Is The Hogan Divorce A Distraction???

Filed under: Hulk Hogan

mx0045026__opt1.jpg

Lawyer's for the family of the victim in the Nick Hogan car crash think that the Hulkster's divorce from wife of nearly 25 years, Linda, is merely a ruse.

Kimberley Kohn, a Tampa attorney who represents Ed Graziano, the father of injured passenger John Graziano, is doubting the Hogan divorce.

She claims that Hulk and Linda are splitting in a move to protect their assets.

The Graziano family is planning to sue the Hogans and if they are divorced, they would have to go after each one individually, making it much more difficult.

John Graziano has been hospitalized since the August accident and is pretty much brain dead. His family wants the Hogans to pay for his medical care for life. And they should!

    I am sure Hulk Hogan has CAR INSURANCE plus an UBMRELLA POLICY. People with money always have an umbrella policy to insure them up to their net worth.


    This one is truly STUPID.

    Maybe if John Graziano was wearing a seatbelt he wouldn't be brain dead. Oh, and he is 22 years old with a 17 year old? I wonder who got Nick the alcohol…They should be charging John as well.

    If it is a scam how horrible of the Hogans to do that. They should stand up and offer to pay the bills without the threat of suing. It was their dumbass son that caused the wreck, and I am sure they bought him the supped up car.

    I now think the Hogan Family sucks.
    Nick should be put behind bars for life..
    He pretty much killed his friend… for a stupid "mistake".

    I think they should be sued.. lol. For lots of money and lol, pay for his medical stuff….

    Yes, seems like that is what is going on… I did find it odd that the divorce is going on in the middle of all this Nick stuff. Nick needs to pay… what a horrible thing to live with. I hope this family goes down… sad to say but they were asking for it.

  36. They Should not have to PAY! says – reply to this
    36

    That is bullshit,, they should not have to pay,,
    if their son is going to be judged as an adult than he should pay as an adult,, if the son Nick has money take his money,, but if he is old enough to be tried and judged as an adult then his parents should NOT have to pay,, that is a double standard,, that is total bullshit,,
    plus the guy that got into his car was an adult ,, it's his own fault for not getting out of the car ,, he wanted to go fast,, just like NICK did,, so wow,, he is a veggie now,, dumbass should of wore his seatbelt or not got in,,

    I had a feeling that there was more to the story. I have to admit, I have watched their show a few times and heard them speak about breaking up before… but they were in the process of trying to repair their relationship. This seems like a sheisty move to keep the Graziano family from getting what they deserve for their son. Nick's license should be suspended indefinitely… him and Britney.

  39. bbeyes says – reply to this
    39

    i dont think they should have to pay. Make nick pay; he's the one who was racing. I think he is being a spoiled brat and not taking responsibility for his actions. mommy and daddy can't protect and support him his whole life.

  41. omegadawg says – reply to this

    Why should they pay Graziano's medical care for life? Is there evidence that he was coerced into the vehicle? If not, I think it more likely that he was an accomplice than an innocent victim.

    I don't believe that people should have to pay just because the are rich.

  43. cayt says – reply to this
    43

    they absolutely should NOT. i have a serious issue with accidents like this. I feel so horrible for the family of that poor boy, but the fact is he got into the car ("Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are" - I am sure he was not oblivious to Nick's driving or his behavior throughout the night); then Nick got into an ACCIDENT.

    Their poor child is brain dead. How long are they planning to keep his injured body around to look at in a hospital bed? That's just unfair to everybody involved.

    they should definitely pay for medical expenses for the rest of the boys brain dead life. linda needs to start dressing her age.

    If Nick is 18 or over, how can they sue his parents. They aren't responsible financially is he is of age.

    nick should be jailed for life, for a)speeding b) being drunk c) making his friend braidead and then BLAIMING HIM for that, wow what a a friend, with friends like that who needs enemies. the whole family is disgusting and are a bunch of liers through and through

    i dont think the hogans should pay for his expenses. It was not there fault that there son got in the car with their son. i think if anything nick should be accountable but not the parents. people think that if they fuck they can go after the people who have money, shit tell the father to get a job to help his son.

    Nick is 17, he will be 18 july of next yr

  52. hh says – reply to this
    52

    as much as what their son did was horrendous, vile and sick
    he caused the accident and as long as he above 18yrs old and legally an adult (in the UK anyway) he should be held responsible for his actions
    i have never posted here bet to bame his parents is stupid
    they aren't perfect (infact rather vile) but how many families are?

  53. .. says – reply to this

    Re: chico34 – yes the dad of the victim should pay for his care forever because someone else made his son a cripple, good poing ok….

    if that's true, then that's fucking genius. dirty, but brilliant.

    i think nick should have to pay for his friend's health care and whatnot. it should be part of the punishment.

  55. Julia says – reply to this

    Wouldn't they sue just the son not the whole family??? Im from New zealand not the USA so I dont know much about your crazy legal system but what have his parents got to do with his sons crash??

    The Hogans are big people with big wallets. They should pay out their big asses. And brooke got implants…she tried to say she just grew…no you didnt big one…you and your mom are flat by nature….bulbous by dr. 90210.

  59. nick hogan is a brat says – reply to this
    59

    God Nick Hogan is such an inconsiderate little brat. It's amazing how 1 freakin spoiled kid can cause so much trouble for everyone he knows. He made his friend brain dead because he has a lead foot, and he's forcing a divorce in his family (be it the reason above or because its a real divorce). They always say to tell your children it's not their fault you're divorcing, but in this case it IS Nick's fault. He's such a little douche bag. Even on their show he's a spoiled brat who only thinks about himself. Just lock that kid up, he screwed up everying.

    I understand according to reports that the victim in the car accident wasn't wearing his seatbelt. At what point does the victim take responsiblity for not having a regard for his own safety. I'm just guessing, he wasn't exactly telling Nick to slow down or not race. Perhaps he was a willing participant. I know the family of the victim is crushed, but it seems like their anger is misplaced. Nick was driving yes, but the victim should have taken the responsiblity of his own safety and buckled up.

    The Hogans should pay for the initial bills…however…Graziano CHOSE to get in that car and knew that his friend likes to race! They should not have to pay for life nor should the family be all SUE HAPPY!!! It's a HORRIBLE thing that happened…it was a HORRIBLE ACCIDENT!!!

    I agree they should have to pay for the expenses, at least partially. However, I think it's really amazingly rude to sit there and question a divorce saying it's a legal tactic. Low, low, low.

    Why should the hulk and his wife have to pay? Their son is not 10, its his problem and he should have to be the man he thought he was getting behind the wheel. He was old enough to be behind the wheel, hes old enough to deal with it. I just hope thats not the reason this family is seperating. I love the hulk and no punk ass son should break that up.

    My question is that even if they are divorced & the assets are divided however that would go, both parents are going to named b/c at the time of the suit & the time of the accident they have full equal custody of nick. Even w/ a divorce they will both have to pay whatever the judge decides.

    Well, their children work so hard–what with all the dance routines and practice driving. Nick and Blaire (or whatever) have earned the status that their father's fame afforded them. And the Hogan family have a right to take themselves seriously. They are contributing members of society, not bad examples of wealthy Americans fooling themselves about their redeeming qualities. Attention must be paid.

    This kid is the epitome of "dumb kid." Daddy's rich, watch me ruin multiple lives in public. I'm on a racing team, oh, they dumped me while I was saying that. I've done nothing in life but make a vegetable, wanna race? This kid is putting out press releases while his buddy eats through an IV. He should be in his own self-imposed jail, but since he can't stop playing Hulk Jr. he should go to a real one. More roids please!
