It began early Tuesday morning, when concern begin to grow around a home on the 1400 block of North 4th Street in Columbus’s Weinland Park neighborhood.

A coworker and neighbor had both independently reported they had been unable to reach the couple who lived there. Just after 10 a.m., officers were asked to check on the residence to conduct a welfare check.

Inside the home, police located Spencer Tepe, 37, and his wife Monique Tepe, 39. Authorities have not said when either was last seen or heard from. Spencer Tepe worked as a dentist at Athens Dental Depot.

The couple’s two young children, both under six, were also inside the house but were not physically harmed. Investigators have not said how long the children had been there before officers arrived.
Police reported no signs of forced entry and said no firearm was located at the scene. For now, there have been no suspect(s) identified.

What investigators are now trying to piece together is the timeline. Specifically, the gap between when contact with the family stopped and when concern finally reached police a stretch of hours, tha hold the key to understanding what happened inside the home.

Spencer Tepe had grown up here in the Cincinninati area, living in Mason before attending Ohio State University, where he earned his doctorate of dental surgery degree. He later worked as a dentist at Athens Dental Depot.

According to reporting from WSYX ABC6 in Columbus, Spencer and Monique Tepe married in 2021 and were just a few weeks away from marking their fifth wedding anniversary. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to call Columbus Police.

In the early hours of January 1st, 1953, American country singer Hank Williams was traveling overnight to a scheduled New Year’s Day appearance when the trip took an unexpected turn.

Williams was riding in the back seat of his light-blue Cadillac, driven by his chauffeur, Charles Carr. The trip began in Knoxville, Tennessee, and was headed north to Canton, Ohio. As the car passed through Oak Hill, West Virginia, it was pulled over for speeding.

A highway patrolman looked into the back seat and remarked that Williams appeared lifeless, but the officer concluded the traffic stop and allowed the Carr to continue on down the road.

A short time later, Carr stopped for fuel at a service station in Oak Hill. When he checked on Williams more closely, he realized he was unresponsive. Carr then drove directly to Oak Hill Hospital, where Williams was pronounced dead. He was 29 years old.

Williams had lived with ongoing health issues and had been under a doctor's care. In the end, his death was later attributed to heart failure related to a medical complication alcohol.

Just weeks later, Your Cheatin’ Heart, recorded the previous September, was released and remained at number one on the country charts for six weeks. Another recording, Take These Chains From My Heart, reached the top spot the following April, ensuring that his voice continued to dominate the airwaves long after his final ride.
