Nick is the real victim here

Nick Hogan at Toast restaurant in L.A. (8/26)

Poor Nick Hogan. He still has scary flashbacks from the 5 months he unfairly spent in jail last year. I swear, you put one guy in a permanent vegetative state and judges gets all crazy. From Life & Style:

Nick Hogan was released from a Florida jail a year ago, but the experience is far from a distant memory. “There are moments that haunt me to this day,” Nick tells Life & Style in an exclusive interview. “There are times when I’ll be watching a prison movie and hear the sound of a gate slamming, and I get the willies. It was horrible.”

The Hogan Knows Best reality star, 19, served nearly six months at Pinellas County Jail for causing a 2007 car crash that left his friend John Graziano critically injured. “Time away from my family was the most difficult part of my sentence,” says Nick. “One of the things that makes you feel comforted is talking to a family member. But you don’t have a phone — you have to wait until it’s your time of the day to call. You miss being able to connect with people because everyone there is just cold, just brutal.”

“Jail was definitely one of the worst experiences of my life,” says Nick. “But it was also one of the best things that ever happened to me — just because of how much it changed me.”

I'm glad the experience changed Nick. You know who else it changed? John Graziano. Nick didn't mention him in the interview and he probably doesn't remember who he is but John was the Iraq War hero who Nick almost killed. This whole experience changed him because before Nick downed a few beers and crashed into a tree, John still had normal control of his bowels.

What a sad excuse for a human being, the wrong person walked away from that crash. Then again, all the Hogans are just white trash, just like the Kardashians.

turd ferguson

Midgity little douche!

Wow can he be any more of a peice of shit ... nope

I get what Carl is saying, too. Yes, the person getting behind the wheel is making a judgement call, but so is the person getting into the car with them. Chances are that if Nick was drinking, John was either drinking as well, or was well aware that Nick had been. However, Nick's actions since then have been nothing short of disgusting. Instead of being repentant, all he's concerned about is how the accident effected HIM. It must've been such a horrible shock for him to go from a life of undeserved fame and fortune to a jail cell that he more than deserved to be in. This is how it always is with celebrities though. They can do whatever they want, and when they're held accountable, they're just victims of the system.

In a way Carl you are right John should not have hoped into a car where the driver had been drinking, however Nick keeps playing the victim and doesn't seem to acknowledge that he did something wrong and deserved the sentence he got (I think he got of lightly). Nick really should take the blame for what he did, he should feel guilty and he really should be out there using his experience to educate young people about the consequences of drinking and driving.

Jinxy

Narcissistic little prick, the front half of John Grazano's skull is missing he's going to be a vegetable for the rest of his life and this dirty butted toad thinks even one person will feel sorry for him? He learned nothing and needs to be put down like the animal he is, I wish nothing but misery on Nick and his white trash booger eating family.

jerk

Looks like he's barely holding it together in these pictures. How does he keep from going insane?

"The Willies". Like...OMG!!

Imagine how terrifying it would be for Nick to watch "Law Abiding Citizen". None of us ever truly can. We take luxuries like that for granted.

Hopefully he'll survive his pain and have some kind of semi-normal life.

We're all praying for you Nick.

NICK HOGAN

yea asshole try it.ill beat your ass senseless. bitch

NICK HOGAN

YEA IM SCARED.. TRY IT MOTHER FUCKER AND WATCH WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU..

DMZ

Boo fucking Hoo! Too bad I can't find you on the street because I would GLADLY spend six months in prison just to bash your fucking brain in with a shovel motherfucker! You better hope and pray we never meet on a street anywhere, anytime asshole!

NICK HOGAN

fuck you asshole.. ill kick your ass like i did those bitches in jail.

TripleC

carl, you've GOT to be kidding! It's up to the person getting behind the wheel to make that judgement call. I think the Hulk would've sprung for a cab ride. It was Nick's car, wasn't it?

carl

you all seem to forget that john ALLOWED nick to drive him after he had been drinking. by no means does that means do i think john deserves this, but the truth is BOTH of them had probably been drinking that night.

Disgusted

I feel soooo sorry for him. It must have been horrible, you know, WALKING around the cell, USING the bathroon ALL BY HIMSELF, CHEWING his own food, TALKING, BREATHING, etc. He looks really broken up about it too...sigh...at least he's from a great family.

Jean

Shame on Nick for not knowing the true victim of his crime. Shame shame shame. He should spend the rest of his life, trying to make his friend's life easier, and more confortable. EVERYDAY!

LIMERICK_MAN_RULES!

Nick Hogan

There once lived a Hogan most heinous

Who crippled his friend and inflamed us

Spent some time in the pen

With a lot of close friends

And now needs to drawstring his anus

Silsmojo

That's awesome! Well said!

PAZUZU

Well Done:]

John Graziano may as well be dead. Terry Schiavo was more functioning right before they took her off life support than he is right now.

Doesitreallymatter

The problem with Nick is that when he opens his mouth, words come out.

Seriously, the Hulkster needs to pony up the cash for some p.r. advisement to follow Nicky boy to anything where interaction with the media is even remotely possible. The dude just can't help himself.

fort

This dude is only 19? He's practically bald already.

PAZUZU

Everyone makes mistakes but it takes a man to stand up straight, admit their error, take it on the chin and beg forgiveness. And then there's this weak piece of shit. Way to raise em hulk.

Caden Canyon

Yeah, he's the *real* victim here. Sure.
