WYOMING, MI -- The social media presence of Michigan triple-homicide suspect Brady Oestrike shows a heavy focus on guns and gun rights.

Oestrike is suspected of killing Charles Oppenneer, 25, and Brooke Slocum, 18, before he took his own life after a police chase about 9:15 p.m. Thursday, July 17. Slocum was eight months pregnant at the time of her death.

On his Facebook page, Oestrike's main photo shows a cartoon character holding a gun and with a machine gun feed around her neck. In various posts, he champions gun rights. One picture shows a sheep armed with a type of grenade or rocket launcher.

Police say Oestrike is suspected of killing Oppenneer and Slocum sometime on or after the evening of July 12. Police determined Slocum had contacted Oestrike, 31, via Craigslist just before midnight on July 12.

Police with an Internet Crimes Against Children task force later used Slocum's computer to track her conversations and find Oestrike's residence.

Police planned to execute a search warrant and surrounded his residence at Porter Street and Taft Avenue on Thursday night, but he ended up getting in his Chevy Cobalt before police were ready to act.

A pursuit ensued and Oestrike crashed the car along Burton Street at U.S. 131. Police said they believe he then shot himself.

Officers found Slocum's body in the car trunk. Oppenneer's body was found Wednesday, July 16, in woods near Gezon Park.

In a later search of Oestrike's residence, police found "a number of assault-type rifles."

Oestrike also has shown a presence on AR15.com forums, talking about guns and triggers. He also is described as a "junior member" on Armslist.com.

Oerstrike's Facebook photos show that he may have participated in some sort of medieval re-enactments at some point. He is shown with swords in one photo.

The photos also show a softer side. He is pictured holding a baby in another photo.

In one of the photos with him holding a baby, a handgun can be seen on a table next to him.
