Balloon Boy’s Parents Get Sentenced For Being Lying A*s Media Attention Whores

Those shady Heenes just got an early Christmas gift:

A judge in Colorado sentenced the father who in October falsely reported his 6-year-old son was aloft in an escaped balloon to 90 days on Wednesday.The judge indicated that Richard Heene will spend part of the time in jail and the rest on work release. He is to begin his sentence after the holidays. Heene tearfully apologized during the hearing.

“I’m very, very sorry, and I want to apologize to all the rescue workers out there and the people who got involved in the community. That’s it,” Richard Heene said.

His wife, Mayumi Heene, received a sentence of 20 days in jail, which is less than the 60 days agreed to by prosecutors as part of a plea deal before the hearing. Mayumi Heene won’t begin her sentence until her husband finishes his jail time so there can be someone home with their children, Larimer County Judge Stephen Schapanski said. She also was given four years of supervised probation and must do 120 hours of public service. Earlier, a prosecutor revealed the search-and-rescue launched in response to the incident cost at least $47,000 and said Richard Heene and his wife, Mayumi, should pay restitution to the various agencies that participated.

SMH. That’s what they get…shady f*cks.

    They was dumb for that one?! What was the point? They should get something more harsh!

  • B3 Fearless

    That’s it? Well at least the mother will do a bit of time and will have 4 years probation, but that whole thing was rediculous. And yes they should have to pay the money back to the various agencies that wasted their time and money on that mess!

    Damm that’s all they got!!!! What a joke!!!

  • Really Tho

    Only the stupid father should be sentenced and jailed not the mom so much. Of all of the footage I’ve seen I’ve never seen her talk. She’s probably not allowed to talk. I believe that this all was his idea and he should be the only one punished. But on a bright note maybe she’ll meet some butch chick in jail, take her kids and leave that loser.

  • white wins

    Im sure the judge was white & cut them a deal! Obviously!!

  • Sunia

    I read the update to this case on cnn.com, and what really tickled me about the prosecutor and judge’s decision was how angry they were with these parents. The mother is from Japan, and although she is a legal US citizen, she was still threatened with being sent back to Japan for her misconduct!! These boys was not playing!!
