He's a ticking time bomb. He should be taking medication and anger management classes. Seriously, just seeing his behavior on wife swap, anyone can tell he has mental illness.

The Octo-Kids look like they are coming out on TOP in every which way. They'll all probably turn out better than everyone else's kid in Hollywood. haha Perhaps we shouldn't be too quick to judge people.

Sounds like a BAD CAT to me! This may be the worst nightmare of their lives if people keep looking into and bringing up their past histories. Poor kids.

I just read this: In 1991, in San Bernardino, CA., Heene was arrested for corporal injury on a spouse. It appears he was not convicted.

When people like this get away with things, it only makes them stronger. They keep pushing the limits because they can...and have..and gotten away with it. She women need to press charges on men that beat them...period!

Those poor kids need to be taken away asap. The police were there back in FEB and said that the wife had a " BAD EYE" she blamed it on her contact. YEA RIGHT. This dude hit her. He is violent and a horrible father.

he is so violent. I wonder how much he has beaten his kids. There is no way those kids will escape that home unharmed.
