"The Insider" has confirmed that Nick Hogan, son of wrestling star Hulk Hogan, was released from Pinellas County Jail in Florida at 12:30 a.m. Tuesday morning. In a photo obtained by "The Insider," Nick is seen being greeted and embraced by his sister, Brooke Hogan, upon his release.

Hogan, whose real name is Nicholas Bollea, served time for a felony reckless driving charge involving serious bodily injury stemming from an August 2007 car accident. 

He pleaded no contest to the charge last May, after the crash left his friend and passenger John Graziano hospitalized and critically injured.

The now 18-year-old Hogan was originally sentenced to serve eight months jail time, but was released after serving just over 160 days.

  • The problem is that the courts still do not regard drinking and driving as a crime when an injury or death has occurred. The sentence and early release is not a sign of a celebrity getting off easy but only an example of the lackadaisal attitude of...
