The Tepe Murders: The Case Against Michael McKee6 Helmi

Spencer & Monique Tepe: McKee Affidavit Reveals Years of Alleged Obsession

Spencer and Monique Tepe were shot to death in their Liberty Township, Ohio home on December 30th. Michael McKee—Monique's ex-husband—has been charged with aggravated murder. The unsealed affidavit documents what prosecutors describe as eight years of alleged obsession: surveillance footage, stolen plates, threats to kill, and digital silence during the murder window.

Defense attorney Eric Faddis breaks down the prosecution's case and where the defense might find vulnerabilities.

Surveillance footage is central. Cameras captured McKee walking through the Tepes' property on December 6th or 7th while Spencer and Monique were in Indianapolis for the Big Ten Championship game. That's documented pre-offense reconnaissance—and it supports prior calculation and design charges.

Witnesses described years of threats. McKee allegedly told people he could "kill her at any time," that he would "find her and buy the house right next to her," and that Monique "will always be his wife." Those statements span their marriage and the years after. Faddis explains how historical threats get introduced at trial.

The firearm specifications are charged in the alternative: automatic weapon or silencer-equipped firearm. The weapon hasn't been recovered. What does that hedging tell us?

McKee's cell phone showed no activity from December 29th until after noon on December 30th—a window covering the estimated 3:50 a.m. time of death. How do prosecutors use digital silence?

A silver SUV tracked to McKee appeared near the Tepe home displaying stolen plates. After arrest, fresh scrape marks showed a distinctive sticker had been removed from the vehicle.

No forced entry was found. The aggravated burglary charge suggests prosecutors have a theory about access.

McKee waived extradition and pleaded not guilty. Eric Faddis analyzes the legal road ahead for the Tepe murder case.
