Hogan Divorce Could Be Work

Lawyer for Nick Hogan crash victim says Hogan divorce may be ruse...

Kimberley Kohn, a Tampa attorney who represents Ed Graziano, the father of injured passenger John Graziano, says the Hogan divorce is a move to protect assets and is more a ruse than a real divorce.

The Graziano family is planning on filing a lawsuit against the Hogans and Kohn says that the Hogans are divorcing in order to force the Graziano's to go after both of them separately which makes the entire process more difficult. In all likelyhood, they will only go after Hulk Hogan since the cars used in the wreck are likely under his name alone, and now with him getting divorced, his assets will likely be cut in half (with the other half going to Linda), thus assuring the Hogans that they will retain at least half their fortune in a worst case scenario.

John Graziano has been hospitalized since August after being the passenger in Nick Hogan's car which ended up getting in a wreck. John will now likely need a lifetime of nursing home care.

Nick Hogan is facing a felony charge of reckless driving with serious bodily injury.
