I wouldn't be surprised if social services takes their kids away for this. What a strange, strange set of people. Those interviews were just down right bizarre.


I love watching the one where the kid says "it was for the show"..I laughed so hard, that father learned a hard lesson in the unpredictability of small children.

7I did some research on the Heenes and found some disturbing facts about them. Here's a compilation that gives a good character profile of this family...

Interview with Larry King where the kid admits it's for the show. And he didn't just say, "It was for the show," he said before that, "You guys said..."


Then Larry King verifies what the kid said and asks outright what the kid meant about it...


This is the 911 call that was made. In this clip you'll hear the wife at the beginning state that her husband was calling someone. I bet that was him calling the media.


This is the video of the sheriff stating this was a hoax. The most disturbing part of this video is when he says that one of the previous calls to 911, it was a suspected domestic violence issue.
http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2009/10/18/co.alderden.ballooon.kusa

The Heene family was featured on Wife Swap before this whole extravaganza. Apparently, this guy isn't very nice.
http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/10/15/heene.wife.swap/index.html

This guy not only needs to go to jail, but he needs to lose his wife and have his kids taken away IMO.

I suspect strong negative sentiments and opinions to follow about this family throughout the world, however it won't stop them bringing in $$$. The best thing we can do is to stop caring and not pay any attention.

Remember Tonya Harding?

She said,

"I may have not gotten any gold in Norway, but I'll be getting it where it counts - in my bank account!"

Regardless of whether or not this was a hoax it makes me think of this.

We should remove all safety/stupidity labels so the problem fixes itself.

Mayumi Heene told sheriff's deputies that she and her husband Richard "knew all along that Falcon was hiding in the residence" in Fort Collins, according to an affidavit used to get a search warrant for the home.

She allegedly told investigators the incident was a hoax meant to make them more marketable to the media.

There's so many stupidity and hoax happening in certain parts of america. It must be sad that kid is apparantly in one. It must be sad to have a father that wants to do a publicity stunts for the media.
