Monique & Richard Tepe Murder Case + Kohberger WSU Lawsuit: Attorney Eric Faddis Legal Analysis

from The Tepe Murders: The Case Against Michael McKee · host Hidden Killers Podcast

This week we're examining the full legal picture in the Tepe double murder case—plus the Kohberger wrongful death lawsuit that's making national headlines—with former felony prosecutor turned defense attorney Eric Faddis. Dr. Michael McKee is charged with aggravated murder in the deaths of Monique Tepe and Richard Tepe. Police say they recovered the murder weapon from McKee's Chicago apartment eleven days after the killings. His alibi reportedly failed. Family members describe eight years of alleged obsession. But McKee has resources and a defense team looking for every crack in the prosecution's case. Faddis breaks down what Ohio prosecutors must prove, how they'll present forensic evidence and pre-arrest statements, and where the defense will attack—from chain of custody issues to the fundamental problem of no eyewitnesses. He also examines the Kohberger lawsuit: the families of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin are suing WSU, alleging 13 formal complaints against Kohberger were ignored before he murdered their children. The lawsuit claims "deliberate indifference" and argues the killings were "foreseeable and preventable." Faddis analyzes the Title IX claims, gross negligence, and what this case could mean for institutional liability nationwide.#MoniqueTepe #RichardTepe #TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #KayleeGoncalves #EricFaddis #TepeMurderCase #AggravatedMurderJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
