Bill's job (along with his accountant's) faces threat of termination by Governor Hughes because his prison's poor results will look badly at the election. Nevertheless, these inhuman methods do not improve standards and only add to the medical costs.īill Boss grows increasingly demented as he struggles to keep his prisoners in line.īill works closely with his accountant Dwight Butler and assistant Daisy who he abuses both verbally and sexually, even in the presence of Dwight. The poor statistics produced by his prison and a lack of respect from the prisoners in it encourages Bill to come up with crueler punishments, including water-boarding a prisoner with boiling water and castrating a particularly rebellious prisoner designated Inmate 297 using nothing but a knife and blowtorch before having the testicles for lunch. Due to a mix of mental instability and the extreme pressures brought onto him by his job, Bill brutalizes his prisoners who misbehave and often resorts to cruel punishments such as breaking Inmate 178's arm for stabbing a prison guard. These experiences likely molded his psychological profile extensively, particularly his extreme paranoia and narcissistic wish for total respect, which he ties in with the image of his masculinity, which he builds up with big guns, hex fertility nostrums, overly dramaturgical speech that is peppered with profanities, the emasculation of other men, and an overcharged sex drive.īill Boss is the sadistic, chauvinistic and ruthless warden of George H.W. His interactions with the prisoners also suggest that he was subject to sexual abuse by multiple grown men in his childhood, which caused him to develop an intense fear of being raped. He identifies as Christian, specifically Roman Catholic, but has a very twisted interpretation of it, reciting a table prayer before he eats a pair of human testicles and referencing Exodus 21 : 23-25 in his quote about revenge torture, "Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth, times one hundred". His status as a "mere German-American", rather than a born-and-raised American appears to bother him greatly and is seemingly the root cause for his jingoistic patriotism. Bill eventually moved to the southern United States and became a naturalized citizen. According to Bill, said grandfather took it to himself to castrate each male pig personally, supposedly neutering thousands of them in his lifetime. Bill's ancestral home is in Schweinfurt, Bavaria, where he states his grandfather operated a pig farm.
