…to kill the little brat! The boys father, Richard Heene, was apparently in one of these mindless reality shows recently (this one with the salaciously-titled “Wife Swap”), and from what I am reading, his family made light of families who try to oversee their children closely and not let them run amok.  I wonder if he still thinks watching your children closely is worthy of poking fun at.

Something stinks here thats for sure. I am from Colorado and I want these parents (I use the term lightly) to reimburse the state for this fiasco. Plus they surely will be charged. Its embarrasing for people in my state let me tell you. The kooks are taking over.
