High in the Sky
Richard Heene and his wife are straight up liars. The little stunt they pulled on national TV. last week was absolutely a hoax. At first, everyone thought this was going to end in some terrible tragedy. After the Heene’s called 911, all kinds of people responded to the call. They even went as far as getting the National Guard to assist. After hours of distress and eyes glued to the television, the balloon landed only to reveal the boy wasn’t there in the first place. As far as I could tell, there wasn’t really any place for the boy to be in the box in the first place. But the big surprise was that the boy named Falcon was actually hiding in the attic because he didn’t want to get in trouble. That all seemed fine at first glance, but after listening to the 911 phone call and watching the home video (for whatever reason they had that out in a crisis, we will never know, but only adds fuel to hoax’s fire), it is apparent that Richard Heene tends to be acting out, rather than apprehensive. It all seemed a little staged at first, but, what really took the cake for me was when the family was on Larry King Live, and little Falcon gave it all away. After all the tapes and interviews being done, I strongly accuse Richard Heene of faking this stunt, and feel he should not reap any benefits from this. He loves the publicity I’m sure, but I don’t feel he went about getting publicity in the right manor. Whether he was in this for the money, or to get his own reality TV show, he failed at both, and that’s what he deserves. I don’t feel he or his family should have to pay back bills to the point where he goes bankrupt, that’s just cruel. He wasted valuable resources, but hopefully he learned his lesson, and I hope he is ashamed to show his eyes in public again. Now it’s time to just move on from this, and divert attention elsewhere, because he is definitely feasting off every minute of this publicity. You are a sick man Richard Heene.

I agree. The more attention we put in to it the bigger it gets...you know the saying, "bad publicty is better than no publicity!". It's sad the it went this far. There people who had a genuine concern, It's episodes like this that turn us in to stone; It will have one think that everyone has a angle. We should move on and not give it anymore time in the spotlight.
ReplyDeleteI remember that day, I was watching tv flipping through the channels, and stopped on CNN and saw that, and watched it, I worried for that little boy and his safety. I watched it for hours to make sure falcon was okay. I also, remember the episode of wife swap, that the family was on, that family was crazy! they day was always putting those kids in danger, and lets those boys do whatver! The point is The dad is wrong, he wasted all those peoples time, all those people were worried for his child's safety, and praying for their family. He taught his family a bad lesson that day. Their should be major consequences that Richard H should have to deal with. Money, law,..... What a bad example of a father.
