Gene Simmons’ Beverly Hills Home Searched by Police; Kiss Bassist Not Suspect

Gene Simmons’ Beverly Hills home has been searched by Los Angeles police on August 20.

A task force investigating Internet crimes against children served a search warrant at the home of the Kiss bassist in Benedict Canyon, but neither Gene Simmons nor anyone in his family is suspected in the case, LAPD said.

Lt. John Jenal says the detectives involved want to emphasize that Gene Simmons and his family were “extremely cooperative” and none of them are suspected of a crime.

Police would give no further comment on the investigation.

Gene Simmons, 65, has been a central member of Kiss since the early 1970s. His family was the subject of a reality TV series that aired for several years.
