Tepe Autopsy: 16 Wounds, Defensive Injuries & An 8-Year Obsession

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.
