Cain Velasquez was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading no contest to charges stemming from a shooting incident linked to his son’s alleged molestation. A restitution hearing for the victims is scheduled for June 3, amid disputes over the amount demanded. Velasquez's attorney argues that the victims’ claims, including a $1 million daycare expense, are unreasonable. The District Attorney expressed hope for a swift resolution to the financial restitution process for the victims.
"The victims in this case are seeking an exorbitant amount of money," Hessling said in court (transcription via MMAjunkie.com). "The defense's position is that it's unreasonable, so we do intend on litigating this."
District Attorney Aaron French stated that the victims are hopeful for a relatively quick resolution to this portion of the case, indicating a desire for closure and a clear outcome.
