Drop Dead Serious With Ashleigh Banfield

A Utah mother is accused of abducting her own four children and fleeing the country, triggering an international manhunt involving local police and federal authorities. Police and family members point to alarming TikTok videos in which she allegedly spoke about receiving dreams from God, warned of the “end times,” claimed Salt Lake City would be destroyed, referenced natural disasters, and urged others to “brace for the apocalypse.” 35-year-old Elleshia Anne Seymour is charged with four counts of custodial interference and removing a child from the state after investigators say she disappeared with her children on November 29, leaving behind an unlocked home in West Jordan, Utah. Police say Seymour shares custody with two fathers, neither of whom consented to any travel. The missing children are 11-year-old Landon Seymour, 8-year-old Levi Parker Seymour, 7-year-old Hazel Raye Seymour, and 3-year-old Jacob Kurt Brady. Court documents reveal that Seymour’s vehicle was found abandoned at Salt Lake City International Airport, and surveillance footage tracked her boarding a one-way international flight with all four children. Authorities later confirmed the family traveled through Europe and ultimately landed in Croatia.

Michael McKee, a former surgeon and the ex-husband of Monique Tepe, has been extradited back to Ohio after his arrest out of state. Prosecutors allege McKee secretly entered the Tepe home and carried out the execution-style murders of Monique Tepe and her husband, Spencer Tepe, in what authorities describe as a calculated and violent attack. Now jailed in Franklin County, McKee awaits his next court appearance as the case moves forward. But what really happens to a high-profile defendant once the cell door closes? In this episode, Ashleigh Banfield is joined by Larry Levine, founder of Wall Street Prison Consultants-- a former federal inmate who now advises white-collar criminals, celebrities, and high-profile defendants on surviving incarceration.

Police say this was not a crime of passion, not a botched home invasion, and not a jealous husband snapping in the moment, but a meticulously planned double murder allegedly orchestrated by a federal agent who was living a secret double life with his family’s au pair. In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down the shocking prosecution theory against Brendan Banfield, a Virginia IRS agent accused of catfishing an unsuspecting man through BDSM websites, luring him into the Banfield home under false pretenses, and then staging a brutal scene that left his wife, Christine Banfield, stabbed to death and Joseph Ryan shot and killed inside their million-dollar Fairfax County home. Prosecutors allege Banfield and his young Brazilian au pair, Juliana Perez Magalhães, carried out an elaborate plot involving fake online identities, Telegram calls, decoy 911 calls, McDonald’s drive-through alibis, sound-dampening windows, gun-range training, and a plan to make Banfield look like the hero who stopped a violent intruder.

A grand jury has returned sweeping new charges in the murders of Spencer Tepe and Monique Tepe, indicting Monique’s ex-husband, Illinois vascular surgeon Michael McKee, on four counts of aggravated murder and an additional burglary charge. Court records reveal new details about how investigators believe the killings were planned, including evidence prosecutors say points to deliberate preparation and intent. In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield breaks down what the indictment reveals, why the aggravated murder charges matter, and how this case against a high-achieving surgeon and former spouse is rapidly escalating.

Phantom Court Clerical Error? Family members say the warning signs were there long before Spencer and Monique Tepe were brutally murdered inside their Columbus, Ohio home, but one strange detail in the court system has raised a disturbing new question. Just months before the killings, Ohio court records show a divorce hearing was mistakenly scheduled in the long-closed case between Monique and her ex-husband, surgeon Michael McKee. The court later called it a clerical error, saying the hearing was canceled and issued by mistake, but the timing has fueled intense scrutiny over whether a clerical error or a docket mistake could have reopened old wounds.
