering the estimated time of the murders at 3:50 a.m. The firearm specifications are charged in the alternative — automatic weapon or silencer-equipped firearm — a prosecutorial hedge that defense attorney Eric Faddis says reveals something about the investigation's current limits. McKee was a vascular surgeon licensed in four states. A decade of medical training. A professional who held lives in his hands daily. And according to prosecutors, a man who allegedly spent eight years building toward the night he emptied a magazine into his ex-wife and her husband. Faddis breaks down how prosecutors use historical threat evidence, where digital silence arguments hold up and where they fracture, how alternative firearm charges affect sentencing strategy, and what McKee's not-guilty plea with reserved bond arguments tells us about the defense approach. The autopsy reveals how they died. The affidavit reveals the alleged architecture behind it.#MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #TepeAutopsy #McKeeAffidavit #LibertyTownship #ForensicPsychology #DomesticViolence #HiddenKillers #AggravatedMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

True Crime Today presents a comprehensive behavioral analysis with former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, covering two major cases: the Nancy Guthrie abduction and the McKee/Tepe double homicide autopsy findings.Robin served as Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, where he spent decades training agents to read human behavior and detect deception. In this interview, he applies that expertise to cases demanding answers.The Guthrie case: An 84-year-old woman taken from her Tucson home in the middle of the night. Forced entry. Personal items left behind. Ransom notes sent to media outlets—not the family—demanding bitcoin and containing details about the inside of her home. Robin decodes what these behavioral choices reveal about the perpetrator. He explains how investigators assess witnesses, separate grief from guilt, and prioritize leads when false accusations are already circulating.The McKee/Tepe autopsy: Sixteen gunshot wounds between two victims. Monique shot nine times, including once in the face at close range. Spencer shot seven times with defensive injuries suggesting he tried to protect his wife. Robin analyzes the wound patterns—what they reveal about mental state, whether this was cold execution or rage, and how a surgeon's professional conditioning may have shaped the attack.We examine the "wound collector" profile. The affidavit alleges McKee spent eight years obsessing over Monique, making threats, and conducting surveillance. Robin explains what sustains that fixation and what finally triggers action after nearly a decade.McKee's phone went dark during the murder window. Stolen plates. Counter-forensic behavior.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
What does an autopsy really say about motive when the victims never get to speak? In the McKee/Tepe case, the autopsy paints a brutal, almost surgical picture. Monique Tepe was shot nine times, including a close-range gunshot to the face. Spencer Tepe was shot seven times, with defensive wounds to his hand and arm suggesting he tried to shield his wife in their final moments. Both likely died within seconds to minutes. A full magazine was emptied. Two children slept just feet away. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke breaks down what these wound patterns can reveal about the shooter's psychological state, and whether Michael McKee's alleged eight-year fixation made this outcome feel inevitable. Why was Monique shot more times, and at closer range? Does a facial gunshot point to something personal, rage-driven, or symbolic? What do Spencer's defensive injuries tell us about the sequence of events and his last attempt to intervene? Sixteen rounds fired into two people isn't impulsive. Robin explains what that volume of fire suggests about mental rehearsal versus explosive emotion, and how professional conditioning may shape how violence is carried out. According to the affidavit, McKee allegedly told Monique over the years that he could “kill her at any time” and that “she will always be his wife.” Robin explores the so-called wound collector profile, someone who stockpiles perceived slights for years, feeding revenge fantasies until a final trigger pulls everything into motion. With a phone that allegedly went dark during the murder window, stolen plates on the SUV, and post-arrest attempts to alter identifying details, investigators point to counter-forensic behavior and operational awareness. But can anything crack someone who may have planned this for nearly a decade, and does the autopsy itself hold the key to breaking through that psychological armor? #MichaelMcKee #TepeAutopsy #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #RobinDreeke #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #WoundCollector #16Gunshots #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers Join 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 murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer. Surveillance footage allegedly shows his car near the scene. A firearm from his Chicago condo matched through national ballistics databases. Witnesses say Monique told them he'd threatened her for years—that he could "kill her at any time," that she'd "always be his wife." His phone went silent during the killings. Everyone already thinks he's guilty.Defense attorney Bob Motta asks the questions nobody else wants to ask. That surveillance footage everyone's treating as a smoking gun—how reliable is it really? The hearsay testimony from friends—Monique's not alive to testify. Can prosecutors even use it? The phone going dark sounds damning, but Bob explains what juries don't hear about digital evidence.Then there's the psychology of the not guilty plea. McKee waived extradition immediately and his bail hearing while reserving future rights. Most people think that signals defeat. Forensic experts see something else—what they call the "game player." Defendants who view prosecution as competition rather than consequence. The same pattern seen in Scott Peterson, Chris Watts, Ted Bundy. Men facing overwhelming evidence who refused to fold.The same detachment that allows someone to treat a murder trial as an intellectual exercise may be the same detachment that allows them to commit the act. For the game player, other people aren't fully real. They're pieces on a board. The trial isn't punishment—it's the championship round.This is an aggravated murder charge. Prosecutors must prove premeditation—not just that he did it, but that he planned it. Eight years passed between the divorce and the murders. Bob Motta explains why that timeline works for the defense as much as the prosecution.McKee has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven guilty.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #BobMotta #DefenseAttorney #AggravatedMurder #GamePlayerPsychology #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimeToday #DoubleHomicideJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

According to the unsealed affidavit, witnesses told investigators Michael McKee strangled Monique Tepe during their marriage, forced unwanted sex on her, and told her he could end her life whenever he wanted. She divorced him in 2017 after seven months. No police report. No protective order. She told friends and family she was afraid—then got up every morning and lived her life. Fell in love again. Married Spencer. Raised two children.Strangulation is one of the most significant predictors of future lethality in domestic violence research. If McKee did what witnesses allege, Monique was in extreme danger from the moment she left. Rob Misleh said publicly the family didn't fully understand the threats were real until it was too late.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent thirty years working with survivors of intimate partner violence. She's also a survivor—her ex-husband died by revenge suicide after she asked for divorce. She explains why there's so often a gap between what victims communicate and what the people who love them hear. What does eight years of constant threat assessment do psychologically?Then there's the defendant's response. The state has surveillance footage, ballistics, a cell phone that went dark, years of documented threats. McKee pleaded not guilty. Waived bail but reserved the right to revisit—chess move, not surrender. Scott analyzes defendants who treat courtrooms like arenas. Ted Bundy cross-examined witnesses. Scott Peterson watched like a spectator. Chris Watts tried to con homicide detectives.McKee is a surgeon who completed over a decade of elite medical training. Does that professional background feed the compartmentalization we see in courtroom detachment?

Everyone already thinks Michael McKee is guilty. Surveillance footage allegedly linking his vehicle to the scene. A firearm from his Chicago condo matched through national ballistics databases. Witnesses describing years of alleged abuse—that he could "kill her at any time," that Monique would "always be his wife." His phone going silent during the murder window. The court of public opinion convicted him before he was arraigned.Defense attorney Bob Motta looks at cases like this and asks the questions nobody else wants to ask. That's how the justice system is supposed to work.The surveillance footage everyone treats as a smoking gun—how reliable is it really? Bob breaks down what people get wrong about video evidence. The hearsay testimony from friends claiming Monique said McKee threatened her—she's not alive to testify, so can prosecutors even use it? The phone going dark sounds damning, but digital evidence cuts both ways.Then there's the not guilty plea. McKee waived extradition immediately and his bail hearing while reserving future rights. Strategy, not desperation. Forensic experts call defendants who view their own prosecution as competition the "game player"—the pattern seen in Scott Peterson, Chris Watts, Ted Bundy. Men who faced overwhelming evidence but refused to fold.The same detachment that allows someone to treat a murder trial as an intellectual exercise may be the same detachment that enables the act itself. For the game player, other people aren't fully real. They're pieces on a board. The trial isn't punishment—it's the championship round.This is an aggravated murder charge. Prosecutors must prove premeditation—not just that he did it, but that he planned it. Eight years passed between the divorce and the murders. Bob Motta explains why that timeline works for the defense as much as the prosecution.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #BobMotta #DefenseStrategy #AggravatedMurder #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrime #GamePlayerPsychology #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

According to the unsealed affidavit, witnesses told investigators Michael McKee strangled Monique Tepe during their marriage, forced unwanted sex on her, and told her he could end her life whenever he wanted. She divorced him in 2017 after seven months. No police report. No protective order. She told friends and family she was afraid—then got up every morning and lived her life anyway.What does it cost to function—to work, to fall in love again, to marry Spencer, to raise two children—while knowing someone has promised to kill you? That's the question that doesn't make headlines.Strangulation is one of the most significant predictors of future lethality in domestic violence research. If McKee did what witnesses allege, Monique was statistically in extreme danger from the moment she left. Rob Misleh said publicly the family didn't fully understand the threats were real until it was too late. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott explains why there's so often a gap between what a victim communicates and what the people who love them actually hear—and what eight years of constant threat assessment does to someone psychologically.Scott has spent over thirty years working with survivors of intimate partner violence. She's also a survivor herself—her ex-husband died by revenge suicide after she asked for divorce.Then there's McKee's response to being charged. He pleaded not guilty. Waived his bail hearing but reserved the right to revisit it. Chess move, not surrender. Scott analyzes defendants who treat courtrooms like arenas—not places of accountability, but stages to prove they're smarter than everyone else. Ted Bundy, Scott Peterson, Chris Watts. The theory: the detachment that lets someone sit calmly facing murder charges is the same detachment that allegedly let them pull the trigger.McKee has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven guilty.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #ShavaunScott #DomesticViolence #Strangulation #CoerciveControl #DVSurvivor #ColumbusOhio #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Coercive control is now a criminal offense in the United Kingdom, Scotland, Ireland, and parts of Australia. In most of the United States, it still isn't.That gap between what we know about intimate partner abuse and what we've codified into law is the difference between intervention and obituary. The Tepe case illustrates why.According to witnesses, Monique Tepe allegedly experienced death threats, strangulation, and forced sex during a seven-month marriage to Michael McKee—a board-certified vascular surgeon with impeccable public credentials. There is not a single police report. No restraining order. No documented complaint. Under current law in most American jurisdictions, what allegedly happened to Monique wouldn't meet the threshold for criminal intervention until physical evidence appeared.This is the first in a five-part educational series examining coercive control—not as clinical terminology, but as lived experience. We break down the full toolkit: isolation, monitoring, financial dependence, weaponized intimacy, identity erosion, and invisible rules enforced through consequences rather than words. What each one feels like from the inside. Why victims don't recognize it while it's happening. Why the cultural definition of abuse is failing the people who need protection most.The public-private divide is central to how coercive control operates. McKee's documented credentials—National Merit Scholar, Ohio State medical graduate, no criminal history—created a public identity that allegedly bore no resemblance to what was happening behind closed doors. That duality isn't unusual. It's the pattern."At least he doesn't hit me" remains the most dangerous sentence in domestic violence. It defines abuse by visible injury rather than systematic destruction of autonomy. The law in most states still agrees.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three weeks before Spencer and Monique Tepe were found dead, surveillance cameras allegedly captured Michael McKee at their Columbus home. They were 300 miles away at the Big Ten Championship in Indianapolis. According to court documents, Monique left the game at halftime—upset about something involving her ex-husband.What did she know? What did she sense? And why didn't she report it?True Crime Today examines both the behavioral psychology behind McKee's alleged eight-year obsession and the painful reality of why victims of stalking so often don't go to police—even when they know they're in danger.Former FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke breaks down what McKee's alleged pattern reveals. Witnesses say he told Monique he could "kill her at any time," that she would "always be his wife," that he'd buy the house next to hers. Court documents allege he strangled her and forced unwanted sex during their marriage—violence that allegedly evolved into eight years of threats after their 2017 divorce.Robin explains the distinction between threats made as manipulation and threats made as rehearsal. The December 6th surveillance trip wasn't impulse. It was allegedly reconnaissance—the behavioral signature of someone moving from fantasy to action.We also examine the gap between knowing you're in danger and the system being able to help. What does Ohio law require for a protection order? What can police actually do when someone is being stalked by a person who technically hasn't committed a crime yet? What holds victims back from reporting—and what are the options if you're in that situation right now?This isn't victim blaming.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
December 6th, 2025. Monique and Spencer Tepe are in Indianapolis watching the Big Ten Championship. According to court documents, Michael McKee was at their Columbus home that same day—captured on surveillance walking through their yard.Monique left the game at halftime. Upset about something involving her ex-husband.Did she somehow know he'd been there? Did she sense something? Three weeks later, she and Spencer were dead.This episode combines FBI behavioral analysis with a hard look at why victims of stalking so often don't report—even when they know they're in danger.Robin Dreeke, former head of the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, breaks down the psychology of McKee's alleged eight-year obsession. The threats witnesses say he made over the years. The alleged abuse during the marriage—strangulation, forced sex. The December 6th reconnaissance trip that allegedly preceded the killings by three weeks.Robin explains the behavioral distinction between threats made as manipulation and threats made as rehearsal. When someone says "I could kill you at any time" for eight years and then allegedly does it—what was happening psychologically during that timeline? What does it mean when the threats finally stop being words?We also examine the gap between knowing you're in danger and the system being able to help. What does Ohio law actually require for a protection order? What holds victims back from reporting? And what can the legal system do when someone is being stalked by a person who technically hasn't broken the law yet?This isn't victim blaming.

Her father says she was shot twice. Two months, no charges. The history: 2025 arrest for allegedly choking Charity, substantiated child maltreatment for both twins, a prior wife dead in 2012 with a gunshot wound to the forehead.

Surveillance footage shows Micahel McKee in the victims' yard while they were away. Stolen plates tracked to his vehicle. Years of threats. A phone silent during the murder window. Firearm specifications allege automatic weapon or silencer. No forced entry. Faddis breaks down the prosecution's strategy and where defense might challenge.Three cases at different stages. No suspects in one. No charges after two months in another. An affidavit alleging years of planning in the third.Eric Faddis provides the legal framework—what prosecutors have, what they need, and what the people at the center of these cases should be thinking about their exposure.#NancyGuthrie #CharityBeallis #MichaelMcKee #TepeMurders #TrueCrimeToday #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #LegalAnalysis #CriminalDefense #DefenseAttorneyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A firearm was recovered from Michael McKee's Chicago condo. The NIBIN ballistics database allegedly matched it to shell casings found where Spencer and Monique Tepe were shot sixteen times. That's how fast this case unraveled—two bodies on December 30th, an arrest 350 miles away on January 10th.McKee allegedly went dark on his phone for 18 hours during the murder window. Swapped stolen plates from two different states onto his vehicle. Had over a decade of surgical training in precision and planning.Investigators still caught him in 11 days.True Crime Today examines both sides: the forensic investigation that caught a man who allegedly tried not to be caught, and the defense strategy that will try to create reasonable doubt anyway.Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the investigative architecture. The surveillance footage analysis that first flagged McKee's vehicle. The NIBIN ballistics hit. The coordination between Columbus Police, FBI, Chicago PD, and Illinois authorities.Coffindaffer explains what an 18-hour phone blackout actually tells investigators—and how they reconstruct movements when someone has deliberately created a digital gap. The stolen Ohio and Arizona plates looked like counter-surveillance. They became their own forensic trail.Then defense attorney Eric Faddis reveals the playbook McKee's team is preparing. The pretrial fight to exclude testimony about alleged abuse never reported to police. The hearsay battle over three statements Monique allegedly told friends—that McKee could "kill her at any time," that she would "always be his wife."She can't testify. Can her words still convict him?For every piece of evidence, Eric reveals the innocent explanation the defense might offer.

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

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.
