[quote]A search warrant was served at the Los Angeles home of Kiss bassist Gene Simmons, but the rocker and his family are not considered suspects, authorities said.
The division that handles online crimes against children executed the warrant Thursday, according to Lt. John Jenal of the Los Angeles Police Department.
"No members of the Simmons family are suspects in the case and were extremely cooperative," he said.
The rocker's wife thanked fans for their support, and said the family is stunned.
"We couldn't be more horrified that someone used our residence for such heinous crimes," Shannon Tweed Simmons tweeted. "Law enforcement is on it."
She did not provide any details on the alleged crime. Nor did authorities, citing an ongoing investigation.
The rocker's publicist said the police visit was connected with a crime that may have occurred on the property last year while Simmons was away touring with his band.
Authorities requested Simmons and his family not to discuss the case to avoid undermining the investigation, publicist Cheyanne Baker said in a statement.
Simmons is best known as a front man and co-founder of the rock band Kiss, but he wears many hats, including record producer and songwriter.
He also starred in a reality television show on A&E, "Gene Simmons Family Jewels," that documented life with his wife and two children.[/quote]
Scared the shit out of me for a second.
This is an example of why I think investigation shouldn't be publicized and that the media shouldn't be able to publish names until the person is [I]convicted[/I] of a crime.
A mere mention of a child sex crime is enough to ruin you life. Simmon's is lucky he's such a well liked public figure. Most other people would receive piles of hate mail if there was any suggestion of a child sex offense investigation.
I love his family, they're all completely retarded and insane. Though not this insane. It's a good thing they're not suspected.
Why are they searching his house if he isn't a suspect?

Literally in the OP

I think Gene Simmons is a bit of a prick, but it's good to know that he's been cooperative. Let's hope they catch whomever's responsible.
Wait, I'm confused. Somebody broke into his house to view/make child porn?

Sounds like it.
That sounds like one strange home invader.

I guess it could make sense to use someone else's house that you know won't be there because they won't be able to track you down by the location in the video if it's never seen, but why break into a house that probably has a load of security??

probably not. it was most likely a friend of one of his kids or something. someone who was visiting and needed their child porn fix urgently.
