Falcon and friends are in BIG trouble!

The Heene Family is now under investigation by the Federal Aviation Administration. Spokesman for the FAA Mike Fergus explains:

"This is unusual. But we investigate any air incident. The investigation is solely focusing on if we had any violations of our regulatory authority or regulations. This is a particularly peculiar [case] so I wouldn't even venture a guess what our legal department would do if it is found there was a violation."

The local authorities are already investigating Richard and Mayumi Heene for criminal behavior including influencing a public official and the delinquency of a minor.

Well you guys wanted attention and you got it!

Be careful what you wish for!

      I really feel sorry for that kid. Watching him throw up on the Today show a few days ago was really sad. The parents just sitting there with a container for him to throw up into. He must really feel that he has gotten his Dad into trouble by saying the wrong thing and its getting to him. I was horrified at that whole scene and can't believe these two would call themselves parents.

      Although I doubt that the parents are currently acting as good role models, my fear is that Falcon is going to hate himself forever if those 3 kids get taken away. They should stay with mom and dad needs some type of punishment and some serious counseling.
