her
boyfriend, Stephen Robert Feil. During the conversation, Charlene
drove up in her silver Cutlass. This was the third big break,
although it did not seem like it at the time.
    Charlene, twenty-four, was blonde, pretty,
petite, and seven months pregnant. She coolly denied any knowledge
of the disappearance of Sowers or Miller. She allowed the
detectives to search the Cutlass. They found no indication of foul
play or otherwise incriminating evidence that a crime had been
committed.
    Charlene complained of being sick because of
her pregnancy and suffering from a hangover. She gave few details
about her boyfriend, Stephen Feil.
    The detectives, unaware that Miller's body
was soon to be discovered and having no other reason to detain the
ill Charlene further, promised to return later that day to
photograph her. She, in turn, hoped to have recovered somewhat and
be more cooperative.

    It was not until the following day that
Charles and Mercedes Williams admitted to the detectives that their
daughter was married to Stephen Feil and that this was actually an
alias used by Gerald Gallego, thirty-four, who was wanted on incest
and other sex charges.
    Suddenly some frightening pieces of a bizarre
puzzle began to fall into place. Not only had the Gallegos become
the chief suspects in the murder of Craig Miller and disappearance
of Mary Beth Sowers, but neighboring Yolo County authorities were
also investigating the connection of a Stephen Feil to the
kidnapping-murder of Virginia Mochel, a local bartender.
    Unfortunately, by now the Gallegos, sensing
trouble, had fled to parts unknown. On November 5, 1980, El Dorado
County filed charges of kidnapping and murder against Gerald and
Charlene Gallego. The following day, a federal fugitive warrant of
unlawful flight to avoid prosecution was issued against the
Gallegos to allow the FBI to join in a nationwide search for the
fugitive couple on the run.
    That search came to an uncomplicated end
twelve days later. On Monday, November 17, 1980, Gerald and
Charlene Gallego were captured by FBI agents in Omaha, Nebraska
while they were attempting to pick up money that had been wired to
them by Charlene's parents at a Western Union office in downtown
Omaha.
    The arrest came without incident and brought
to an end what was later discovered to be a twenty-six month reign
of sex-motivated brutality and cold-blooded murder.
    Yet this was only the beginning of a bizarre
tale of sexual fantasies, domination, and sheer terror that was to
unravel and take three and a half more years to bring to a
conclusion.

    THE SEX SLAVE MURDERS 3
    The Horrific Tale of Serial Killers Leonard
Lake & Charles Ng
    By R. Barri Flowers
     
    Leonard Lake and Charles Ng left their dark
mark on society as two of America's worst and most sadistic serial
killers. Between 1984 and 1985, the unlikely homicidal pair
perpetrated most of their crimes at a secluded cabin and adjacent
custom-made dungeon of horrors in an unincorporated area in
Calaveras County, California, where they brought their abducted
victims, sexually assaulted, tortured, and murdered them, often
videotaping their heinous crimes. 1 On one videotape
confiscated by police, killer Ng is shown eerily warning one female
victim, "You can cry and stuff, like the rest of them, but it won't
do any good. We are pretty cold-hearted, so to speak." 2 In all, the two slayers are thought to have killed between twelve
and twenty-five people.
    The killers would undoubtedly have claimed
the lives of more victims, had they not been stopped in their
tracks by Ng's penchant for shoplifting and Lake's misguided
attempt to cover for him. In the process, authorities would
discover the true horrors brought about by the two men, one of whom
would commit suicide to avoid owning up to his
