Dana White is glad Cain Velasquez is home while he awaits trial.
The former UFC heavyweight champion Velasquez was granted bail by a Santa Clara County (Calif.) judge Tuesday, allowing him to return home to his family while he awaits trial for a number of charges, including attempted murder.
Velasquez was jailed for over eight months after allegedly shooting at a vehicle carrying Harry Goularte, a man accused of molesting Velasquez’s son.
“I’m happy for him and his family to finally be back together,” White told TMZ. “Cain Velasquez is a good man. He’s a good person. I’m hoping that the judge that looks at this case says, ‘You know what? This family’s suffered enough.’
“If the kids haven’t suffered enough in this thing – they lost their father for almost a year. So, hopefully, the real justice gets served in this case and Cain Velasquez, who is a good man, a good father, a good husband, gets to be at home with his family.
Velasquez, 40, was released on a $1 million bond after a two-day pre-trial hearing.
In addition to no weapons, other terms of his release include GPS monitoring, TBI/CTE outpatient treatment, counseling, and a 300-yard protective order against his alleged victims. He is due back in court Nov. 21.
