Charges Likely Against Father Of 'Balloon Boy'
CBS 4 ^ | 10/17/2009 | CBS 4

Posted on 10/17/2009 6:30:38 PM PDT by ErnstStavroBlofeld

The Larimer County Sheriff says criminal charges are likely expected to be filed against Richard Heene.

Heene is the Fort Collins man who reported his 6-year-old son missing in a helium-filled balloon on Thursday.

The sheriff did not give specific charges, but said they would likely be a class 3 misdemeanor, which could be false reporting.

The sheriff's office is working on getting a search warrant to search the Heene home and is planning a news conference Sunday at 11 a.m.

Richard Heene and his wife Mayumi were interviewed by investigators Saturday.

I learned all I needed to know about the familia Henne, Thursday night, when a reporter asked (after their son had been found safe) “how long will the Falcon (PaMom rolls eyes at uber unique name) will be grounded?”. Without hesitation BOTH parental units emphatically stated “we don’t do THAT to our boys.”.

Kinda explains why hundreds of LEOs, first responders and military HAD to be mobilized.

If we’re not careful, this website will become like the Evening News. Distract us with the meaningless stories while the Obama Marxists quietly gain control of everything, including everyone’s ability to resist their efforts to stay in office without an election in 2012.

Or, if we're really not careful, people will think we're a bunch of loons, obsessively worried and unable to enjoy life, due to apocalyptic theories running wild our one-dimensional brains.

Wow, I’d missed that little detail. Was that the first or second of the boy’s vomiting-during-interview episodes? I was appalled that the parents didn’t take him home after the first one. Either the kid had a stomach bug or he was under severe psychological stress with trying to keep straight what lies daddy wanted him to tell — either way, when a 6 year old kid vomits during a TV interview, the kid needs to be DONE with media interviews for at least a few days. But it seemed like these parents (to use the term loosely) didn’t want to miss out on any chance for media attention, and just didn’t give a crap about their poor little vomiting 6 year old.

I hope CPS rakes this pair over the coals. Sounds like it LONG overdue.

A shoo-in for President some day, if he really is descended from aliens.

There is no treatment for psychopaths.

The mom fits the description as well. She was actively trying to lead the child into saying he had heard them calling him by nodding her head at him in the affirmative. The reason being that he was never in the attic and completely out of earshot. They needed everyone to believe he’d been in that attic.
