| gerald and charlene gallego son: Quicklet on R. Barri Flowers' The Sex Slave Murders: The True Story of Serial Killers Gerald and Charlene Gallego Taj Shareef, 2012-03-02 Quicklets: Your Reading Sidekick! ABOUT THE BOOK In the world where information and news flow freely through any number of mediums, we are exposed to the sometimes all-too-real existence of violence in the world. The heinous acts of serial-killer couple, Gerald Armond Gallego and wife Charlene Adelle Gallego exemplify the darkness in humanity that if left unchecked could wreak havoc on countless lives. The Sex Slave Murders chronicles the tumultuous lives of the Gallegos from their early beginnings culminating in a sinister coupling that resulted in the deaths of 11 people across three states between 1978-1980. Criminologist and author R. Barri Flowers followed the case, and wrote his account nearly ten years after the murderous pair were arrested by authorities in 1982. The author highlights differences in the upbringing of the unlikely twosome, noting the chaotic and abusive home of Gerald Gallego as opposed to the charm school life led by his wife and partner (then Charlene Williams). The author explores the circumstances that not only led the killers to committing their string of crimes, but also the bizarre bond they formed as husband and wife, when the pair made history as the first serial-killing couple in the United States. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Following a brief interaction with the cars occupants, it speeds away Craig and Mary Beth are never seen alive again. Fortunately, said acquaintance of Sowers and Miller had the foresight to write down the license plate number of the car where he last saw the victims, information that would eventually help to bring about the arrests of Gerald and Charlene Gallego, ending their violent quest to find the perfect sex slave. At this point, readers are given some individual history. Gerald Armond Gallego was born in July of 1946 in Sacramento, California. He had a difficult childhood without a father in his life and a prostitute mother. Though Gerald would have father figures in his life, they would seldom get along. He instead began to follow in the footsteps of the father he never met, building his own list of crimes and misdeeds: burglary, running away, and lascivious sex acts with a six-year-old. Gerald would spend time in a few different youth criminal facilities until he would finally be paroled in 1963. Gerald would also spend sometime in the California Medical Facility to be treated for depression. By 1977 Gerald had been married and divorced five times, all of Geralds ex-wives confirming that he was physically abusive... Buy a copy to keep reading! CHAPTER OUTLINE R.

| gerald and charlene gallego son: The Serial Killer Files Harold Schechter, 2003-12-30 THE DEFINITIVE DOSSIER ON HISTORY’S MOST HEINOUS! Hollywood’s make-believe maniacs like Jason, Freddy, and Hannibal Lecter can’t hold a candle to real life monsters like John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and scores of others who have terrorized, tortured, and terminated their way across civilization throughout the ages. Now, from the much-acclaimed author of Deviant, Deranged, and Depraved, comes the ultimate resource on the serial killer phenomenon. Rigorously researched and packed with the most terrifying, up-to-date information, this innovative and highly compelling compendium covers every aspect of multiple murderers–from psychology to cinema, fetishism to fan clubs, “trophies” to trading cards. Discover: WHO THEY ARE: Those featured include Ed Gein, the homicidal mama’s boy who inspired fiction’s most famous Psycho, Norman Bates; Angelo Buono and Kenneth Bianchi, sex-crazed killer cousins better known as the Hillside Stranglers; and the Beanes, a fifteenth-century cave-dwelling clan with an insatiable appetite for human flesh HOW THEY KILL: They shoot, stab, and strangle. Butcher, bludgeon, and burn. Drown, dismember, and devour . . . and other methods of massacre too many and monstrous to mention here. WHY THEY DO IT: For pleasure and for profit. For celebrity and for “companionship.” For the devil and for dinner. For the thrill of it, for the hell of it, and because “such men are monsters, who live . . . beyond the frontiers of madness.” PLUS: in-depth case studies, classic killers’ nicknames, definitions of every kind of deviance and derangement, and much, much more. For more than one hundred profiles of lethal loners and killer couples, Bluebeards and black widows, cannibals and copycats– this is an indispensable, spine-tingling, eye-popping investigation into the dark hearts and mad minds of that twisted breed of human whose crimes are the most frightening . . . and fascinating. |
| gerald and charlene gallego son: Team Killers Jennifer Furio, 2001 In this eerie study of what drives (or allows) people to kill in a team setting, even when they had no criminal history on their own, Furio's personal correspondence and telephone conversations with death-row inmates lend immediacy to the analysis of the phenomenon of the deadly duo. The unthinkable crimes sketched in this book show that it is just as chancy to accept a ride offered by a couple as it is to hop into a car driven by a single male. Simply stated, couples or groups that kill usually have perverted tendencies as individuals, but it is only when they come together that their combined personality becomes lethal. How does it happen, and what can be done to prevent it? What are the differences between killers who act on their own, and those who prefer to take a partner? What goes through the partners' minds, years later, when they reflect on what they've done? |

Découvrez une analyse inédite de faits de société encore inexplorés, notamment l’intimité des couples assassins. EXTRAIT Onze jours plus tard, le 23 juin, les corps de deux autres femmes furent découverts. Tout d’abord, à l’aube, la police de Los Angeles trouva le corps de Karen Jones, une prostituée, le long d’une route un peu isolée. Elle avait été tuée d’une balle dans la tête avec un pistolet de petit calibre. Le même jour, vers 7 h 15 du matin, le corps nu et sans tête d’une femme d’une vingtaine d’années fut découvert à côté d’une poubelle à l’arrière d’un restaurant. La victime fut rapidement identifiée. Il s’agissait d’Exxie Wilson, une prostituée et amie de Karen Jones. Les policiers entamèrent des recherches approfondies dans les alentours pour retrouver la tête. Mais malgré leurs efforts, ils n’obtinrent aucun résultat. À ce stade de l’enquête, la police de Los Angeles ne disposait d’aucune piste qui aurait pu mener au tueur. Le 27 juin, vers une heure du matin, Jonathan Caravello roulait dans l’allée qui longeait son appartement. Il essaya de garer sa voiture, mais il rencontra un obstacle. Une étrange boîte en bois obstruait le passage. Intrigué, Caravello s’en approcha. En se penchant au-dessus pour soulever le couvercle, une odeur étrange s’en dégagea. Il vit une forme enveloppée dans un blue jean et un t-shirt. Il eut la frayeur de sa vie quand il constata que cette forme était une tête humaine. Il put voir qu’il s’agissait d’une femme brune, sa bouche était légèrement ouverte. |

This engrossing collection of illustrated true-crime profiles details the unthinkable exploits of a rogue’s gallery that includes—in addition to Jeffrey Dahmer, Aileen Wuornos, and Gary Ridgway—Samuel Little and Joseph James DeAngelo, serial murderers whose criminal legacies are still making headlines today. |

This historical analysis examines the social, political and economic contexts in which the justice system has put women to death, revealing a pattern of patriarchal domination and female subordination. The book includes a discussion of condemned women granted executive clemency and judicial commutations, an inquiry into women falsely convicted in potentially capital cases and a profile of the current female death row population. |
| gerald and charlene gallego son: Histoires d'enlèvements Mireille Thibault, 2020-04-28 Il n’est rien de pire pour un parent que de voir disparaître son enfant sans jamais parvenir à savoir ce qui lui est arrivé. Au fil du temps, et malgré les avancées sociologiques, le nombre d’enlèvements, partout dans le monde, reste très élevé. Curieusement, ces kidnappings peuvent tout autant être perpétrés par des hommes et des femmes adultes que par des enfants ou des adolescents. Les motivations des ravisseurs s’avèrent diverses et variées. Certains agissent pour le plaisir de commettre un crime, d’autres pour répondre à un besoin sexuel, par esprit de vengeance ou encore pour assouvir une pulsion de violence. Mais aussi nombreux que soient les mobiles, il est possible cependant de déterminer des modes d’action récurrents et plus ou moins ciblés, plus particulièrement de la part des kidnappeurs adultes. Une telle typologie peut mener à définir des modes de prévention à mettre en place afin de protéger leurs éventuelles victimes. Mireille Thibault recense dans cet ouvrage 152 cas d’enlèvements en déterminant les motifs du passage à l’acte permettant d’appréhender les modes d’action des ravisseurs. |
| gerald and charlene gallego son: Serial Killers: The World's Most Evil Nigel Blundell, 2010-11-10 One hundred years of the most depraved criminal minds—from H. H. Holmes and Ted Bundy to John Wayne Gacy, Ian Brady, and Myra Hindley. Their monikers have become part of the true crime lexicon: among them, the Moors Murders; the Hillside Strangler; Killer Clown; Son of Sam; the Love Slave Killers; the Scorecard Killer; and the BTK Strangler. On a scale of evil, they are the world’s worst serial murderers with a propensity for sadism and torture that is beyond the pale. What turned seemingly ordinary members of society into sick slayers? How did they justify their heinous deeds? And how did they get away with murder? For answers, true crime journalist Nigel Blundell looks behind the headlines to delve into the minds of monsters: David Parker Ray an “average working guy” with a torture chamber in his backyard; Fred and Rose West, married serial killers who counted their own children among their victims; Ivan Milat, a ritual killer who hunted backpackers in Australia; Gerald and Charlene Gallego, a sadistic couple who cruised Sacramento with kidnapping and murder in mind; and former Marines Leonard Lake and Charles Ng, who videotaped the darkest depths of their depravity in their secluded cabin in the Sierra Nevada foothills. Discover the truth behind the unspeakable crimes in this “anthology of evil . . . you can’t put down” (Dr. Michael Stone, forensic psychiatrist). |

| gerald and charlene gallego son: American Doom Loop Dale Maharidge, 2024-04-16 Much of the contemporary crazy can be traced to the 1980s—America of the 2020s is living with the cultural shapeshifting rooted in that decade. Americans lived in a different reality in 1980: Vermont was the only state that let residents carry a concealed firearm without a permit. Twenty-four states now allow this—and numerous other gun laws have fallen by the wayside. When police were accused of wrongdoing, the default answer from society’s arbiters—courts, politicians, newspaper editors—was: “The police wouldn’t lie.” Editors steered clear of stories about rape and sexual violence. The word “homeless” wasn’t in common use. The fabric of the middle class had not yet begun fraying. America of the 2020s is living with cultural shapeshifting rooted in the 1980s. History, of course, is not a snapshot—it’s a film. To understand the United States today, we have to know the 1980s. American Doom Loop chronicles the first part of that moving picture, then brings the story forward. As a newspaper journalist, Dale Maharidge had a front-row seat to this decade, immersed in disparate worlds. He was in the Philippines during the last days of Dictator Ferdinand Marcos, witnessing the US lose a critical piece of its empire dating to the Spanish–American War; he traveled to Central America where the East-West conflict was playing out by proxy; he smuggled a Salvadoran family marked by death squads, driving them through trackless desert to the US border; he embedded with a group that was a precursor to the Oath Keepers; and he investigated police, who kept trying to get him fired. Through it all, Maharidge gained an invaluable view of a complicated decade that offers insight into our society today. |
| gerald and charlene gallego son: Voodoo Killers Joseph Carlson, The art of murder knows many forms, but few more harrowing than murder for reasons of ritual or the supernatural. Supposedly serving a higher cause, they are often little more than acts of self-gratifying blood-lust. Voodoo Killers chronicles the disturbing history of ritualistic killing around the world, with shocking examples of human sacrifice from past and present, voodoo hexes, sexual slavery and satanic murder. It is a history that incorporates vampires, serial killers and rapists as well as institutionalized killers such as the Aztec high priests and Spanish Inquisitors whomurdered in the name of religion. Murder does not come much worse than this – premeditated, organized, ritualized and, in the past,accepted as permissible. The Voodoo Killers stand alone in the annals of horror. |
