1.1. In the Shadow of Yosemite - Part 1: Steven Stayner

On a cold March night in 1980, two boys, aged 14 and 5 stood outside a Ukiah police station, deciding what to do next. Local police were in the middle of a frenzied investigation into the recent abduction of 5-year-old Timmy White. They could scarcely imagine that not one, but two missing boys could stumble into their midst and, in the process, solve their own abductions. This is the story of Steven Stayner.*** Correction: Episode audio incorrectly states that Kenneth Parnell attempted to buy a child for USD$50.00 in 2003, when the actual figure was USD$500.00.Propensity is a true crime anthology podcast.
