Cain Velasquez, 39, has been in the spotlight over the past several days, after his arrest on Monday, February 28th on an attempted murder charge as well as other charges. Cain is being held without bail at the Santa Clara County Main Jail and will make his second court appearance this coming Monday March 7th.

It is said that Cain was taking the law into his own hands in chasing down and firing at a man named Harry Eugene Goularte, a man accused of a lewd or lascivious act upon a child under the age of 14, one of Velasquez’s young relatives. Although Goularte was not hurt, his stepfather, Paul Bender was struck twice by gunfire, but is expected to survive.
