Harry Goularte, a California man accused of molesting the 4-year-old son of former UFC champion fighter Cain Velasquez at a day care center, says the judge overseeing his case was “asleep and not focused” on the bench during important parts of testimony from the alleged child victim.

Goularte, 45, remains out on bail and he will make his next court appearance on Nov. 13, court records show. An attorney for Goularte did not immediately return a request for comment on Thursday.

As Law&Crime previously reported, on Aug. 14, Velasquez, 42, was convicted of attempting to murder Goularte for the alleged molestation that occurred in 2022. Prosecutors called the former UFC fighter a would-be “judge, jury, and executioner” before he pleaded no contest to attempted murder and other charges.
