A man is accused of murdering his girlfriend then posting nude pictures of her and the crime scene online.
David Kalac, 33, was arrested following a high-speed chase after the body of Amber Coplin was found in her home.
Images of her nude body were allegedly posted by Kalac on the image-sharing website 4chan, according to police.
When users responded by questioning if the pictures were genuine, Kalac allegedly responded: "Check the news for Port orchard, Washington, in a few hours. Her son will be home from school soon."

"He'll find her then call the cops. I just wanted to share the pics before they find me.
"I bought a bb gun that looks realistic enough. When they come, I'll pull it and it will be suicide by cop.
"I understand the doubts. Just check the f***ing news. I have to lose my phone now."

4chan is the same site where nude pictures of celebrities were leaked in August.
Police said they were called by Miss Coplin's 13-year-old son who discovered his mother's body.
"She killed me first" was written on the bedroom wall, and "bad news" was written on the window blinds, investigators said.
Police said Kalac fled in 30-year-old Coplin's car after the murder but they were able to trace him through his mobile phone.
He was arrested early this morning and charged with second-degree murder and domestic violence in Kitsap County, Washington.
The judge said his bail would be set at $2 million after capture.
