Defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes both major murder case developments this week—with a focus on what McKee-Tepe tells us about high-stakes defense strategy.

Michael McKee pleaded not guilty to four counts of aggravated murder in the deaths of Monique Tepe and Spencer Tepe. His attorney is Diane Menashe—who got Dr. William Husel acquitted of fourteen murders by calling one witness and letting the prosecution's case collapse under its own weight. The prosecution has ballistics matching McKee's firearm to shell casings at the scene, surveillance footage, vehicle tracking, and a suppressor specification. Menashe's philosophy: don't present a defense, destroy the prosecution's case.

We also cover Aaron Spencer's case because it illustrates the opposite approach—an active, affirmative defense of self-defense and defense-of-others. The Arkansas Supreme Court just removed his judge for constitutional violations. Spencer killed his daughter's alleged rapist and faces second-degree murder. The defense has to prove he acted lawfully while countering prior statements the prosecution will use for premeditation.

Bob Motta breaks down both strategies. How Menashe could attack the McKee evidence. How the Spencer defense should proceed with a new judge. What both cases reveal about murder defense in America.
