Dentist Spencer Tepe, 37, and his wife Monique, 39, were discovered murdered in their Columbus home on December 30th following Spencer's absence from work. Police obtained surveillance footage showing a suspicious individual in light-colored pants and a dark hooded coat walking through a nearby alley during the estimated time of the murders, between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. The couple's two young children, ages 1 and 4, were found unharmed inside the home. Forensic evidence indicates Spencer sustained multiple gunshot wounds while Monique was shot at least once in the chest.

Notably, no weapon was recovered at the scene and there were no signs of forced entry, leading authorities to rule out a murder-suicide. The investigation remains active as police pursue leads from community tips, with the surveillance footage serving as crucial evidence in their search for the perpetrator.
