Cain Velasquez, the former UFC heavyweight champion, received a five-year prison sentence for charges including attempted murder after he shot at a man linked to the molestation of his son. The incident, occurring in February 2022, involved a pursuit and gunfire directed at the vehicle of the accused. In a recent interview, Velasquez expressed remorse for his actions, acknowledging the danger he posed not only to those involved but also to innocents, and emphasized the importance of not taking the law into one's own hands.
"From what I can say as far as myself, the way that I handled things was not the way to do it. We cannot put the law in our own hands..."
"I know what I did, and I know what I did was very dangerous to other people, you know? Not just people involved, but innocent people. I understand what I did and I'm willing to do everything I have to [do] to pay that back."
