Spencer and Monique Tepe Found Dead — Ex-Husband McKee's Firearm Links to Scene

The testimony in Paul Caneiro's quadruple murder trial has turned graphic. A Colts Neck detective told jurors that when eight-year-old Sophia Caneiro's body was removed from the burned mansion, he noticed she had stab wounds—including one to her left eye. Sophia's father Keith, mother Jennifer, and 11-year-old brother Jesse were also found dead inside the home on November 20, 2018. Paul Caneiro, Keith's older brother, is charged with four counts of first-degree murder. Prosecutors say Paul shot Keith multiple times outside the mansion, then went inside and stabbed Jennifer and both children before setting the house on fire. Hours earlier, Paul allegedly set fire to his own Ocean Township home while his wife and daughters slept inside—a move prosecutors say was designed to make it look like the entire Caneiro family was being targeted. The motive, according to prosecutors: Keith had discovered Paul was stealing from their shared businesses and was preparing to cut him off from a $225,000 salary. Jurors heard the final phone calls between the brothers, including Keith demanding login credentials for a trust account. Paul's defense attorney says he's innocent and claims investigators never looked into a third Caneiro brother. Paul has been in jail without bail since his arrest the day after the murders—more than seven years ago.#CaneirioTrial #PaulCaneiro #KeithCaneiro #SophiaCaneiro #ColtsNeckMurders #MansionMurders #JenniferCaneiro #MonmouthCounty #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Jesse Butler thought he got away with it. The Stillwater, Oklahoma teen pled no contest to 11 felony charges — attempted rape, rape by instrumentation, strangulation, violating a protective order — and avoided prison entirely. But attorney Rachel Bussett just filed a motion that could blow the whole thing up.Her argument: the plea was void from the start. According to court documents, victims weren't consulted before the deal was struck. Orders were filed without signatures. One victim was in surgery when the youthful offender certification was entered. The DA allegedly told a minor victim about the plea — and then told her not to tell her mother.On February 3rd, 2026, a Payne County court will decide whether this Marsy's Law challenge moves forward. If Bussett wins, Jesse Butler's plea deal could be thrown out and the case could restart as an adult prosecution.And that's not all. A federal lawsuit now names Stillwater Public Schools, Principal Walter Howell, the school resource officer, and Butler's own parents — including his father Mack Butler, former Oklahoma State football operations director — as defendants. The allegations include Title IX violations, civil rights violations, and claims the school refused to enter a protective order into their database because they didn't want to interfere with Butler's education.The system failed these girls. Now the families are fighting back on every front.#JesseButler #StillwaterOklahoma #MarsysLaw #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #PayneCounty #JusticeForSurvivors #OklahomaState #YouthfulOffender #RachelBussettJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The ballistic match that prosecutors say connects Dr. Michael McKee to the murders of his ex-wife and her husband is now central to the case against him. McKee, a 39-year-old vascular surgeon, pleaded not guilty on January 23rd to four counts of aggravated murder in the deaths of Monique Tepe and Dr. Spencer Tepe. The couple was found shot to death in their Weinland Park home on December 30th. Spencer had been shot multiple times; Monique sustained a gunshot wound to the chest. Their children, ages four and one, were in the home but physically unharmed. Columbus police say surveillance footage tracked McKee's vehicle to the neighborhood during the timeframe of the killings. When investigators seized firearms from his Illinois property, preliminary analysis through the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network tied one weapon to three 9mm shell casings recovered from the Tepe residence. McKee is represented by defense attorney Diane Menashe, who previously represented Dr. William Husel in the Mount Carmel hospital deaths case. The prosecution team includes newly-elected Franklin County Prosecutor Shayla Favor. Monique and McKee divorced in 2017. She married Spencer in 2019. A 911 call from April 2025 captured someone at the Tepe address saying she and her partner "got into it" before declining police assistance.#TepeMurders #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #ColumbusOhioMurder #DomesticViolenceHomicide #WeinlandPark #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeForTepe #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bryan Kohberger generated 13 formal complaints at Washington State University in a single semester. Nick Reiner had been through 18 rehab programs and a court-ordered conservatorship. In both cases, people saw something. In both cases, according to the evidence, nothing stopped what came next. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Hidden Killers for an extended analysis of institutional failure and family blind spots—two different mechanisms that allegedly allowed two tragedies to unfold despite abundant warning signs. Robin spent 21 years with the FBI, including as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, and he breaks down what these cases reveal about how threat assessment works—and doesn't. On Kohberger: The WSU lawsuit alleges faculty predicted he would sexually abuse students. Staff created their own "911" email alerts. Women needed security escorts. Robin explains what 13 complaints should operationally trigger and why universities choose perceived legal protection over safety. On Reiner: Nick was under LPS conservatorship oversight by a professional fiduciary—someone trained to not be fooled. It ended after one year. Robin analyzes what strategic compliance looks like, how someone becomes "institutionally fluent" enough to perform recovery, and how a family's ability to perceive danger erodes over two decades until they're sleeping in the same house with someone in crisis. Two cases, two failures, one conversation about what it takes to see the danger in front of you—and act on it.#HiddenKillers #BryanKohberger #NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #RobinDreeke #FBI #KayleeGoncalves #ThreatAssessment #InstitutionalFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Your questions have been flooding in on three of the most talked-about cases right now, and we're dedicating this episode to answering them. First: Nick Reiner, charged with murdering his parents Rob and Michele Reiner after years of addiction, schizophrenia, and a family that never gave up — until allegedly, it cost them their lives. Why did Alan Jackson walk away? How do you reconcile "Being Charlie" with this? Then: the WSU Kohberger lawsuit. The families of the four Idaho murder victims allege Washington State University received thirteen complaints about Bryan Kohberger and did essentially nothing. A professor warned he'd become a predator. Women needed escorts to their cars. And the institution allegedly protected itself instead of its students. Finally: Michael McKee and the Tepe murders. A surgeon who allegedly drove 300 miles to kill the ex-wife who'd moved on and the husband who loved her. Monique did everything right — she left, divorced, rebuilt — and she's still dead. We tackle enabling, institutional failure, coercive control, and the common thread running through all three: systems that should have protected people and didn't.#NickReiner #BryanKohberger #MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #RobReiner #WSULawsuit #IdahoMurders #CoerciveControl #HiddenKillers #ListenerQuestionsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

By the time Nick Reiner was fifteen, he'd already learned a dangerous lesson: there is no bottom, because someone will always catch you. His parents—legendary director Rob Reiner and photographer Michele Singer Reiner—spent decades trying to save their troubled son. Eighteen rehab stints. Private wellness instructors. Family therapy. A guesthouse on their $13.5 million Brentwood estate that sources say he destroyed multiple times and they kept repairing.On December 14, 2025, Rob and Michele were found stabbed to death. Nick was arrested that night.In this Hidden Killers deep dive, we examine who Nick Reiner really was—not the redemption story from the 2015 film Being Charlie, but the darker reality hidden behind Hollywood privilege. A rehab roommate describes him as "a fucking pompous little punk" with "no sense of gratitude." A family yoga instructor recalls childhood tantrums so intense she'd "never seen a child like it." And Nick himself, on the Dopey podcast, admitted to destroying property with "no logic" and stealing medication from the elderly.We trace the path from entitled child to alleged killer—through a 2020 mental health conservatorship, a reported medication change weeks before the murders, and a Christmas party at Conan O'Brien's house where multiple guests saw a man in crisis and no one called 911. This is a story about what happens when money can't buy accountability and love becomes enabling.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #HollywoodMurder #ReinerMurder #Parricide #Addiction #MentalHealthJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Monique's family said they "immediately knew" it was Michael McKee when they got the call. They knew. For eight years they watched her live in fear of a man she'd been married to for seven months. And nothing could be done. Michael McKee is now charged with two counts of aggravated murder for allegedly killing Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer in their Ohio home while their children — a four-year-old and a one-year-old — slept down the hall. He allegedly drove 300 miles from New York, committed a double homicide, drove home, and kept the gun in his apartment. Your questions have forced us to confront the hardest parts of this case: What was Monique supposed to do? She did everything "right." She left. She divorced. She moved on. She built a beautiful life. And McKee allegedly destroyed it anyway. We examine the birthday cards signed "Your Husband" years after the divorce, his crumbling medical career, and whether his alibi was always meant to fail. This episode is about coercive control, the limits of restraining orders, and the question no one wants to answer — does a man like this feel like he won?#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #CoerciveControl #DomesticViolenceAwareness #OhioMurder #StalkerKiller #HiddenKillers #RestrainingOrdersFail #TrueCrimePanelJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Michael McKee is charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer Tepe in their Columbus, Ohio home on December 30, 2025. But here's what should disturb you even more than the alleged crime itself: for eleven days after those killings, McKee was still employed as a vascular surgeon at an Illinois hospital. Credentialed. On staff. Working.How did he get that license in the first place? A malpractice attorney in Nevada had been trying to serve McKee for two years. The addresses McKee's surgical group provided didn't exist. His Nevada medical license had expired. And yet Illinois granted him credentials in 2024.This isn't just a McKee problem. This is a system problem. The National Practitioner Data Bank was created by Congress in 1986 specifically to stop doctors from hopping state lines to escape their past. But the public can't access it. And a USA Today investigation found that thirteen state medical boards didn't perform a single NPDB search in an entire year.Over 500 doctors disciplined in one state are practicing elsewhere with clean records. More than 250 who surrendered their licenses were able to practice in new states - a third with zero limitations. They call it "passing the trash" in education, and there's federal law against it for teachers. For doctors? Nothing.Tonight we examine the systemic failures that allowed Michael McKee to get licensed - and how many doctors just like him might be operating on patients right now.#MichaelMcKee #MoniqueTepe #SpencerTepe #HiddenKillers #TrueCrime #MedicalMalpractice #StateMedicalBoard #PatientSafety #DoctorDiscipline #PassingTheTrashJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

They found him at his mother's house in Helena, Montana. Neo Langston — Twitch streamer, content creator, and close friend of D4VD — was arrested Thursday on a felony warrant for failing to appear as a witness. By Friday night, he was booked into LAPD's Metropolitan Detention Center on $60,000 bail.The unit that tracked him down? LAPD Robbery-Homicide — the same division investigating the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. The 15-year-old's remains were discovered in D4VD's Tesla last September, dismembered and decomposing, one day after what would have been her birthday.Neo isn't the only witness giving prosecutors problems. A female witness went into hiding in December and had to be threatened with arrest. D4VD's manager testified that his priority was the tour — not calling police. And D4VD himself hasn't said a word since the body was identified.Investigators have reportedly identified a second suspect involved "before, during, and after" Celeste's death. Tesla data allegedly shows two people present during a late-night trip to remote Santa Barbara County last spring. The question now: Is Neo that second suspect, or just a witness who knows too much?D4VD has not been charged. Neo faces only failure to appear charges. All individuals are presumed innocent. But the pattern is clear — everyone around David Anthony Burke is either silent, running, or being dragged into court.#HiddenKillers #D4VD #NeoLangston #CelesteRivas #TrueCrime #GrandJury #LAPD #CelesteRivasHernandez #NeoTheAsian #JusticeForCelesteJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A professor allegedly told colleagues to "mark my words" — if they gave Bryan Kohberger a PhD, he'd eventually stalk and abuse students. Thirteen complaints filed in one semester. Women so scared they needed security escorts to their cars. And according to a new lawsuit, WSU's biggest concern was getting sued by the stalker, not protecting the students he was allegedly terrorizing. The families of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin have filed a 126-page wrongful death suit against Washington State University, and the allegations are devastating. We're breaking down your questions: How do thirteen complaints result in nothing? What does Title IX actually require? Why was Kohberger finally fired right around the time of the murders — and what changed? The lawsuit reveals staff created secret email chains to warn each other when he was around. Students kept a tally board of his discriminatory comments. He was literally studying sexually motivated burglars while allegedly exhibiting predatory behavior himself. And four kids who didn't even attend WSU are dead because this university allegedly looked the other way. We discuss whether this case settles or goes to discovery, what Steve Goncalves is really fighting for, and whether lawsuits like this ever actually change institutional behavior.#BryanKohberger #WSULawsuit #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #IdahoFour #WashingtonStateUniversity #HiddenKillers #InstitutionalFailureJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
