Tepe Murder Case — Prosecutor Breaks Down Evidence Against Dr. Michael McKee

from Hidden Killers Live! Daily True Crime News & Breakdowns · host Hidden Killers Podcast

Michael McKee allegedly drove 300 miles to kill his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Richard Tepe while their children slept in the house. Police say they found the murder weapon in his Chicago penthouse eleven days later. He's now facing two counts of aggravated murder in Ohio—a state that still has the death penalty. Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us to break down what the state needs to prove and how they plan to prove it. Faddis spent years in the Special Victims Unit prosecuting first-degree murder cases and has tried over 45 jury trials. He understands exactly how prosecutors build a case against a defendant with no criminal record, no eyewitnesses, and a professional reputation that makes him sympathetic to jurors. We're examining the forensic evidence, the alleged ballistic match, McKee's reported false alibi, and the family testimony describing years of emotional abuse. The marriage lasted seven months. The divorce was finalized in 2017. The murders happened in 2025. How do prosecutors bridge an eight-year gap to establish motive and premeditation? What role does the alleged stalking behavior play in proving this was planned? And what does McKee's defense team have to work with?
