Steven Stayner was just 7 years old when he was abducted on December 4th, 1972. He spent the next 7 years living with a vile paedophile named Kenneth Parnell. Parnell, kept Steven for these years, moving around California, enrolling Steven into various schools under the name of Dennis Parnell.
Parnell struggled to hold down a stable job, kept on the move and abusing Steven. He made several attempts with Steven to abduct other children, only to have them fail every time. Recruiting another person to abduct a child, Parnell abducted 5 year-old, Timothy White, in 1980.
Steven, being determined to spare Timothy the same fate he had endured, escaped with him in the middle of the night. They went to a police station and explained their stories.
Kenneth Parnell was arrested the next morning.
Steven, once returned to his grateful parents and family, had a hard time readjusting to his new life.
