 In 1972 a seven-year-old boy named Steven Stayner was abducted while he walked home from school in Merced, CA. His case drug on and went unsolved for so long, most people gave up any hope that Steven would ever be found alive. In 1980 Steven Stayner was found...alive. For over seven years-from age seven to the fourteen-the boy had been held captive by a child predator named Kenneth Parnell. You're probably asking yourself, Merced is over 150 miles from Bakersfield...almost a three-hour drive...why is this a Notorious Bakersfield story. This is the Bakersfield connection to that story.
