Posted Jun 16th 2008 2:00PM by TMZ Staff

Bubba the Love Sponge, radio host and Hogan family friend, played the messages allegedly made by John Graziano's brother, Frank, on his show this morning. Clearwater PD tells TMZ there is an "open investigation" into the calls.

According to the Tampa Tribune, John Graziano's dad, Edward, confirmed today that the voice on the tape is that of Frank Caruso, John's 32-year-old half-brother. He said Caruso is a child from his estranged wife's first marriage.

18. ..and we're suppose to feel sorry or care about someone making threats against the Hogan family. Give me a break!

I'm sure I speak for many on this one: we'll show just as much compassion to the Hogan family as they did to the Granziano family.

Let the Hogan's rot in hell.

20. #12.....The problem is ......Nick isn't a man , he hasn't grew up . 8 months isn't nothing compared

to john's life . Nick should be in jail for 5 yrs or longer . Again this is what happens when you're

a celeb . Celebs are always in trouble , just sit back and how screwed up they're .

I once heard .....Money has the control over celebs , instead of them having control of the money .

We need to think about John and pray for him , he's the one who will not have a normal life

because of NICK . This is NICK'S FAULT . He will NEVER take RESPONSIBLITY for his action .

21. Good for you Frankie. God Bless!

23. He got into the car on his own free will. As an ex military man, i think its stupid for all this "o my he's an ex marine" crap to stop. That shouldn't matter a damn thing in this. He signed up just like me its a job we get paid to do. No one forces you to be in the military. Using the fact that he was in the military doesn't mean it should be a pity party.

24. Ok enough already. The Bollea's need to grow up. Terry and Linda have a son in Jail because they as parents did not do their jobs. They allowed Nick as a minor to drink and then get behind the wheel of a car. He caused the accident which put this guy in this condition and they chose to not take resposibility for it. They get what they deserve. What I want to know as why no charges have been filed or a civil suit against the parents for this.

26. Wow Shocking Audio.
Bubba the Love Sponge has a great exclusive !
Thank you for posting this article it gives us a true glimpse into the real graziano family from the fake fiancee who had no connection and was dumped by John for cheating on him with 3 men after a drunken party gang bang to the step brother felon and the mother who was getting all her bills paid after the abusive father beat her and threw her out of the house.

This family is pure white trash.

Thankfully we are now seeing what they meant by the family is only after money.

27. The Hogans are finally getting a taste of their own medicine. They are in no way, shape, or form the victims here. I can understand where the Graziano family is coming from.....people can only be pushed so far before they break and I am amazed they didn't strike back earlier. The Hogans deserve whatever they get for the disgusting way they have handled this situation. I think anyone that was in the position of the Graziano family would react the same way. The Hogans suck and I am disgusted to say I was ever a fan.

28. are we supposed to feel sympathy for the train wreck that is the hogan family? nice job releasing those tapes to the media but it is gonna come back to bite them...what did they honestly expect to come of all the trash talking they did about that boy and his family...i know if i was in johns' family shoes i would be really pissed off too and might make a few threats myself..johns family are in a very sensitive situation and the hogans have done nothing but try to make nick look like a victim...if it was there son lying comatose in a hospital and johns family said it was god's will nick was there how would they re-act? i'm sure they would be shocked and appalled and very angry. the best thing the hogans could do is to shut up and have a bit of respect and stop whining and disappear from the media spotlight..

29. If the only comment from the police is that there is an "open investigation" into the source of the calls, how is it that that great legal and analytical mind, Bubba the Love Sponge, can categorically attribute them to Frank Graziano? How do we know they weren't made by someone PAID by Terry's recently-hired crisis management PR firm, just as they pay people to post favorable Bollea posts here. Does Terry have a voice analysis expert living in his guest house (after all, SOMEONE has to drink all the beer he stocked there for Nick and his friends). Keep in mind that anyone who attributes these criminal threats to Frank Graziano will subject themselves to a defamation action if it turns out he did NOT make the calls. So Bubba should shut his fat, uninformed, Hulk-ass-kissing mouth.

30. Wait a minute. Am I the only one who thinks these calls may be phoney and cooked up by some reject "Soprano" wannabe? I think maybe I'll call over there using my best "ALF" or "Courage, the Insult Dog" voices and then we'll see if they start arresting puppets for threatening Hogans. "Their creepy and their kooky.....mysterious & spooky. Their altogether ooky........the Hogan F-a-m-i-l-y."
