Stephanie Ragusa, a former teacher who stands accused of having sex with minor students, has written a letter of support to Nick (Bollea) Hogan while both are behind bars.

The alleged sexual predator wrote the letter to Nick, 17, on June 2nd. She faces charges of lewd or lascivious battery and unlawful sexual activity with a minor.

The Pinellas County sheriff’s department says they recognized Ragusa’s name on the envelope and intercepted the letter before giving a copy to Nick.

In the letter Ragusa accepts no responsibility for her actions and tells Nick that it’s all society’s fault.

“It’s not us, Nick, but something ‘off’ with society, that our situations garner more attention and print than the president, the election, or even an earthquake killing thousands. Nothing prepares you for nor prevents it; sensationalism.”

She closed her letter with the following, “I have no doubt that you will rise above your current surroundings having experienced a personal inner growth known only to yourself in these many hours of isolation. You remain in my prayers.”

One of Nick’s attorneys stated that his client has no desire to continue correspondence with the former teacher.
