The two parents behind the Balloon Boy prank have to pay the price for all of their fakeness: $42,000USD.
The Larimer County District Attorney’s office claims it sent the bill to Richard and Mayumi Heene, demanding the couple to pay a restitution to the agencies which took part in the rescue attempt when they thought 6-year-old Falcon Heene had gone airborne in a hot air balloon, and the situation went viral in the media.
The $42k will go towards the police, the national guard and the Federal Aviation Administration, who all played a role on October 15th 2009.
