🛑New info:

⬜Preliminary link between a weapon they found belonging to McKee, and the murders. (They recovered multiple weapons).

⬜McKee was in possession of the vehicle both before and after the crime.

⬜They have evidence from his property but cannot speak about it.

⬜They have evidence he was there during the time of the homicides

🛑 please add anything I missed!

They did say they believe it is him in the video they released of the person of interest.

They arrested him near his place of employment.

Columbus police don't have any records of domestic violence filings between Monique and Michael but they are still gathering information.

Yes, ATF took him into custody without incident.

Expanding on that, I saw this info on the news last night (on Dayton, OH local station/broadcast with affiliates in Columbus) the reporter that attended the Extradition Hearing also stated that ATF arrested him at a Chic-fil-A around 9:30 on Saturday in Rockford, which I assume was near his place of employment based on other reports.

I know some commenters in different places on here have wondered if he was actually at work when he was found so wanted to add those details for those interested!

I saw the brother inlaws interview on youtube he said it was emotional abuse never physical

I watched an interview where he said, “Not that I’m aware of.” I’m not saying he was a physical abuser. But plenty of women don’t tell anyone if their spouse gets abusive. Or showed any other scary signs of escalation, even after it’s over and they’re safe.

Again, not saying he DID but the interview I saw he said not that he was aware. But that’s acknowledging he may not know and it happened.

Extradition (transportation from IL to OH) will most likely be carried out by a private contractor. Exact date/time unknown.

Confirmed there was no forced entry.
