Hogan wants leakers jailed:

Hulk Hogan is demanding judges punish the staff that leaked the audio of the sex tape with custodial sentences. He says when Gawker received the transcripts, against Hogan's wishes (He complained a lawyer had tried to blackmail him for $150,000 to keep the documents out of the upcoming court case), they were ordered to keep the contents private, even from their own employees, only the legal team were supposed to see what the files contained. He therefore alleges that only they could be responsible for the leak, and wants them to face the strongest possible punishment, which, if proven, would be a likely outcome for whoever it was that did leak the information.

Things continue to get worse for Hogan as a further racially charged conversation was leaked by a jail. He was recorded talking to his son Nick, who had been involved in an auto wreck that almost killed a friend of his, when his dad came to visit...

Hulk... "You and me been sitting on some serious phone, phone dialogue here n---a."

Nick... "Yeah, nibb-ah."

Hulk... "N---a, n---a, that means, that means you (are) my best friend. You know that God gave you this vibe and this, this, energy that you and I are going to live forever, bro. I just hope we don't come back as a couple, I don't want to say it, blizz-ack gizz-uys, you know what I'm saying?"

Nick... "Brutal" [Nick and Hulk laugh] It's down in St. Pete and it's mixed-race and we get along with everybody, so that's fine."

Hulk... "Your mom went there and said it was mainly blizz, you know what I'm sizz-aying?"

Nick... "Mm-hm."

Hulk... "And that some of the ladies there that, you know, run the school are nice blizz lizz-adies, you know?"

Nick... "Mm-hm.... I would go down there, I would make friends with all those kids down there. I guarantee it. Because you know how all the blizz pizz love us."
