Hulk Hogan’s son Nick Hogan was booked today on multiple criminal charges stemming from his car accident back in August. You might remember the crash left passenger 22-year old John Graziano on life support with little more motor function than periodically opening and shutting his eyes. According to People Magazine

Charges against the teen include reckless driving involving serious bodily injury in connection; using a motor vehicle in commission of a felony; being under age 21 and operating a vehicle while having a breath-alcohol level of .02 percent or higher; and having illegal window tinting. According to the paper, blood work done on Bollea two hours after the crash showed his “ethanol serum level” at 0.055 percent.

The Hogan family response, issued via their lawyers:

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. Because Nick is still a juvenile and has no prior criminal record, we are disappointed that he is being charged as an adult offender.

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 [Hogan] family will make it a priority to increase public awareness about the importance of always wearing your seatbelt.

Oh, kudos, Hogan family. Seatbelt awareness, all so that the opening and closing of John Graziano’s eyes may not be in vain. It reminds me of the classic chick flick “Beaches,” the story of two unlikely friends discovering the true meaning of friendship. That is, Bette Midler blaming the catatonic guy for not wearing a seat belt while she’s playing Tokyo Drift in the rain after a couple of drinks. Rated PG-13 for language and gratuitous finger-pointing.
