The world followed the balloon that was thought to have a 6year old boy inside. This story got lots of media attention with the the Heene’s fearing their son was flying away. Well, the boy was not in the balloon but in his parent’s attic asleep. Was anyone else laughing hysterically when they heard that? It gets even juicier when the mother admits the incident was a hoax meant to make the family more marketable to the media.
Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden has said he will recommend charges against the Heenes including conspiracy, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, making a false report to authorities, and attempting to influence a public servant. The most serious charges are felonies and carry a maximum sentence of six years in prison.
Well, the family is definitely getting a lot of media attention..
