Michael McKee's Alleged 8-Year Obsession: Psychotherapist Analyzes Monique Tepe Murder Psychology

Описание: Seven months of marriage. Eight years of alleged obsession. And a double homicide that prosecutors say was planned down to the suppressor on the weapon.
Michael McKee is charged with murdering his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer while their children — ages one and four — slept in another room. According to the indictment, McKee allegedly drove six hours from Chicago, entered without forced entry at 3:52 AM, killed them both, and drove back. Family members say Monique had been terrified of McKee for eight years. She talked about death threats. She warned people. She never filed a police report.
Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent thirty years working with both victims and perpetrators of violence. She's the author of "The Minds of Mass Killers" — and she's also a survivor. Her own ex-husband died by revenge suicide after she asked for divorce. She understands this territory from every angle.
Today we're going deep into the psychology of the obsessive ex. What happens inside a mind that allegedly can't let go for eight years? How does a successful surgeon allegedly compartmentalize this level of fixation while maintaining a high-functioning career? What role does watching a victim thrive — new marriage, new children, five-year anniversary — play in allegedly pushing someone from obsession to action?
Then we turn to the victim experience. Monique recognized the danger fast and got out in seven months. She moved on. She rebuilt. She did everything we tell victims to do. And she's still dead. What does that mean for how we talk about domestic violence survival? What are families missing when fear is visible but the threat doesn't feel imminent?
Two children are now orphans. A community is shattered. And the hardest question remains: when someone allegedly refuses to let go, what actually protects victims — or is the honest answer that sometimes nothing does?
