Columbus grand jury indicts surgeon in Tepes’ killings

Columbus’ Franklin County grand jury indicted Michael David McKee, a 39-year-old vascular surgeon living in Chicago, on aggravated murder and aggravated burglary with a firearm for the December 30 killings of his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer Tepe in their Columbus home. McKee was arrested in Illinois; authorities say video linked him to the Tepes’ home and a firearm found at his Illinois residence matched evidence at the scene. He remains in custody with a next hearing in Winnebago County on January 23. The Tepes’ two young children and their dog were unharmed, there was no forced entry, and OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center is cooperating with the investigation.

Columbus double murder: ex-husband arrested as motive remains unknown

Ex-husband Michael David McKee was arrested in Illinois on two murder counts in the December 30, 2025 killings of Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer Tepe in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio prosecutors upgraded the charges to premeditated, aggravated murder, and McKee has waived extradition to face them in Ohio. Authorities have not released a motive, which investigators are expected to explore during discovery through review of social media, internet searches, phone records, and movements. The Tepes’ two young children were found unharmed. McKee is represented as pleading not guilty, and prosecutors will build a narrative around motive as the case proceeds.
