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.

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…
