Ex-boyfriend Steven King's bail set at $250,000
The ex-boyfriend of baby Elaina's mother went before a judge for the first time, after being arrested for obstruction of justice.
Steven King's bail was set at $250,000. He is not eligible for 10 percent bond.
In court Tuesday, King's attorney, Pete Rost, pushed for a lower bail, saying his client continually cooperated with police. Rost says King was only arrested after finally telling the FBI Monday that he wouldn't be speaking with them anymore.
Court documents say King purposely made false statements to detectives. The documents go on to say the statements were found to be false, after detectives reviewed paperwork and video collected during the investigation.

Well, this is the first time I have read this accounting of Angela Steinfurth's reaction to her daughter's disappearance. From the very first we have read that Angela just came out of the home and announced that Elaina was missing and then sat on the front porch and smoked a cigarette and was emotionless.

No where have I seen that she ran into the street frantic. Wow.
