Michael McKee: The "Wound Collector" Psychology & Forensic Evidence in the Tepe Double Homicide

Eight years between a divorce and an alleged double murder. Most people heal. Most people rebuild. But according to former FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke, Dr. Michael McKee may fit a dangerous profile: the wound collector. Someone who catalogs grievances, assigns permanent blame, and carries resentment for years—even decades—before acting on it.

Dreeke headed the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program for over three decades. He breaks down how wound collectors operate: how high-functioning professionals like surgeons can mask dangerous resentment behind successful careers, what triggers someone to finally act after years of stewing, how they flip the narrative to see themselves as victims, and what watching an ex-spouse build a happy new life does to someone who never let go. McKee had no criminal record. No documented threats. Nothing on paper that flagged him as dangerous. Understanding wound collectors might help someone recognize the signs before the next tragedy.

Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer examines the forensic case. Surveillance footage shows McKee's vehicle arriving before the killings and leaving after. A preliminary NIBIN ballistics match connects a firearm from his Chicago penthouse to shell casings at the crime scene. A hooded figure was captured walking through an alley at 3:52 AM. But questions remain: no forced entry at the Tepe home, and the baffling decision to allegedly keep the murder weapon in his own apartment for eleven days. Why would a surgeon—someone whose career demands precision—make that alleged mistake?

Coffindaffer analyzes the behavioral red flags months before the murders, including a malpractice process server who tried nine times to find McKee at addresses that didn't exist. She explains what investigators are likely holding back and why waiving extradition might be strategic. McKee maintains his innocence and plans to plead not guilty to two counts of premeditated aggravated murder.
