A shocking crime has left a Columbus community in disbelief. Spencer Tepe, a respected local dentist, and his wife Monique were found dead in their home on December 30th. The police report suggests they died from gunshot wounds. The suspect in this case is Monique's ex-husband, Michael David McKee. He's been charged with two counts of murder. Michael and Monique were married for about two years before their divorce in 2017. They didn't have any kids together. The couple's two young children were found safe in the house. It's unclear why Michael is accused of this crime. The motive is still a mystery.
The police got involved after friends and coworkers grew worried. Spencer didn't show up for work, and Monique wasn't answering her phone. A 911 call described seeing a body and blood inside the home. The police believe the couple was killed between 2 a. m. and 5 a. m. on December 30th. Investigators found three 9 mm shell casings in the house. The police also released a video of a person of interest wearing a hooded jacket. Michael is currently being held in a facility outside of Ohio. His next court date is scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. This tragedy happened just one month before the couple's fifth wedding anniversary. It's a grim reminder that violence can strike anywhere, anytime. The community is left to grapple with the aftermath, searching for answers and justice.
