Cuffed and Jailed

Finally, on February 9, 2004, Parnell was convicted on the charges of attempting to purchase a child and attempted child molestation. Along with Stevens’ testimony and the child pornography materials found in his belongings, he was sentenced to 25 years to life. He remained incarcerated until he died in 2008. He passed away from natural causes and had been in the hospice for quite some time when this happened.

The Last Survivor

White had been Parnell’s youngest kidnap victim and he tried to move with his life as well. Like his savior, Stayner, he talked to children about the dangers of kidnapping and was an advocate for child safety. He had also forgiven Poorman for being an accomplice to his harrowing experience and said that while the past did haunt him, he had a good life now and a wife who loved him unconditionally.
