Former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez will remain in Santa Clara County jail after a judge denied him bail in his attempted murder case.
Judge Shelyna Brown sided with the prosecution’s push for no bail in Monday’s court hearing. She cited the “recklessness” of Velasquez’s alleged actions in her decision.
“It is clear to this court that there is clear and convincing evidence that there is a substantial likelihood that release would result in great bodily injury, not just to the named complaining witnesses in this case but to Santa Clara residents at large,” Judge Brown said (via MMA Fighting).
