I think it's important to remember the other victims of these crimes, too, how impacted the ones on the periphery can be. Remember the story of Steve Stayner, the boy who was kidnapped by Kenneth Parnell, a man who sexually abuses Steven for the next seven years? So, how vote you? For the death penalty or against, with regards to Steven's brother Cary's murders of four women?<br> <br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.movietome.com/movietome/servlet/MovieMain/movieid-8795//">www.movietome.com/movieto...eid-8795//</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>Steven's eventually re-united with his family, but I believe he dies in a motorcycle accident a few years later. THEN, a number years later, his brother is found to have been the murderer of four women in Yosemite. <br><br>It's like ripples on a pond surface. It-is-all-so-much-more-complicated-than-it-looks-on-the -surface. It is not all black and white. But it is tragic.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.rotten.com/library/bio/crime/serial-killers/cary-stayner/">www.rotten.com/library/bi...y-stayner/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>clip<br><br>13 Aug 1961 Cary Stayner born. <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>c. 1971 Cary Stayner is molested as a child.</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>4 Dec 1972 Brother, Steven Stayner, abducted at age 7 in Merced, CA</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> walking home from Charles Wright Elementary School, and held by Kevin Parnell as a sex slave for eight years. <br>1980 Kevin Parnell's boy Steven is getting a bit on the old side, so he kidnaps Timmy White, age 5. <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>1 Mar 1980</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> Brother, Steven Stayner, escapes captivity with the second boy, Timmy White. <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>c. 1985 Kevin Parnell released from prison.</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> <br>22 May 1989 Made-for-TV movie, I Know My First Name is Steven, with Corin Nemec as Steven. <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>16 Sep 1989 Brother, Steven Stayner, killed in a motorcycle accident at age 24</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> (some give the date as the 20th.) <br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>1990 Jesse Stayner, Cary's uncle, murdered in a case that has not been solved.
