quote: ORIGINAL: DrkJourney I agree about the news being bias and like the national enquirer. I was pretty naive about the news, I thought if nothing else, whatever the news did report would be somewhat accurate, if nothing else so they would not be sued, until, a co-worker was killed by her ex husband. The news media on all channels, only talked to "his" brother and made her seem like some kind of whore, and his brother was some poor guy that had been wronged, that did this on the spur of the moment. They didn't go into why she finally divorced him after years of him cheating, abandoning the family when he did, and made me wonder how they could slant it as a crime of passion, he didn't walk in and find a wife in bed with someone, she was his ex, and he followed her and her boyfriend to not one but two cities, lie in wait for them to come out of the hotel, and brought a kitchen knife from home. After he stabbed her he ran over her....looks like he had plenty of time to "think" about things. The media, didn't even try to talk to any one in her life, and I know some that called the station that tried. And taking the brother's word? he is a guy convicted of stalking and spousal abuse himself. hell, they didn't even get her age right....not one of the stations or the paper. I accepted long ago that they do what they have to to sell papers/attract viewers and that's why I don't read newspapers or watch the news on tv.

Yep, but I contrasted with the other two brothers who sat mostly pretty still, remarkably controlled . . . . . I expect a moderate & growing amount of fidgetting from younguns, especially the jostling between siblings stuff escalating with boredom, of which there was virtually none . . . . . That, & the suppressed annoyance I'm pretty sure I saw under the non-emotion mask Dad seemed to have on . . . . . & I am a cynical vigilante type about reading family dynamics, it's true ... . . . Dad was setting off my squirrely meter big time . ... . & Falcon really seemed to have a kinda triumphant attitude, an I'm-getting-away-with-stuff energy . . . . . . quote: ORIGINAL: zephyroftheNorth Really? I just saw it as a 6-year-old child who wanted to get off his father's lap, nothing more. Remember that it's hard for a child that age to sit still for long periods of time

The interview would have been as boring as hell for those kids and they should have been at least a little fidgety. Instead they looked oppressed.

Yeah, kids should be wiggly, especially pre-pubescent boychildren. Should not sit still for more than a minute or two or three, so when I see kids sitting still for 4 or 5 minutes at a time, it's another one of those squirrely meters that goes off in my head . . . . While individual data points can vary widely, oppressive parenting explains a lot in that direction, too . . . . & for me, it's not any one little thing, it's the sum total of all the niggling details that don't add up . . . . . quote: ORIGINAL: sirsholly i noticed this too.

Quote from http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/10/19/earlyshow/main5396470.shtml: "Murphy said parents, Richard Heene and his wife, Mayumi, don't have to be charged with a crime in order for Protective Services to come in and take their children away. "All they have to have is evidence of neglect or abuse," she said. "And boy, I think they've got plenty of that here.""

quote: ORIGINAL: ThatDamnedPanda Yeah, the fact that he's this pissed points very strongly in only one direction - that it was a hoax.... Mom tells police balloon saga was hoax By DAN ELLIOTT, Associated Press Writer Dan Elliott, Associated Press Writer – Fri Oct 23, 6:49 pm ET DENVER – The mother of the 6-year-old boy once feared missing inside a runaway helium balloon admitted the whole saga was a hoax, according to court documents released Friday. Mayumi Heene told sheriff's deputies that she and her husband Richard "knew all along that Falcon was hiding in the residence" in Fort Collins, according to an affidavit used to get a search warrant for the home. She allegedly told investigators the incident was a hoax meant to make them more marketable to the media. "Mayumi described that she and Richard Heene devised this hoax approximately two weeks earlier.... She and Richard had instructed their three children to lie to authorities as well as the media regarding this hoax," the affidavit said.
