BIZARRE: BRIEF ’STARTER MARRIAGE’ CLUE, DENTIST & WIFE MURDERS @ HOME, TOT KIDS ASLEEP

Investigators get all available surveillance video from the Tepe neighborhood, focusing on the time between 2am and 5am, and release video of one person walking in the alley behind the Tepe home.

Police believe that person is Michael McKee. One car with an Illinois license plate, arrives in the neighborhood shortly before the Tepe murders take place, and leaves shortly thereafter.

The license plate on the vehicle is registered to Michael McKee, a vascular surgeon in Chicago. McKee is also Monique Tepe's ex-husband.

The vehicle registered to McKee is traced to Rockford, Illinois, and evidence inside the vehicle links McKee to the murders of Spencer and Monique. Police are not saying what evidence was found in the vehicle and a motive for the murders has not been made public, but police say there is proof McKee was in possession of the vehicle prior to and after the homicides.

The arrest warrant for McKee says the murders took place at 3:52am and McKee is identified by surveillance video and the vehicle. McKee charged two counts of murder and is currently in a Winnebago County jail awaiting extradition to Ohio.

Monique Tepe married vascular surgeon Michael McKee in August of 2015, but separated as a couple after just seven months. The couple had no children, Monique stated the reason for the divorce was they were "incompatible." After living separate and apart for a year, divorce proceeding began in May 2017 and the divorce was final the next month.
