Blood, Drag Marks, And A Child's Shoe — What Uvalde Jurors Saw Inside Room 111 | Gonzales Trial

The ex-husband of Monique Tepe has been arrested and charged with murdering her and her husband Spencer Tepe in their Columbus, Ohio home. Michael David McKee, 39, a vascular surgeon living in Chicago, was taken into custody Saturday in Rockford, Illinois, after detectives linked him to a vehicle captured on surveillance footage near the crime scene. Spencer Tepe, 37, a dentist, and Monique Tepe, 39, were found shot dead on December 30, 2025. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds; she was shot at least once in the chest. Three 9mm casings were found inside. No weapon was recovered. No forced entry. Their two children — a 4-year-old daughter and 1-year-old son — were found unharmed. McKee and Monique married in August 2015 and separated seven months later. Divorce documents reveal Monique listed both her engagement and wedding rings as "Separate Property" with the explanation "I paid." The separation agreement required her to reimburse McKee $1,281.59 with a 23% interest penalty. She filed for divorce citing incompatibility and paid for a private judge to speed things up. Eight years passed. She remarried. Had kids. Built a life. And then, allegedly, her ex-husband drove from Illinois and killed her and Spencer in the home where they'd exchanged vows. Police have not released a motive. McKee awaits extradition to Ohio.#TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #ColumbusOhio #OhioMurder #ExHusbandCharged #WeinlandPark #DoubleHomicide #TrueCrimeTodayJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Major development in the Reiner murder case. According to TMZ, Nick Reiner — charged with the brutal stabbing deaths of his parents Rob and Michele Reiner — admits he killed them but genuinely believes his incarceration is part of a conspiracy against him. Sources say he doesn't understand why he's in jail. This comes as Nick's defense team has shifted dramatically — high-profile attorney Alan Jackson withdrew from the case on January 7th, and Nick is now represented by a public defender. His arraignment has been pushed to February 23rd. But here's what makes this leak significant: whether Nick's conspiracy belief is genuine psychosis or calculated positioning, it lands exactly where an insanity defense needs it to. The legal standard in California isn't about knowing right from wrong — it's about understanding the "nature and quality" of your actions. A man who can't connect "I killed my parents" to "therefore I'm in jail" might meet that standard. TMZ's sources also reveal that Nick's medications for schizoaffective disorder were changed about a month before the murders and are still not working properly. If true, Nick may be sitting in Twin Towers Correctional Facility in active psychosis right now. But Nick also has a long history that complicates any sympathy — eighteen rehab stays, years of alleged manipulation, and a pattern of working every system designed to help him. His own parents reportedly couldn't tell when he was genuinely sick versus when he was playing them. Now a jury has to figure it out. We break down what this means for the case, why the timing matters, and the impossible question at the heart of this tragedy.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #ReinerMurder #BreakingNews #TrueCrimeToday #InsanityDefense #MentalHealth #TrueCrime #CaseUpdateJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Paranoid behavior. Rapid weight loss. A lawyer warning Judge Mullins directly that the sheriff was "losing it." A medical diagnosis the day before the shooting. None of it stopped what happened.Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins True Crime Today to break down why warning signs get missed — especially when the person showing them has a badge, a title, and years of trust behind them. What did the people around Stines see? What did they miss? And what should have triggered intervention before it was too late?#MickeyStines #TrueCrimeToday #RobinDreeke #FBI #KevinMullins #TrueCrimeNews #CourthouseShooting #BehavioralAnalysisJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

True Crime Today presents the complete interview with former FBI special agent Robin Dreeke on the Charity Beallis case — covering behavioral analysis, investigative developments, and the complications that make this case resist simple conclusions.December 3rd, 2025. Bonanza, Arkansas. A mother and her six-year-old twins found dead from gunshot wounds. Over a month later: no arrest, no suspect named, no cause of death released. The investigation continues with federal assistance.The easy narrative is clear-cut domestic violence. The documented evidence isn't that simple.Randall Beallis pled guilty to battery. His previous wife died from a gunshot wound. But Charity's documented record includes a 2013 firearm arrest and allegations from her own father that she was dangerous to her child. According to a police report, that same father allegedly told investigators in 2021 that Charity confessed to involvement in Shawna Beallis's death — a claim he later contradicted publicly.Robin Dreeke spent 32 years in federal law enforcement, including years running the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program. In this comprehensive interview, he applies that expertise across every layer of this case.First, the documented behaviors — patterns on both sides, escalation indicators, contradictions. Second, the investigation — what twelve search warrants, federal involvement, and law enforcement language typically signal. Third, the complexity — how investigators handle cases where documented allegations exist against multiple parties.This analysis presumes no one's guilt. The only certainty is that two children are dead.Content on this site is based on publicly available information and reflects commentary and opinion.

Nick Reiner was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago and was being treated with medication that sources say was working. Then three to four weeks before he allegedly stabbed his parents to death, doctors changed his prescription. That's when he went off the rails. His behavior became erratic and dangerous. His parents saw it. They were alarmed. By the time they brought him to Conan O'Brien's Christmas party on December 13th, they were bringing him just to keep an eye on him. His mother Michele had been telling friends they were at their wits' end.Less than 24 hours later, Rob and Michele Reiner were dead in the master bedroom of their Brentwood home. Multiple sharp force injuries. Time from injury to death was minutes.Yesterday high-profile attorney Alan Jackson withdrew from Nick's defense after three weeks of investigation. But before leaving he told reporters Nick is not guilty of murder under California law. He's prohibited from explaining why.Former FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke joins me to analyze what the behavioral warning signs reveal, how a medication change factors into predicting violence, and what Alan Jackson's exit means for the case ahead. We break down the pattern of escalation in Nick's history and why having unlimited resources couldn't save this family.#NickReiner #RobReiner #TrueCrimeToday #Schizophrenia #FBI #RobinDreeke #AlanJackson #BrentwoodMurders #MicheleReiner #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

True Crime Today's week in review features former FBI special agent Robin Dreeke's comprehensive analysis of the Charity Beallis case — examining what happens when documented evidence shows violence on both sides of a relationship.Charity Beallis and her twins Eliana and Maverick were found shot to death on December 3rd, 2025, in Bonanza, Arkansas. Over a month later: no arrest, no named suspect, no cause of death released. The investigation remains active with federal agencies assisting.Many have framed this as a domestic violence case with a clear victim and perpetrator. The documented record tells a more complicated story. Randall Beallis pled guilty to misdemeanor domestic battery. His previous wife Shawna also died from a gunshot wound in 2012 — ruled suicide. But Charity's documented history includes a 2013 arrest for allegedly pointing a firearm at a man, custody allegations from her own father claiming she endangered her child, and according to a 2021 police report, her father allegedly told investigators Charity confessed to killing Shawna.That same father later told media he never said Charity was involved — only that "she knew who did it." That contradiction is significant.Robin Dreeke — 32 years in federal law enforcement including running the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program — joined us for a three-part analysis. He examined documented behaviors on both sides, the investigative signals including search warrants and the dumpster discovery, and how investigators approach cases where claims conflict with other claims and the truth may not fit any comfortable narrative. The only certainty is that Eliana and Maverick are gone. Everything else remains under investigation.#CharityBeallis #RobinDreeke #FBI #TrueCrimeToday #ElianaAndMaverick #RandallBeallis #BonanzaArkansas #BehavioralAnalysis #WeekInReview #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

True Crime Today's week in review covers the Adelson case — Charlie's appeal arguments and Donna's prison transfer to South Florida.Charlie Adelson will be back in court February 3rd, 2026 — not for a new trial, but for twenty minutes to convince three appellate judges that the system got it wrong. His 91-page brief argues pretrial publicity in Tallahassee was so overwhelming that a fair trial was impossible. The numbers are stark: 96 of 130 potential jurors had heard of the case. Of the 54 who formed an opinion, 53 believed Charlie was guilty before testimony began. His team also claims defense attorney Dan Rashbaum had a conflict of interest — the same issue that exploded Donna's trial when Charlie revoked his waiver the morning of jury selection.Meanwhile, Donna Adelson has been transferred to Homestead Correctional Institution in Miami-Dade County. The woman who allegedly funded a contract killing because she couldn't accept her grandchildren living in Tallahassee is now thirty miles from her former life, behind razor wire, serving life without parole. She's filed her own notice of appeal. Criminal appeals succeed around five percent of the time.Five people convicted. Charlie in South Dakota over security concerns. Donna in Homestead. Katherine Magbanua in Ocala. The hitmen locked up. Eleven years from Dan Markel's murder to final judgment.And Wendi Adelson — named by prosecutors as an unindicted co-conspirator, testified under limited immunity at every trial, never charged. State Attorney Jack Campbell said decisions would come "in the coming weeks" after Donna's conviction. That was months ago.#CharlieAdelson #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel #TrueCrimeToday #WendiAdelson #AdelsonAppeal #MurderForHire #FloridaCrime #WeekInReview #JusticeForDanMarkelJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
