"k" has been called away once more, leaving me to attempt to fill her shoes on the whole Hulk Hogan/Terry Bollea/Nick Hogan/John Graziano car crash he said/he said debacle, so bear with me as we attempt to update you.

When we last discussed this story, k eloquently and painstakingly laid out all the facts before you. Nick Hogan/Bollea drank alcohol which was likely purchased and provided by his father Terry/Hulk. Nick then got behind the wheel of his yellow Toyota Supra also purchased by his father. Nick put on his seat belt, but apparently didn't insist on his passenger wearing one. Nick then raced down a residential street at rates stated to be close to 100mph. Nick then lost control of his vehicle and hit a palm tree.

Nick walked away from the accident with scratches, John on the other hand, is in what appears to be a permanent coma-like state, with a large portion of his front skull missing and his frontal lobe caved in. It is likely he will never regain consciousness and certainly NEVER walk again. For all intents and purposes, John is a vegetable. Even more ironic is John escaped TWO tours of duty in Iraq only to come home and become a victim of drunken, reckless driving at the hands of his supposed "best friend."

After much media manipulation and efforts to sway the public opinion in their favor, Nick was ultimately sentenced to 8 months in county jail. Then audio tapes of Nick and his father scheming to make money off of Nick's "misfortune" were released, including statements where Hulk suggested John was asking for it karmically, and that God was dishing out his punishment for John being a "negative" person (which apparently refers to the fact that John "yelled" a lot before he was so severely injured.)

Hulk Hogan then went on the defensive by doing the Larry King Show and tried to make excuses for his completely inappropriate behavior and once again tried to paint Nick as the victim because his privacy was invaded when the tapes were released to the public. In the meantime, Nick appealed to the courts to allow him to serve some of his time at home because he's under 18 and was being mistreated by being confined to solitary confinement. His appeal was declined, but he was moved to a cell with other juveniles. Hmmmm....I am curious how that's working.
