Summary
A disturbing Ohio double murder is raising serious questions after a dentist and his wife were found shot to death inside their home while their young children were left unharmed. As investigators search for answers, a chilling detail has taken on new importance: a neighbor called 911 days earlier reporting a stranger banging on her door in the middle of the night just steps away from the victims’ home. In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down the murders of Spencer and Monique Tepe and the troubling puzzle pieces that do not add up, including the neighbor’s 911 call, eerie coincidences, unexplained timeline gaps, and the lingering question of whether this was a random stranger or something far more sinister.

| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone. I'm Ashley Banfield and this is Drop Dead Serious. In this episode, we are digging into that heinous double murder in Columbus, Ohio. |
| 0:14.5 | And honestly, fair warning, there is a lot of information that I'm about to unload on you. So like take a note or get a drink, |
| 0:22.8 | one of the two. But this mystery is deepening by the minute. Every single day, there's a lack of |
| 0:31.1 | information from the police, but then something that the true crime community finds out that |
| 0:35.8 | suddenly makes it even weirder, right? |
| 0:39.3 | It's been nine days, right? I'm recording this on January the 8th. |
| 0:44.3 | And wouldn't you know it, another 911 call. Not from this house. We've already talked about 911 calls, both from inside this house and from outside the house. |
| 0:54.6 | People, you know, trying desperately to figure out where the Tepe family was the morning they were found murdered. |
| 1:00.9 | But this call is from down the street and it's 11 days before the murders. |
| 1:08.3 | And it's crazy. |
| 1:10.4 | Someone is smashing and banging on the front door of this |
| 1:15.5 | poor victim's house, and they're calling 911, and guess what? It's right in the middle of the |
| 1:20.8 | night at the same time that the TEPPs were murdered. So I'm going to get into that. But also, |
| 1:26.9 | there's something that's been weighing on me a lot. |
| 1:29.8 | And that is these little kids that were left behind with their parents murdered in the house. |
| 1:34.9 | So one of them is a one-year-old. That child is not going to provide a lot of clues, right? |
| 1:40.1 | Probably inarticulate at this point, can't speak. But the four-year-old, the four-year-old could |
| 1:47.8 | really help. I know you probably think I'm crazy, but there is forensics that apply to little |
| 1:55.6 | people. It is a unique art. It is extremely specialized. |
| 2:01.6 | And forensic interviews of children in crimes has yielded convictions in the past. |
| 2:10.6 | You're going to see something tonight. Get your Kleenex. It will make you cry. |
| 2:14.6 | I covered the case. Gosh, 15, 20 years ago, it was so sad. This little boy, |
