After almost six months behind bars, Nick Hogan (Bollea) has been released from jail.
His sentence, resulting from a car accident that left his passenger in a vegetative state for life, was cut short by three months for good behavior.
Young Nick, however, may be walking out of one nightmare and into another.
Since his time in prison, his parents Hulk (real name Terry Bollea) and Linda have filed for divorce while involved in a very public dispute over houses and money. And his sister Brooke Hogan can't seem to shake a bad Hollywood reputation as an airhead.
Nick Hogan was released from Pinellas County Jail just after midnight Tuesday morning. Nick copped a no contest to a felony charge of reckless driving involving serious bodily injury last spring. He was sentenced to eight months in jail.
Nick may be getting out early for good behavior, but he still has 500 hours of community service, five years probation and a three-year license suspension to look forward to.
His best friend and passenger in the car, John Graziano, remains hospitalized and will require medical care the rest of his life.
