Richard And Mayumi Heene Get Sentenced

Richard Heene, the father of "Balloon Boy" Falcon Heene, pleaded guilty Friday to a felony charge of attempting to influence a public servant stemming from the families' Oct. 15 hoax, according to CNN. His wife, Mayumi Heene, is charged with one misdemeanor count of false reporting to authorities.
