“I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody’s throat. You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can’t go to anymore, you’re driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife . . . I totally understand OJ. I get it.”

Linda is speaking out by issuing an official statement denouncing the outrageous comments made by Hogan, admitting that she is taking his comments very seriously and plans to protect herself as much as she can as a result. Here is the full text of Linda’s official statement in response to Hogan’s original comments:

“Hulk’s serial cheating destroyed our marriage, our family and our future. Sadly, his recent comments remind us that his definition of fair is much different than what the law dictates,” states Linda Hogan. “We have always maintained that the fear that Linda has had to live with comes from the rage and instability much too often associated with pro wrestlers,” states Linda’s rep Gary Smith. Linda and her family are taking these recent homicidal comments seriously. Linda’s attorney Ray Rafool is weighting all options necessary to protect his client.

It is insane that Hulk Hogan could make those comments … but, in the end, can we really be surprised by anything that comes from the entire Hogan family? You got the son, Nick Hogan, going to jail for almost killing his best friend after crashing his car in a reported street race. You got the daughter, Brooke Hogan, doing anything and everything (like pole dancing, for example) in order to promote herself as a “singer” … and then you’ve got these outrageous comments from their father Hulk Hogan. Trust me, it’s not that I’m the biggest Linda Hogan fan but that her husband would say such things publicly is horrendous. If he is willing to divulge these dark thoughts in a major magazine can you imagine what he must be like in private? Linda is right to take these “homicidal comments” seriously. I hope she is smart and stays as far away from him as she can. Whether he is serious about his comments or not, it would be very smart of her to keep her distance. Who knows what the man might be capable of doing. After all, he has proven by his very words that he is capable of concocting some very dark things. Scary.

Linda Hogan was safe and sound Friday after being involved in a minor car accident near her home in Clearwater, Fla., authorities confirmed to E! News. “She was rear-ended, but it was just a fender-bender and there were no injuries reported,” said Clearwater Police Department spokeswoman Joelle Castelli. The accident occurred around 3:30 p.m. Weather was not considered to be a factor (a high of 77 degrees today in Clearwater, so we should hope not!), and no related speeding tickets have been issued at this time, Castelli said. Hogan’s white Mercedes sustained minor damage, while the hood of the red Camaro that bumped into her took the brunt of it. According to TMZ.com, Hogan’s December-May boyfriend Charlie Hill also showed up at the scene, which was barely a quarter mile away from where Nick Hogan’s fateful DUI crash occurred last year.

So while Hogan may claim to “know best” it’s clear that most of them don’t “know” how to drive. Mebbe it’s time that the whole fam just sign themselves up for traffic school so that they can get a refresher on how not to slam your car into anything else. Sounds like a good idea, right?

Nick Bollea celebrated his 18th birthday today by being transferred into Pinellas County Jail’s Central Division — where he will reside in the direct supervision housing section which hold around 70 adults and one correctional officer. Hulk told us Nick was a “janitor.” We’re told Hulk Hogan, Linda Hogan, Bubba the Love Sponge and bunch of Nick’s friends sang “happy birthday” to him over a video monitor. After that, they were allowed to visit him two at a time. His sister Brooke was not there.

OUCH! I wonder why Brookie dear wasn’t interested in visiting her jailbird bro on this benchmark birthday. Meh, I guess it doesn’t matter … at least Hulk’s friend and radio host Bubba and a handsome gentleman in a yellow t-shirt with the fetching shaved head mullet came out for the festivities — that’s got to count for something. Mama Linda Hogan also came out for Nick’s birthday but she arrived separately from the Hulk group … she also brought along a birthday gift for her locked-up son:

What the eff Nick Hogan is supposed to do with a skateboard in jail, I’m sure I have no idea … but I guess it was a nice gesture nonetheless. Actually, it’s not even that Nick could enjoy or even handle his shiny new skateboard. I think it was more like, “Look at your gift! You can touch it after you get sprung from jail!”

Lord … it sounds like it was a fun party for everyone … except for Nick. After the party was dunzo, Hulk and Linda Hogan each gave interviews to the assembled media outside (watch TMZ’s interview footage HERE) which is really the perfect way to round out a birthday party for one’s jailed son.

UPDATE: Brooke Hogan wants the world to know that she was in attendance at her brother Nick’s jailtime birthday party, she blogs:

uhh…there’s such thing as a back door you jerks. In conclusion…That goes to show you that you can’t believe anything you watch on TV or read in magazines. Cause people will make up BS without even knowing the facts. Hey Media! Why don’t you gather facts, check them, and then give the public the truth? That might work. Oh no…I forgot. You make too much money telling LIES. Needless to say, I WAS there for my brother on his birthday because he is my best friend and NOTHING comes before family.

I suppose it’s possible she used the “back door” to go into the jail, where her parents happily paraded themselves in front of the cameras on their way in and out. But what I want to know is … did she get him a gift?
