Hulk's Son Will Cop a Plea

Posted May 8th 2008 1:39PM by TMZ Staff

Nick HoganLaw enforcement sources tell TMZ Nick Hogan will cop to a criminal charge in court tomorrow.

We're told Hogan will not fight the charge of felony reckless driving involving serious bodily injury. He will plead either guilty or no contest. Sources say no deal has been struck with prosecutors. Hogan will enter an "open plea," meaning the judge will have complete leeway in his sentencing and the victim and his family will have an opportunity to testify at a sentencing hearing on how the crime has affected their lives. The maximum penalty is five years in prison.

On August 26, 2007, Nick was driving a suped-up Toyota with passenger John Graziano when he crashed, severely injuring John.

We're told Hulk and the rest of Nick's family will be in Pinellas County court (Florida) tomorrow.

3. Give him the 5 years and set the example.
Oh wait he's the son of a celebrity so that means he will walk away with probation.

9. This kid needs prison not jail plus pay for all the medical bills for his former friend. That's medical bills and living expenses for the rest of his friends life!

10. This kid needs to do at least 6 months in jail. There he can think about the PERMANENT DAMAGE he has done to his friend! There are too many people pleading No Contest and going home and kicking back like it was nothing. He needs to learn from this mistake, and he won't unless he is given a punishment other than probation or community service.

11. #7, you are wrong! The person behind the wheel is responsible. My guess he will get off with no time served. What a shame. Anyone not from hollywood or money would be locked up.
