<h2>Why did Cain chase and try to shoot Harry Goularte?</h2>
<p>According to police reports and documents, Cain Velasquez engaged in a car chase by Goularte and opened fire on eight occasions at his target from his vehicle. One of the shots wounded Goularte’s stepfather in the torso and arm.</p>
<p>It was reported that Velasquez’s motive for committing the crime was an alleged sexual assault by Henry Goularte on one of his relatives, a minor.Goularte, in turn, is charged with thiscrime, for which Velasquez allegedly sought to obtain justice on his own behalf.</p>
<p>“<em>The sad tragedy is that Mr. Velasquez chose to take the law into his own hands, endangering the public and everyone in the truck… This act of violence also causes more pain and suffering to his family</em>,” said Jeff Rosen, the Santa Clara County District Attorney.</p>
<p>Fair is to add that, according to <em>TMZ Sports</em>, Henry Goularte has already had a trial for the charge of”<em>a felony count of a lewd and lascivious act”</em> that he is facing, but he was allowed to abandon the prison he was in “<em>on supervised release</em>“<em>.</em></p>

<p><strong>Joe Son.</strong>This fighter was part of the UFC only once. In fact, his talent for MMA is questioned after retiring with a 0-4 record.

<p><strong>Jon Jones.</strong>One of the most remembered fighters for his talent and quality in the octagon; however, also for his constant problems with the law. The recurring crime of the nicknamed <em>Bones</em> is driving under the influence of prohibited substances. This led him to crash his car into that of a pregnant woman who was injured in the mishap; also to fire a gun in the front seat of a running car.</p>

<p><strong>Jon Koppenhaver.</strong>After legally changing his name to War Machine in 2008, this seasoned fighter ofUFC, Bellator, and other companies in the industry,was convicted of 29 felonies after he raped and assaulted his ex-partner, pornographic actress Christine Mackinday.
