Autopsy reports reveal new details in shooting deaths of Spencer and Monique Tepe

Autopsies show Spencer and Monique Tepe were shot 16 times combined, with wounds suggesting possible defense; no drugs or alcohol found, suspect charged with aggravated murder.

  • The Franklin County Coroner's Office on Tuesday said autopsies revealed a total of 16 gunshot wounds in Spencer and Monique Tepe found dead in their Weinland Park home.
  • Court documents allege Michael McKee threatened Monique and was captured on security video entering their Columbus home on Dec. 6, weeks before the murders.
  • Autopsies show Spencer was shot seven times and Monique nine times with fatal wounds to head, chest, and extremities; pathologists recovered bullets and noted injuries indicating defensive actions.
  • Michael McKee is indicted on four counts of aggravated murder and one count of aggravated burglary, has pleaded not guilty, and remains jailed without bond at Franklin County Jail.
  • Investigators say police quickly ruled out murder-suicide with no gun or forced entry, traced a silver SUV with stolen plates to McKee, and recovered firearms from McKee's Chicago condo, one preliminarily linked via a national ballistics database.
