Did GG Allin who is a famous punk singer ever molest kids? Alot of his songs talk about molesting kids. “Expose Yourself to Kids” [GG Allin - Expose Yourself to Kids - YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yw7lUMC-m3Q) is a good example but there are others.

Check out his bio on Wiki: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GG\_Allin](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GG_Allin).

Born Jesus Christ Allin. Apparently, he did get a teenage girl pregnant. Known as “the most spectacular degenerate in the history of rock & roll”. He was definitely out to shock his audience.

Are you talking about his first wife (who was 12 and he was 18 I think) or another girl?

Again, from the Wiki article:  
“In the mid-1980s, Allin became involved with a teenage girl from Garland, Texas named Tracy Deneault. She became pregnant, and their daughter, Nico Ann Deneault, was born March 13, 1986. Nico chose to distance herself from her family. Allin and Tracey Deneault never married.”

He did. He promised to commit suicide on stage on Halloween but was conviently in jail when the day rolled around in 1989. He promised to do it on Halloween the next year, and the year after that, and the year after that but was again conviently in jail on Halloween each year. Odd that.

I dont think he was in jail for banging a underage girl that time or he would have been in for a lot longer than that.

Why not just read the wiki article?

> [@](#):
>
> In late 1987, Allin was arrested and charged with “assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder” of a female acquaintance in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
> 
> Allin initially denied the charges, claiming that the woman was a willing participant in their sexual activities. Allin admitted to cutting her, burning her, and drinking her blood, but insisted she did the same thing to him. Allin also claimed that inconsistencies in the woman’s statements to authorities supported his assertions. The judge in the case agreed there were substantial inconsistencies in the woman’s account. Ultimately, however, Allin plea bargained to the reduced charge of felonious assault, and he was imprisoned from December 25, 1989 to March 26, 1991.

No idea. But considering his main goal was to shock the audience, few things are more shocking than child molestation. So naturally he was going to sing about that stuff. It doesn’t mean he does (or doesn’t do) it.

He married a 12 yr old girl when he was 18 or 19 so I think he was actually into it.

According to Wikipedia, he married Sandra Farrow in 1980. No information about how old she was, but I don’t think any state allows 12-year-olds to get married. G.G. Allin was born in 1956, making him 24 or so at the time of the marriage.

I saw a documentary on him and they said he married a 12 yr old when he was 18 or 19 I think they even interviewed the girls mother.
