  • BIZARRE: BRIEF "STARTER MARRIAGE" CLUE, DENTIST & WIFE MURDERS @ HOME, TOT KIDS ASLEEP
    Jan 12 2026

    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.

  • BEAUTY-QUEEN-CHEERLEADER'S BABY DEAD IN CLOSET, GRAND JURY SET: LAKEN SNELLING
    Jan 11 2026

    New details are emerging in the case of a 21-year-old college student and cheerleader from the University of Kentucky accused of hiding her newborn inside her college apartment closet.

    Laken Snelling's case is on its way to a grand jury. The panel is expected to hear evidence in late January. The grand jury will likely be asked to indict Snelling on the three charges she initially pleaded not guilty to, and there’s possibly a count of murder or manslaughter depending on the newborn's autopsy results.

    Laken Snelling is arrested after her infant is found dead in a trash bag inside the closet. An autopsy report only deepens the mystery surrounding the infant's death because the results are found to be inconclusive. Snelling posted baby bump pics before her infant was found dead.

    Authorities allege Snelling gave birth in secret, wrapped her baby in a towel, placed him in a trash bag, and left him in her closet.

    According to an arrest report, Lexington police were called to a home on Park Avenue for an unresponsive infant on Wednesday. Police said they found a baby's body in a closet, wrapped in a towel inside a black trash bag.

    The UK cheerleader is now charged with abuse of a corpse, tampering with evidence, and concealing the birth of an infant.

    Court records show Snelling took selfies during the birth.
