“Short Sentence Ends Long Story”

Richard and Mayumi Heene, the perpetrators of the “Balloon Boy” hoax, were sentenced to 90 and 20 days in jail, respectively, for influencing public officials when the couple staged the stunt. Richard Heene cried at the sentencing as he apologized, because reality show producers love to see that when they are casting.

Going to jail means being stuck in a dwelling surrounded by strangers, having to live on a strict schedule, take orders, and be under constant surveillance. So it’s just like the reality show they Heene’s always wanted.
