Richard Heene: The Media is the Hoax
Balloon Boy dad Richard Heene, has taken to his website to send a message to the public; it's the media, not his runaway balloon, that is duping you.
The eccentric father of three, who posted the message on his Psyience Detectives website, maintains his innocence as authorities accuse Heene of pretending his son was in a runaway balloon as a publicity stunt.
The Larimer County Sheriff's Department announced yesterday that it believes the story of Balloon Boy to have been a premeditated hoax to gain notoriety for the Heene family.
What do you think? Should the Heenes lose their children?
