MOSCOW, Apr 13. The ex-champion of the Absolute Fighting Championship (UFC) Cain Velasquez made the first statement after the high-profile arrest. Recall that in February, a 39-year-old American arranged a car chase for a man who allegedly molested an athlete’s child, rammed the vehicle and then opened fire with a 40- caliber. As a result of the shooting, the stepfather of the man accused of pedophilia was injured — now the MMA veteran faces a life sentence.
"To everyone who supported me, my family and I will never be able to fully thank you. From the bottom of our hearts, we will forever be grateful to you for your love. Selfless actions and kind words give me strength in such a difficult period of my life. The hardest story is unraveling slowly — may the Lord give strength to the real victims to reach the end.
It is too difficult to relive this pain by telling the truth, but justice will prevail and real healing will come. I will never stop loving my family and all of you. Thank you for the love, Cain Velasquez,» the heavyweight wrote on social media.
