Authorities allege a vehicle connected to Monique Tepe’s ex-husband Michael David McKee was seen near her Ohio home around the time of the killings

The man charged in connection with the murders of a beloved Ohio dentist and his wife was once married to one of the victims for less than two years.

Michael David McKee, 39, has been arrested on murder charges in connection with the Dec. 30 killings of Monique and Spencer Tepe in Columbus, Ohio.

Monique, 39, was briefly married to McKee over a decade ago before she filed for divorce in June 2017, according to court filings reviewed for PEOPLE. The couple had wed in August 2015.

The filings reveal the former couple lived together for only eight months of that marriage, separating in March 2016.

In a divorce petition filed by Monique in June 2017, Monique claimed the two were “incompatible.”
