Bollea's Car Crash Victim Shown In New Home Videos
6/17/08
Emotional home videos of Hulk Hogan's imprisoned son Nick Bollea's car
crash victim have been made public in effort to show the teen the
seriousness of his friend's condition.
Bollea, 17, is currently serving an eight-month prison sentence at
Florida's Pinellas County Jail, after pleading no contest to a felony of
reckless driving following a horrific car crash in Clearwater, Florida -
which has left his friend John Graziano brain damaged.
On the newly released tapes, aired by CNN's Nancy Grace on Monday
(16Jun08), 23-year-old Graziano is shown from his hospital bed, his
injuries pixilated due to their severity.
Grace comments as the video rolls, revealing Graziano's day-to-day life:
"I've been on a lot of crash wards and rehab centers to meet with
victims and even now this is how wrenching it is to see what he is going
through."
Graziano's parents spoke out in May (08), furious at Bollea's lack of
remorse, after hearing him discuss plans to win an early release from
jail in taped telephone conversations that were leaked online.
The family also blasted the Bolleas for trying to cash in on their grief
- by turning Nick's prison stint into a money-spinning reality TV show.
