I remember watching Shep Smith report this story and thought how bizarre. Odd family, especially the father. They are probably still capitalizing on the children.

Did the parents go to jail over this hoax?

The family must have fallen on hard times as it appears they cannot afford shirts.

Lipstick, it's been 5 years.

Lulu, yes, the parents went to jail. I think the dad spent 30 days in jail and they had to pay restitution.
