OSF Saint Anthony Medical Group Cooperates as Illinois Surgeon Accused of Killing Ex-Wife in Ohio Slaying
A faith-based Catholic medical practice in Illinois has revealed that it is cooperating with authorities investigating a gruesome double murder in Ohio. Michael David McKee, a 39-year-old vascular surgeon employed by OSF Saint Anthony, has been accused of gunning down his ex-wife and her new husband in their home on December 30.
According to police and public records, McKee allegedly traveled over 300 miles from Illinois to Ohio to carry out the heinous double murder. The victims were Spencer Tepe, a prominent dentist, and Monique Tepe, McKee's ex-wife with whom he was married from 2015 to 2017. The couple had two children together before divorcing.
The medical group did not confirm whether McKee is still employed but did note that his doctor profile does not appear on its website. Authorities have yet to establish a motive for the murders, which occurred between 2 and 5 am in the upstairs of the home with no sign of forced entry or gun found at the scene.
Surveillance footage shows a "person of interest" walking down an alley near the couple's home around the time of the killings. Authorities tracked a vehicle that was in the vicinity and later discovered it had traveled 325 miles to Rockford, Illinois, where McKee was arrested on Saturday on murder charges.
McKee holds medical licenses in both Illinois and California and allegedly owns the car used by the suspect. The two children of the slain couple were found unharmed inside their home when authorities discovered the victims' bodies. A motive for the murders has yet to be identified.
The medical group is cooperating with law enforcement, but inquiries should be directed at the authorities, according to a spokesperson.

I'm telling you, this doesn't smell right... like there's more to this story than what we're being told. This guy travels 300 miles from Illinois to Ohio, no signs of forced entry or gun found on scene? That's a pretty big coincidence, if you ask me 
. And what about the surveillance footage showing a 'person of interest' walking down an alley near their home? Is that just a red herring or is there something fishy going on with the car McKee allegedly owns? I mean, it's not like he'd just happen to own the same vehicle as the suspect... 
My money's on there being some deeper conspiracy at play here 
.
OMG, can you believe this?! Some doc in Illinois is accused of killing his ex-wife and her new hubby in Ohio! 
I mean, 300 miles is a looong way to travel just to do that... what's going on with him? 
And the fact that he still has medical licenses in multiple states just makes it even more sickening... like, how does someone get away with this for so long?! 
The parents' kids were actually okay though, which is a blessing 
. Anyway, gotta keep an eye on this case... it's definitely got everyone talking 
I mean what was going through his mind when he drove all the way from Illinois to Ohio with no clear motive? 
and now we find out he's got connections in California too? 
this whole thing is so messed up, how can someone with a stethoscope do something like that? 
to your ex and her new husband 
. I'm all for second chances, but this guy takes the cake 
. Hopefully justice will be served and those two kids can get back to some sense of normalcy 
.
. 300 miles is quite a distance to travel, what was going on in that mind of his? 
The investigation is still ongoing so I guess we'll have to wait & see if he's found guilty or not... this whole thing is giving me goosebumps
