"I know my first name is Steven." These words were uttered by Steven Stayner, who was kidnapped in 1972 at the age of six by a pedophile. Eight years later, and still in the clutches of his captor, once 5-year-old Timmy White was kidnapped, Steven knew he couldn't let what happened over the prior eight years happen to Timmy. The boys escaped their captor and made their way to a police station, where Steven, who had been brainwashed and groomed by his captor, uttered those words to law enforcement.
