Attorney Mark Geragos says a trial-court judge ‘abused her discretion,’ and that the former UFC champ ‘will not do anything to risk being separated’ from his family again.
Velasquez’s attorney, Mark Geragos, filed a petition with the Sixth District Court of Appeal this week asking appellate judges to either order his client’s release outright or compel the lower court to hold a new hearing to set “reasonable” bail and release conditions.
Both in court and in media comments, Geragos has characterized the 40-year-old Velasquez’s actions as a response to a family trauma and worsened by a traumatic brain injury suffered from mixed-martial arts prizefighting. He also has challenged the level of threat that Velasquez poses, and presented a release plan that includes a $1 million bail amount, monitored home confinement, potential out-of-state treatment, protective orders for the reported victims, and anger management counseling.
“The magistrate judge’s denial of bail to Mr. Velasquez constitutes an unconstitutional deprivation of his fundamental right to pretrial liberty,” Geragos wrote.
