The December 6th Surveillance Trip That Allegedly Preceded Spencer and Monique Tepe's Murder

The December 6th Surveillance Trip That Allegedly Preceded Spencer and Monique Tepe's Murder

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. It's understanding why the space between fear and action is so hard to cross.
