Doctor charged with murdering his ex-wife and her Ohio husband waives right to extradition hearing
Michael McKee faces premeditated aggravated murder charges after killing his ex-wife and her husband in their Columbus home; their two children were unharmed, officials said.
- Michael David McKee, 39, waived his right to an extradition hearing Monday in Winnebago County, Illinois, and faces two counts of premeditated aggravated murder in Franklin County, Ohio; Judge Donald Shriver scheduled a Jan. 19 hearing to confirm his transfer.
- On Dec. 30, police discovered Monique Tepe, 39, and Dr. Spencer Tepe, 37, shot to death around 10 a.m. after Spencer failed to show up for work in Athens, Ohio.
- Police linked neighborhood surveillance and vehicle tracking to a suspect vehicle tied to McKee that arrived shortly before and left shortly after the killings, later found near Rockford, Illinois.
- Winnebago County Sheriff's Office will work with Franklin County, Ohio to extradite McKee, who pleaded not guilty through his public defender to premeditated aggravated murder charges that could bring life or the death penalty.
- Their two young children were left unharmed in the home, and the Tepe family called the arrest `an important step toward justice` as investigators await coroner findings.
