WYOMING, Mich. -- Brady Oestrike strangled eight months pregnant Brooke Slocum after he had held her captive for a period, Wyoming Police Chief James Carmody said Monday at a morning news conference.

Chief Carmody started with a warning that the details of the case were "disturbing." He then said that the events that led to the murders of Slocum, Charles Oppenneer, their unborn child and the suicide of Oestrike began with an arrangement made on Craigslist to meet for sex between Oestrike and Slocum with Oppenneer present.

He then described how, after Oppenneer's body was found, the head was missing, and it remains unfound despite assistance in the search from an Michigan State Police helicopter and trained dogs.
