Attorney: Cain Velasquez Victims Seeking 'Exorbitant Amount' of Restitution Money

While the Cain Velasquez murder trial may have reached its conclusion, there are still other matters to resolve regarding the case.

On Wednesday, judge Elizabeth C. Peterson granted a continuance of a restitution setting hearing, which will now take place on June 3. Velasquez was sentence to five years in prison in March after pleading no contest to attempted murder, felony assault and additional gun charges stemming from a February 2022 incident in which the former fighter fired a gun at a truck containing multiple people. During a high-speed chase, Velasquez shot at the vehicle containing Harry Goularte, who was accused of molesting Velasquez’s son.
