John Hogan’s Wife: He’s a Good Father, Despite Killing His Own Son
The wife of John Hogan, the man I christened a "total bastard" after he jumped off of a hotel balcony window with his son and daughter, is defending her husband. Natasha Hogan claims her significant other’s actions were "totally out of character".
Um…okaaaay. Apparently, society’s definition of "good parent" is becoming more lax by the second.
I have to admit, there’s something oddly admirable about this "stand by your man" attitude. And in the aftermath of what’s happened, I can understand wanting to cling to what remains of your family as hard as you can. On the other hand, I know that if I were ever to do what Hogan did - regardless of circumstance, regardless of how depressed or drunk or whatever I was - my wife would leave me in three seconds flat. She’d have divorce papers filed within minutes of the funeral.
And I wouldn’t blame her one bit.

[…] I’ll say this about Chris Young. He had plenty of time to drive that car straight off the cliff - and his conscience held him back. I think that he had lost any love or concern for himself by that point, but some vestigial responsibility toward his kids kept him from killing them all in a fiery mountainside explosion. That puts Young one step ahead of monsters like John Hogan, who let the darkness overwhelm them. […]
