Biography
Doctor Gregory Tepper was the medical examiner for New York City. When the family of Frank Castle was brutally murdered at the carousel in Central Park, Doctor Tepper was coerced into doctoring the autopsy report. He was also made to alter another autopsy connected to the crimes.

After murdering more than thirty known criminals, Frank Castle was captured and brought to trial. His attorneys at Nelson & Murdock suspected that Tepper's autopsy report have been altered as his findings did not correspond with Castle's account of the incident. As Tepper was a prosecution witness, they suspected that he might have been in the pocket of District Attorney Samantha Reyes.

A secret ally and former girlfriend of Matt Murdock, Elektra Natchios, tried to free up some of Matt's time so he could assist her with an altogether different matter. Hoping to speed the trial along, she broke into Tepper's home and terrorized him, threatening to kill unless he confessed to forging the autopsy at the trial.

The following day, Doctor Tepper gave his testimony to the open court. Before he could be excused, he told the judge that he had something else to say. Judge Cynthia Batzer cleared the jury box and the gallery and listened to Tepper, who told her that he had altered the Castle family autopsy reports.
