He sits today in a single cell in the Mendocino County Jail in Ukiah, accused of kidnapping two small boys. What happened in the 48 years in between? What, if the charges are true, drove this man to stalk the streets of Bakersfield and Merced and Ukiah and Santa Rosa on his dark missions? And how was he able er of happier times the day in 1942 when you visited your Grandpa Pollard's farm in Texas and sat so tall in the saddle. And 38 years later, when the reporters invade your one-room cabin far away on the Northern California coast, searching for clues that would tell them just what kind of man would attempt to build a family of kidnapped boys, maybe to keep one of those boys as his surrogate son for seven years without being detected? Just what did go wrong with the boy on the pony? Like the old photo from his grandfather's farm, some of the edges of Kenneth Parnell's life remain out of focus.

1 Hakeem's sentence: 15 years By Dexter Waugh A stunned Hakeem Abdul Rasheed, the Oakland clergyman who sold thousands of people his gospel of wealth, today was sentenced to 15 years In federal penitentiary. In pronouncing the stiff sentence, US. District Judge Stanley Weigel said that such a tong term "may not return the lost money, but it may deter others." Weigel also fined Rasheed $1,000 on each of the six counts of fraud and increased his bail from $10,000 to cash. He remanded Rasheed to the federal marshal's custody and to jail, unless he can make bail. Rasheed's lawyer, Marcus Topel, said he will immediately file notice of appeal and also move to reduce bail.

He said his ground for appeal will be that the First Amendment protected his client. "Hakeem inspired people to feel good about themselves and about money," Topel said, "and there was no evidence throughout the case that he did not believe this himself. "What he taught was unorthodox, very different and certainly unpalatable to government Institutions, but I think that a very good argument has been made that what he did is protected by the First Amendment." The 31-year-old clergyman and the vice president of his Church of Hakeem, Janice Phillips, 26, were accused of mail fraud in the church's get-rich program. Phillips is to be sentenced tomorrow. US.

Attorney Ed Luckel said he believes Weigel's long sentence is entirely appropriate: "In the government's view this was a massive fraud involving millions of dollars Rasheed showed arrogance and cold disdain to the court" Referring to the millions of dollars in cash and property Rasheed and his church accumulated, Luckel said he had "an apparent inability to care even for his own children." He said Rasheed Is $7,500 in arrears in child support. The prosecutor said he thinks the public sees the perpetrators of white-collar crimes receiving short sentences and added that Rasheed's long sentence "will tell everyone in the community that the perpetrators of economic crimes are being treated fairly by the See Back Page, Col. 1 KENNETH PARNELL'S path from Innocent child to accused childstealer was king and tortured.

Leonard said he was contacted directly by administration representatives he declined to name, and said he discussed the matter with Don Hewitt, the program's executive producer, and Mike Wallace, the correspondent for the report The network considered abandoning the segment altogether, Leonard said, "but it's obvious where we came down." "We had decided to broadcast the piece before there were any of these representations," Leonard said, "and we went ahead with it as planned." Neither Hewitt nor Wallace could be reached immediately for comment The segment, nearly tw ice as long as the average "60 Minutes" piece, Included an interview with the now-deposed shah taped by Wallace some time ago.
