Balloon Boy's Folks to Plead Guilty to Charges

A follow up to the balloon boy case, in today's New York Times,

"Lawyer David Lane said in a statement Thursday that Mayumi Heene will plead guilty to false reporting to authorities, a misdemeanor. He said her husband, Richard Heene, will plead guilty to attempting to influence a public servant, a felony."

Not a shock because the Heene's have gotten their allotment of fame, as they desired, and, as further reported, they'll be getting probation. Geez, do you think their sentence will prohibit them from profiting in any way from their escapade?

Well, that's what I have to say.
