The police officers who allowed Nick to drive fast without giving him a ticket should also be in jail. They are the ones responsible for allowing this to happen. Nick bragged after this happened about being pulled over many times in the past for fast driving and was let go without a ticket when they realized who he was. I think both parents should be suing the police department.

I don't feel the least bit sorry for Nick. If you're stupid enough to drink and get behind the wheel of a car and something happens, then you deserve whatever you get as punishment. Period.

However, in John's case...if you knowingly get in a car with someone who has been drinking and is a wreckless driver on his best SOBER day...then you share responsibility for what happens to you as a result of your decision to get in that car.

The whole thing is just a sad situation and a prime example of how "having everything" can leave you with nothing.

Hulk and wife are getting divorced, because they can't stand to be without money. They know they are going to have to pay millions for this lawsuit against them by Johns family. Hogans wife spends like money is going out of style and her kids are spoiled. Nick spoiled rotten. What a shame . He should have got his butt spanked years ago and he would not be in this mess today. The rich and famous...bah humbug! Bad examples for their fans.
Do I feel sorry for the Hogans? No way hosea. It upset me so much when Hogan tried to blame John for something he may have done to tick off the Lord.
These people are really something else.Are they even human?

Everytime I hear this story, it makes me angrier and angrier everytime. For those that stick up for Nick, maybe you should get your facts straight. John Graziano is lying in a hospital bed, and he'll never regain the ability to be a normal person ever again. Half of his brain has been removed and he's in a comatose state. Nick is complaining about not being able to have a window, well John will never be able to look out a window again. Nick wants to go home and serve his sentence at home until he's 18 years old because he doesn't like jail, all the while his friend will never be able to walk again. I've listened to those tapes with him talking to his dad and his mom, and let me tell you, those tapes made my blood boil. Nick is talking about having a reality show, and it doesn't matter to him who gives him the deal, he'll take the deal with the most money. Hulk Hogan and Nick are talking about how John Graziano is a negative person and basically saying how much he deserved to be where he's at now, because as Hulk says, John was "aggressive," but I thought Hulk said he didn't know John? Listening to coversations between Nick and his mom makes me sick. His mother is worried about her son and feels sorry for him, but all the while I guess she's not thinking about what her son did to a young war vetern. For that pathetic family to be saying what they're saying makes me sick. John Graziano served his country for people like the Hogan's to speak freely. Nick basically got off with a spanking on his @$$. Nick deserved the full sentence of 5 years in prison. He wants to be in general population, let him be in GP with the big boys in prison...don't drop the soap b!t%h!

Its both peoples fault.... nicks for driving the car while drinking and john for getting in the car knowing he had been drinking.. so do i think this sentence is unfair yes i do... give the kid his DUI and probation. hes 17 years old...Im sure most of you can say u were out drinking and driving or got it cars while others were drinking and driving at your age

Let me get this straight: “I’m going crazy in this room, it’s like half the size of my bathroom and no windows or nothing. Like just one little, like, you know, cot bed thing."

Hmmmm: Well how about being in a hospital bed, while your parents stand vigil over you, and you don't even HAVE the option to choose to lay on "like just one little, like, you know, cot bed thing".

Exactly.

He should have gotten LIFE.

STFU you piece of trash. John should have worn his seatbelt but even with a seatbelt he would have been seriously injured because of N I C K and his driving! You're a moron. I'm pretty sure 99.9% of people on here (and your parents) would agree that you're a loser.

And John Graziano should have been wearing his seat belt.

I don't feel sorry for Nick at all. He should accept responsibility for his actions. I heard his whiny phone call to his parents wanting house arrest. What a coward to whine and cry about being in jail with no windows. Did he ever take into consideration that his "friend" is in a coma, and does not have the chance to look out of a window because he is unconscious? Grow up Nick, and quit crying to mommy and daddy that you deserve better.

i do NOT feel bad for nick. he is lucky he only has 8 months in prison and not in the hospital with brain damage and has to get treated every single day for the rest of his life. if i were nick i would feel horrible cause even though u get out out jail u will always be remembered as the guy who ruined another persons life.

I don't know why he complain. He only got 8 months. It's nothing compare to what ``his friend`` has to go through every day for the rest of his life...Justice sucks..Hollywood gets away with anything!!!!

I am glad to see that they are finally not giving in to stars. Come on...you feel bad about how the situation cam about with the driving, drinking and feeling bad for Nick??Are you kidding? He made those choices,he may be 17 but he is old enough to know better. I am glad he has to stay put and deal with the little room that is smaller then his bathroom with just a little cot. His friends family has to deal with the loss of a family member. He might not be dead but he isn't walking around enjoying time with his family. SPOILED that is what Nick is and I hope that this teaches him a couple of lessons, life isn't all that bad. 8 months for not thinking before drinking and driving. Sure John should have had his seat belt on, but Nick was driving. He made all the choices for himself. I use to love the Hogan's as well, even things can happen to them. I am so glad the judge rules again his requests.

hes whining about 8 MONTHS? what a snot nosed little brat. hes soo lucky thats ALL he got was 8 months, and he probably will only have to serve HALF of that! used to like the hogans until this broke out...selfish, selfish, selfish...on the other hand let him out in GP=they'd love to show him the ropes!

I used to have a lot of respect for Hulk Hogan and his family (or at least the image they portrayed on their show). But listening to the tapes of Hulk and Linda talking to Nick in jail, it is obvious that they do not care at all that John was hurt very badly but their son's reckless behavior. It's too bad that Nick's cell is only half the size of his bathroom, I feel really bad for him. At least he will be able to enjoy his life after this, not John. John will suffer the consequences of Nick's actions for the rest of his life. The Hogans disgust me with their talk of a reality show about Nick trying to put this whole ordeal behind him. I hope nobody watches anymore of their "reality" TV.

He is in confinment because of his age, I beleive I read, but hey he wants to be put with the rest of the criminals put him there. Who protected his friend that night of the accident. Sad, hard way to learn that you can;t drink and drive no matter who you are!
