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."

The Hogan family had long intimated there was an issue between Graziano Sr. and Jr. and that was a major reason why John had spent so much time with the family prior to his tour of duty in the Middle East.
At the time of the car wreck, Hulk Hogan began paying for a residence for Debra as the couple were estranged and she had nowhere to turn.
The Graziano family had shown a united front during Nick Hogan's sentencing as part of a plea deal, but this sad and strange turn of events certainly brings credence to the Hogan family's claims that there was more going on within the family than was obvious on the outside.

Well, his name is Graziano. Sounds like trouble to me... But man, the fact that he wanted her killed in a car accident is sickening.
