Former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez was denied bail again Monday in his attempted murder case at a motion hearing in Santa Clara (California) County, per the court.

Judge Shelyna Brown decided against allowing Velasquez bail for a second time, citing Velasquez's "reckless disregard for human life." Brown first denied Velasquez bail March 7, when she referred to Velasquez's actions as "extreme recklessness."

California is vicious in punishing gun related crimes - even of this nature. I think Cain is spending at least 10 years in prison for this. I feel horrible for his wife and kids. If they get him on 1st degree attempted murder instead of 2nd, he might see even more.

The alleged shooting victim in the attempted murder case against former UFC champion Cain Velasquez has spoken out for the first time.

Paul Bender said Monday that he fears of his life, as well as the lives of his family, after allegedly being shot by Velasquez. Bender, 64, said he’s lost function in three fingers because of damage to his brachial artery as a result of sustaining a gunshot wound to his arm.

“Good morning, your honor. My name is Paul Bender. I am the person who was driving the truck and the person shot by Cain Velasquez (on) February 28th, 2022,” Bender said. “We were simply following a court order to get a GPS monitoring device for Harry when Cain Velasquez started following us. He shot at us and chased us at speeds over a hundred miles an hour. When we came to a stop near a school, Cain Velasquez shot at us again, severing my brachial artery and nerve. I have lost the use of three fingers and can no longer work because I could not pass my (Department of Transportation) physical. Without the use of my right hand, we do not know if this loss is permanent.

“Cain Velasquez has no respect for human life. He could’ve easily shot the family in the car next to us, innocent pedestrians, or even young children. Cain Velasquez does not care who sees him do this. He does not care about the rule of law and has no respect for our judicial system. If given the opportunity, I believe he will try to finish what he started. I am fearful for my life, as well as for the lives of my family. No amount of bail or GPS monitor will stop Cain Velasquez. Respectfully, your honor, I ask that you please help keep my family safe and our community safe from Cain Velasquez and deny his request for bail.”

Well of course he fired a loaded gun on a public highway and hit an innocent man

Did anyone think this wasn’t going to happen?

 

[Moosetony]

California is stupid

 

[VinceArch]

Unfortunate but not surprising. I wonder if he's regretting his decision?

 

[HockeyBjj]

You're Cain fucking Velasquez. If you wanna go after him, use your bare hands

Don't start a shootout where you send a dozen rounds haphazardly from one moving vehicle in the direction of another and it's only a miracle the one wrong person he hit survived and no innocent bystander got shot by him walking on a sidewalk or playing in a living room.

California is stupid

He took the law into his open hands, willfully fired a weapon in public and hit an innocent person. Imagine he hit someone you loved.

shame it didn't happen in my city he would of been out the day after it happened

Man shut up. If dude was

Imagine your kids being molested and the innocent man running the daycare

The law doesn't allow you to take it in your own hands. Especially in California where they are tough on gun crime.

He shot at people, intentionally. He wounded someone. He shouldn’t get bail.

 

[Sweater of AV]

Give him a citation and let's call it even.

Cain: (understandably) *snaps*

Sherdog: "he should've chilled. innocent bystander."

 

[suffersystem]

Not surprising really. Cain is facing a hard sentence for these crimes. Though many understand the situation he was put into, doing what he did will not let him go unpunished. He is looking at serious time for this one

 

[MuffinsAppletree]

San Quentin Cain is born

 

[ScarfaceJr]

Very unfortunate what happened to his family member.

 

[suffersystem]

Cain: (understandably) *snaps*

Sherdog: "he should've chilled. innocent bystander."

In the real world it is very rare that vigilantism of this degree does not go unpunished, esp in California. Had he been more careful in his revenge or done it in another state he may not be in such bad shape, but it is not looking good for him

 

[Xuh]

Do you think it's safe to grant a man who dresses like this bail?

 

[Satan's Daddy.]

Not even dc can save him?

California is stupid

You figure it should be the Wild West with bullets flying in the streets? Especially with Cain ffs, I mean he's out of his prime, but surely to Christ he could have handled the situation with his hands.

The truth is that Cain Velasquez is stupid here.

You live in Kabul or some shit?
