Nefataree Bartell is last seen on February 21, 2023. 

Bartell and her dog, Nova, were seen walking in the snow; a woman stopped to offer the 26-year-old a ride. Bartell had an address of a cabin. The driver took Bartell to Gold Creek Road and left her there to walk the rest of the way to her destination.

The driver, though, was concerned about a very pregnant Nefataree hiking the rest of the way in the snow. 

As soon as the driver got to the highway, she called the sheriff's department. She told police that she had a "bad feeling" and asked them to do a wellness check on Bartell. It didn't happen.

Eight days later, the dog was found alive and well-nourished. Bartell has not been seen since. 

UPDATE 5/5:  Crime Stories is very grateful to Charlene Bartell taking the time to talk with us about her daughter. We have learned that Nefataree Bartell's body has been found. Our condolences to the family.

Michael McKee's charges are upgraded to four counts of aggravated murder in the deaths of his ex-wife, Monique Tepe, and her husband, Spencer.

The indictment specifies that the firearm used by McKee was equipped with a muffler or suppressor, commonly referred to as a "silencer." McKee also faces an additional charge of aggravated burglary for allegedly breaking into the Tepe home to commit the murders.

Police say McKee is the person captured on video walking in the alley behind the Tepe home between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. the morning of the murders.

Using license plate reader data and surveillance technology, detectives track McKee's vehicle traveling approximately 325 miles from Illinois to Columbus, Ohio, arriving shortly before the murders and leaving soon after.

Investigators have yet to mention a motive for the murders, labeling the killings as "domestic violence-related."

McKee and Monique were married for a short period of time and have been divorced since 2017, but a clerical error caused the divorce case to receive a new hearing date, appearing on the docket for this past June and showing a trial date for September, just three months before the murders.

When court officials determine it is a clerical error, the court date for September is cancelled.​
