Richard Heene built a helium balloon, shaped like a flying saucer. Richard Heene contacted 911 informing the operator that his son Falcon was missing since the balloon had been launched, about 20 minutes prior to the call, and he said his son was inside. His wife, Mayumi Heene told the operator that the child could not be found, and told the operator another son said he saw Falcon climb inside the balloon before it accidentally released from its tether.
The craft landed softly after being in the air for three hours, but their son was not on board. The Heene’s are suspected of falsely reporting that their son had drifted away in the helium balloon in order to drum up publicity for a proposed reality TV show about their family. Police believe it was a hoax, and are investigating. If determined to be a hoax, criminal charges may be filed.
What Does Reverse Speech Analysis Reveal?
At the time of the 911 call Mayumi Heene’s speech reversals appear to indicate genuine concern for her son’s wellbeing. And she is not indicating she is aware of any potential hoax. By comparison Richard Heene’s reversals in the 911 call, and another interview, show no concern for the son.
