Good. This idiot is not only a media whore, he's sucked his kids into it and cost tax payers thousands of dollars for his publicity stunt. Not to mention tying up emergency personnel for no reason. I just hope he doesn't take it out on his kids.

(CNN) -- Authorities in Colorado say criminal charges are expected to be filed against Richard Heene, a storm-chasing father whose giant Mylar balloon ascended into the sky earlier this week, sparking fears that his 6-year-old was aboard.


"We do anticipate at some point in the future, there will be some criminal charges filed with regards to this incident," Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden said.

The saga captured the nation's attention early Thursday afternoon, after authorities reported the family's homemade helium balloon was set adrift, apparently with young Falcon Heene inside.

Since then, speculation has mounted over whether the incident was a hoax by the father, who has appeared with his family on ABC's "Wife Swap," and posted videos of storm chasing and other activities online

These people are pathetic. They're nothing different than a band of gypsies sending their kids out on the street to do their dirty work. Ugh!
 
I feel really bad for these kids:(

What crap? The story about a family who created a hoax to help with getting a reality TV show? Sure. I do. If you don't, I suggest you post in threads that have some value to you. :roll:
