Cain Velasquez granted $1 million bail
According to reports, former UFC champion Cain Velasquez has been granted bail by a Santa Clara County judge. The news comes, following Judge Arthur Bocanegra’s approval of the motion by Velasquez’s attorneys on Tuesday. It’s worth mentioning that Velasquez had two previous requests denied by the court. There are of course, conditions for Velasquez’s release which include $1 million bail, home detention with GPS monitoring, outpatient treatment for traumatic brain injuries, counseling and a court issued protective order to stay at least 300 yards away from alleged victims Harry Goularte, Patricia Goularte, and Paul Bender.
