Linda Hogan Settles with Nick's Crash Victim

Linda Hogan has officially paid for her son's horrific 2007 car crash -- the one that left a marine with serious brain injuries.

Hogan's attorney claims Linda reached a financial settlement in an auto negligence lawsuit with the family of John Graziano -- who was riding shotgun when Nick Hogan crashed his car into a tree while racing down a Florida highway.

The terms of the settlement are confidential.

As for Hulk and Nick Hogan -- a lawyer for the Graziano family tells us they don't expect the men to settle before the next scheduled court date in September.

Linda's attorney tells TMZ, "With the resolution of this matter [The Grazianos] can have finality and Linda is able to assist John."

How about everytime she thinks of a face lift she pays the victim $1000.00 and that Nick is also made to be paralyzed from the Neck down that would be proper punishment and one more thing she needs to get re-married to that old pig.

It's disgusting that there has to be a 'settlement' at all, which seems to indicate that there was negotiation. The Grazianos should have basically been paid any amount they requested. It's not like the Hogans can't afford it. And if the Hogans believe the amount is too much, tough. They can learn to be financially hurt from this crisis, afterall the Grazianos have been devastated by it.

My prayers continue for John Graziano and his family.

Thank you Linda for attempting to do the right thing. Now if only your idiot son would step up to the plate and your idiot ex- who promised 'we will walk John out of this hospital'does the right thing, maybe the Grazianos really can have closure and a shot at making their son at least comfortable for the rest of his sad and tragic life.

I think this is good. She certainly is an irresponsible parent, but she didn't harm that man deliberately. Keep it out of the courts and settle. The only smart think I've seen her do.

Maybe little Nick should help care for John. After all, they were friends.

I am not sure I'm reading this correctly. The Graziano's have a lawsuit against all 3 of them...Mom, Dad, and kid? Separately? I would think you sue the kid and therefore his parents auto policy pays for it. For instance, I got in a wreck when I was still under my parents auto policy so technically my parents paid the settlement thru the insurance. The guy didn't sue us all individually...color me blonde, I guess.

The whole family is disfunctional as hell. Brooke seems the most normal and she lets dad oil her ass. Who does that? They're all worthless trash.

Linda settled the lawsuit with Hulk's money. Too bad the money will never let John walk again. The only thing Linda had to do was raise two children and, like everything else in her life, she failed miserably. Nick is an uneducated loser whose stupidy resulted in Jon being bedridden for the rest of his life. Nick will end up an IV drug user within a few years and commit an early suicide, at least we can hope. Brook thinks reality TV is a career and shaking her fat ass on the TV is something to be proud of. Like mother, like daughter. Brook, your music and show suck. You and your brother need to stop living off your father's name and do something with yourselves.
