Finally, some justice in this world. Remember Hulk Hogan's 17-year-old son Nick Bollea? He was involved in a horrendous car crash a few months ago, from which he escaped unscathed but in which he managed to almost kill a friend. And finally it seems that Nick will have to face the consequences of his own actions and is expected to turn himself into Clearwater, FL police today on a warrant for Reckless Driving Involving Serious Bodily Injury.

I can't say much except "about time". The fact is, it has long been proved that the younger Hogan's passion for going dangerously fast was hard fact and not some sort of speculation. As proof, Nick has had at least three tickets issued to him in the course of the past year. In one of the past cases, the officer clocked Nick going 115mph in a 70 zone. His passion for speed however was not doubled by any special skills, as despite fancying himself a race driver in the making, Hogan only had his driver's license for a year prior to the crash.

The really tragic part however is that Joe Graziano, Nick's friend who was in the passenger's seat when he lost control of his yellow Toyota Supra (which flipped over and hit a palm tree full on) in August, has suffered serious brain damage, is still in intensive care and will pretty much be a vegetable for the rest of his life. It appears that the authorities finally realized Nick might bear the entire blame for ruining his young friend's life and have decided to investigate the matters properly.

It's no secret to anyone that Hick Hogan was fond of speed and thought about himself as an aspiring race driver. However, if the investigation proves (or maybe it already did) that Nick was involved in a street race at the time of the accident (as several witnesses have claimed), things could turn very nasty for him. I have to sound judgmental - but he definitely deserved to gain a lot more awareness on the terrible consequences of his own actions, and I have a feeling he will, too - and soon.

Update - Nick is currently in jail and has the nerve to imply that Graziano is to blame for his tragic current condition - allegedly because he was not wearing a seatbelt. This is part of the statement Nick has just released.

"Nick and the entire 'Hogan' Bollea family are saddened that criminal charges have been filed in regards to the tragic single car accident on August 26, 2007. Nick will meet and answer these charges in the appropriate arena - a court of law. The family's primary focus and concern still remains for the continued recovery of Nick's longtime friend John Graziano. The Bolleas will also continue to stand by the Graziano family and help them in any way they can.

The tragedy to both families is compounded by the fact that unfortunately John was not wearing his seatbelt. Thankfully, Nick was wearing his. Because of what happened to John, the entire Bollea family will make it a priority to increase public awareness about the importance of always wearing your seatbelt.

There has been much speculation as to the speed and wet road conditions surrounding this accident. Although all the evidence has not been evaluated, preliminary reports from the experts indicate that this was not, in fact, a high-speed accident".
