The Iraq War veteran who suffered brain damage when Nick Hogan wrecked his car on August 26, 2007 was finally released from the hospital today.
John Graziano left the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital in Tampa today in the care of his mother, after doctors determined his condition had improved enough to go home, this according to TampaBay.com.
John -- who will still need 24-hour assistance -- fractured his skull when Hogan's car hit a palm tree in Clearwater, FL during a street race. Hogan spent five months in jail over the accident -- the Graziano's civil lawsuit against the Hogan family is still pending.

Nick Hogan is as bad of an investor as he is a driver -- in a brand new lawsuit, Nick claims two guys he tried to start a business with rode him for a grand total of $130,767.75.
Nick is suing Louis Adkinson and Damon Elliot for breach of contract after he agreed to invest $50,000 in a record production company called "Confidential South, LLC" back in January -- a company Nick says never even got off the ground.
According to the suit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Nick claims Adkinson and Elliot both promised to invest 50k of their own ... AND told Nick everyone would get their money back if the company never formed. Surprisingly, the suit says neither of those things happened.
To make it worse, Nick alleges the evil duo ran up $80,767.75 on his American Express card without his permission -- so he's also suing them for fraud. Nick wants the 130k back -- at least.

Nick Hogan's car broke down in Beverly Hills yesterday ... before he could put anyone else in a permanent vegetative state.
The 19-year-old ex-con -- with big sis Brooke waiting patiently at his side -- got the vehicle up and running by adding some engine coolant.
Too bad everything isn't that easy.

Nick Hogan was all smiles yesterday at the Formula Drift car race in Long Beach, Calif.
We're sure John Graziano would be thrilled that Nick may be learning how to drag race more effectively -- except John is in a permanent vegetative state, thanks to Nicky boy.

Hulk Hogan wants to stop Linda Hogan's BF Charlie from driving cars on his insurance policy, claiming Charlie's "endangering the public."
Lest we forget ... his own son Nick, who crashed his dad's car and left passenger John Graziano in a vegetative state, is behind the wheel again.

The guy behind the wheel is Nick Hogan -- the guy in the passenger seat is the ballsiest guy on the planet.
Nick is officially back behind the wheel -- driving a brave passenger around in a black Range Rover near Agoura Hills, California on Monday night. It's been around 18 months since Nick's '07 car wreck that left his last passenger and friend, John Graziano, in a vegetative state -- and Nick behind bars and without a license.
The DMV granted him a driving permit last month for business-related excursions.

The father of John Graziano, the young man left in a vegetative state after Nick Hogan's 2007 car crash, was arrested today for trying to solicit a hit man to kill his estranged wife -- and cops say he tried to pay for it using a gift card.
According to police, Edward Graziano told an undercover officer posing as a "go-between" to a hit man that he wanted to have his wife Debra killed. Perhaps most troubling -- cops say Graziano wanted her killed in an automobile accident.
Graziano allegedly paid for the hit with $1,100 cash, a $1,000 personal check and a $13.06 gift card to Westshore Pizza.
The arrest is the culmination of a two-and-half month long undercover investigation by the Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigative Division.
Debra's attorney released this statement: "She is saddened by all of this. She can't believe so much tragedy can strike one family. Her main purpose is concentrating on John getting better."

Former jailbird Nick Hogan showed up in L.A. with a new chick this weekend -- so we just had to ask, is his "prison girlfriend" gonna be jealous?

If you live in central Florida, watch out for a speeding yellow Supra -- Nick Hogan has just been allowed back behind the wheel.
Nick was just granted a driving permit for business-related excursions -- meaning he can only drive from home to work and back again ... no exceptions.
Last May, a judge ordered Hogan's license to be revoked for three years because of his 2007 crash that left his buddy, John Graziano, with serious brain damage.

Linda Hogan, seen here at a XFC fight with son Nick and 19-year-old boy toy Charley, was probably saying: "I bet you kids have a lot in common."
Yeah, except for one, big thing...

Judging by Nick Hogan's haircut, it looks like he's finally ready to cook MC's like a pound of bacon.

Nick Hogan hasn't visited the kid he left paralyzed for life since he left prison -- but it's not for a lack of trying.
Nick was rolling in Vegas, when he told our cameras the reason he hasn't seen John Graziano -- who's been in a vegetative state since Nick's August, 2007 car crash -- is because John's family has refused to let him into the hospital.
But here's the million dollar question: Do you really blame them?

Not many families can brag about falling victim to both the Oedipus and Electra complexes.
Check out the pics of Nick hanging out with mom Linda and her boyfriend Charley -- who's one year older than her ne'er-do-well son and suspiciously similar in looks.
Brooke, who is "freaked out" about Linda's beau, has no problemo with dad dating a carbon copy of herself.
Paging Dr. Freud.

Just two days after being released from a Florida jail, Nick Hogan and Danny Jacobs, the guy he was racing the night of his infamous car crash that left his BFF John Graziano in a vegetative state, arrived at LAX.
Despite 166 days in the slammer, Nick still hasn't lost touch with some of his friends.
