Zero at the Bone by Bryce Marshall & Paul Williams | Story of Gene Simmons Mass Murderer

For the first time, here is the true story of the Gene Simmons slaughter, from the former Air Force Master Sergeant's mania for order to his incestuous relationship with his daughter who bore him a child - another victim. Here are the shocking killings: each family member's death carefully planned, gruesomely carried out with pauses in between to drink beer and watch "Wheel of Fortune." Here are the fears and obsessions that haunted the man, terrified his wife, and exploded around the family Christmas tree. Five days after the first killing, the frightening truth began to leak out...

Gene Simmons was determined to control everything around him - including his wife and children - even as they slipped further and further from his grasp. From a strange fixation on details nd discipline, he began his slow slide into isolation and finally into murderous madness. After years of paranoia and depravity, Gene Simmons came to the conclusion that his family must die - and the cold-blooded rampage began. Gene Simmons planned to commit suicide after the massacre but was afraid of a botched attempt. He spent years on death row, eager for his own execution, furious that third party appeals kept him alive - until on June 25, 1990 he finally got his wish.
