Graziano Family Finally Files Suit
It’s been quite some times since August 26 car crash in Clearwater, Florida that left John Graziano incapacitated. Now seven months later, the Graziano family is finally filing suit against Terry Bollea (Wrestler Hulk Hogan), his estranged wife Linda Bollea, their son Nick Bollea (who was driving the car), and Daniel Jacobs (who was driving the car that was racing with Bollea’s car).
The suit claims that all four defendants were negligent in the acts leading up to Graziano’s injury. Damages in the millions are being sought, with proceeds from the suit to go into a trust for Graziano’s long-term care. Though there is no exact way to tell how much Graziano’s medical bills will actually cost over time, an attorney for the Graziano family says the costs are already more than $1 million.
There has been very little information released in the past about the exact condition of John Graziano, but now attorneys are saying that part of Graziano’s frontal lobe was removed due to crash, that he is in a “semi-conscious” state, and responds only to particular stimuli like heat and touch.
- The suit claims Terry Bollea is liable as the owner of the two cars involved in the street racing leading up to the accident, as a parent who signed a driver’s license application for a minor child, who legally assumed responsibility for the minor’s driving, and as someone who knew the likelihood of his son and Daniel Jacobs to race and drive recklessly.
- The suit says Linda Bollea knew of her son’s reckless driving and encouraged his dangerous behavior.
- The suit calls Nick Bollea liable for speeding, racing and consuming alcohol as an underage minor.
- The suit says Daniel Jacobs is liable for light-to-light racing.
