switch today. >>> in 1979, ken parnell pulled up stakes again, and he moved with steven to a small cabinia, which is in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by almost nothing. this is, for ken and for steven, a turning point. >> it was a one-room shack. very old and cold. >> at some point, parnell and steven together realized that steven was growing up and that he was no longer gonna be able to be controlled by parnell. parnell wanted another kid. >> so, in february of 1980, ken parnell goes back to the exact same m.o. that he used to get steven stayner. he paid a local kid to ride with him to the little town of ukiah, california, puts this high school kid out on the street to go find him a boy, and he finds 5-year-old timothy white walking home from school. >> steven watched timmy suffer through this separation from his family for two weeks and decided finally that he had to do something about it. >> he literally said, "i was not gonna let that child go through what i had already been through. and if i didn't take care of it now, it would just get worse." >> eventually, steven got the %-p.
