Summary
By the time a friend arrives at the Tepe home, the couple's infant son, Beckham, had been stuck in his cage...hungry, crying, for hours.
Family members do not believe the 17-month-old or his older sister, Emilia, witness the murder of their parents, as they both have their own private bedrooms.
Accused killer Michael McKee waived extradition with the transfer back to Ohio, taking 10 days. In Columbus, McKee is booked into the new, state-of-the-art James A. Karnes Corrections Center.
The facility, designed using the best features of the most modern jail facilities in the country, enhances the Division of Corrections commitment to reducing recidivism and increasing public safety through effective reentry programs.
At his arraignment, McKee pleaded not guilty, and waived a request for bond. McKee will remain in Karnes Corrections Center until his attorney seeks bail or the case goes to trial.
