Hulk Hogan's son seriously injured another boy in car wreck

  • #261
Paladin,
I agree that Hulk's son didn't get into the car and intentionally hit a tree. BUT he did intentionally speed and by some accounts he raced another car. He knew he was breaking the law. As a matter of fact I heard on Fox news earlier today that he bragged that he'd gotten his car up to 108 mph a day or 2 before the wreck. :furious:
His parents knew he was reckless and imo, should have taken his keys away after his first ticket. If he was my child, I would tell him to do the right thing and face the judge and do his time. A good parent won't hide their child like the Peterson's did their son. Bleckkkkkk makes me sick thinking about it.

yes, if he were made to take the consequences, might save his life. They should be glad HEs not the one in a coma. He will probably, once hes off the hook, go out and do the same behaviors. Ive seen rich kids like this way too many times.
They know Mom and Dad will bail them out of their meses.
He knew better than to drink and drive. (speed)
The good news is, on local news, they now have a video handed over from a business nearby on court St and it shows N Boleas yellow car lined up with the Viper minutes before the awful crash. Good luck smooth talking attorneys......:boohoo:
Keep trying to blame John for this. :furious:
IMO what might turn this kid around is if he were COURT ORDERED to go around and give a lecture on speeding on PUBLIC, BUSY streets.

One of my sons got a minor infraction and the judge offered to give him community service. I felt as though cs was not enough consequence for him and had him sent to jail for 4 days. I could have gotten him out, as a matter of fact he didn't need to go in. But he is strong willed and I thought I had one good shot at driving a point home and it worked.Good parenting often involves letting your child deal with the logical consequences of their actions, which just might be jail.
I wouldn't consider the jail as a substitue for parenting?

I have another son that I probably would not have sent to jail, because I wouldn't need to go to those lengths for him to "get it"
My point is differnt consequences are in order for different kids.

I do understand your POV about helping your kids when they get into trouble. I have seen a lot with my 5 boys and no matter what, they knew they could count on me to help in the best way that I saw fit. That could include leaving them in jail or it could involve bailing them out. Just depends.

Great post and perspective, JBean, and I think you are absolutely right.

I live in same area as Boleas/Hogans. It is a LAW here to use your seatbelt and if youre not, you can get pulled over and get a ticket.

Is it a law for everyone in the vehicle to be buckled up? That's the way it is where I live and it's the driver's responsibility to see to it. If we're stopped and someone in the car isn't belted, the driver gets the ticket - $140. We have roadblock (seatbelt checks) all the time. I can't believe the number of cars that are pulled over! We've had this law for years!

TMZ video of Nick's car:

Not sure what it proves but posting it here anyway.


What's the name of the video so I can play it? It's playing some weirdo breaking the law by stating what he thinks the fate of the President of the USA should be, which is a *BIG BIG* crime, very illegal and he probably did get a visit from the FBI when they became aware of it, and rightly so, no matter the political affliliation of the President.

And it's been the law in California since 1982... I remember, cuz I was big and huge with my firstborn baby in my belly and I had to have my Ex install seatbelts in my 67 Camero cuz it didn't have any!

It's been law for 25 years... no one can use the excuse "I didn't know..."

If that's all he got, it's way too light.

Well, yeah! OMG I lost mine for 5 years for not paying an out of state speeding ticket and then continuing to drive (and get caught) after having my license suspended! Granted, I was going rather fast, over 100 MPH on I95 but I didn't crash and destroy any lives.
