Charlene's History
Charlene Gallego was born Charlene Adelle Williams, she was born near Sacramento, California, in October 1956. Her father Charles was a respected entrepreneur who was the vice president of a supermarket chain. He and his wife Mercedes often traveled as part of their business life. Early school reports suggest Charlene was a quiet and shy child, who had a good attendence. Charlene's mother was hurt badly in a car accident, leaving her injured, this was the reason she stopped traveling around with her husband.

Charlene took over her mothers duties, and would often travel with her father on business trips, it was there she was often praised by her fathers clients for being an intelligent and well-spoken child. But by high school Charlene was taking drugs and bragged to friends about her black lover.

Charlene married a young, wealthy man who was sadly a heroin addict. He claimed that Charlene was obessed with lesbian sex and begged him to have a threesome with her and a prostitute. She was also using a large amount of drugs and didn't care about her appearance. Her first husband hated that Charlene's parents also intervened in their relationship, so the marriage soon failed and they got divorced. Charlene's next husband was a soldier who Charlene described as a "Mothers boy". She grew bored of him and they got divorced. Charlene then had an affair with a married man who soon ended the relationship after she asked if they could have sex with his wife. After the break-up she attempted the suicide but survived. It was not long after this she met Gerald.

Gerald's History
Gerald's own background was a brutal one. Her mother and her numerous boyfriends had beaten him during his formative years-and when his mother became a prostitute Gerald was abused by some of her clients. He was often left hungry and dirty, and was always pleading to be held and hugged. His natural father, who had played no part in his life, was executed for killing two policemen. Like Charlene, Gerald had failed as a lover and spouse and had married numerous women but left them after they had ran out of money. He also started sexually abusing his daughter. Gerald liked rough sex and Charlene responded to this. At first their sex life was so good that they couldn't get enough of eachother. Gerald particularly enjoyed sodomising Charlene, but she later said in court that she hated the painful experiance.

Together At last
Charlene was sexually submissive, sexual submission relies strongly on conversational powerplay. The submissive often indicates the dominant party what he or she enjoys so in a way, it is the submissive that's in charge. Charlene was disliked in work for being to flirtacious with her male co-workers, but she wanted a man who would take charge and be dominant. Gerald appeared streetwise and very masterful.

Within a week of meeting, the new couple had rented a house and moved in together. Gerald soon moved beyond flowers and chocolates and Charlene accepted that he was more interested in his own sexual satisfication. Charlene was fascinated by his machismo and was soon sharing in his illicit fantasies.

After they had been cohabitating for a few months, Gerald brought home a sixteen year old dancer, and they had a threesome together. He made sure that the two women only touched him and not eachother. Soon later though he returned home from work and found Charlene and the dancer in bed together. Enraged he threw the girl out an open window, then hit Charlene. He then withheld sex from her saying he had become impotent, in reality though he most likely found her unattractive, because she'd shown she wasn't fully dependent on him for sexual kicks. Gerald soon sodomised his now fourteen year old daughter and her friend, he did so with Charlene's knowledge. It is unclear if she was in the room with them or just in the same apartment, but evidently she didn't find anything immoral in Gerald peadophiliac act. This suggests she had the lack of conscience found in a sociopath.

With Gerald working as a bartender, Charlene suspected he was sleeping with his customers as he was now disinterested in her sexually. When the couple had been together for a year, he said that he needed a pair of love slaves to turn him on and asked Charlene to procure them. Some sources suggest she agreed because she seen the mans word as law, that she only wanted to please him. But no one is completely self-effacing so it's more likely she wanted to satisfy her own strong lesbian desires and totally control a helplessly tied up girl. Whatever her motivation, she agreed to lure teenage victims to their certain deaths.
