I'm pretty sure Pete Rose wishes he had an interpreter...
|
|
|
I didn't hear him say how Ippei accessed his bank account to transfer money from it?
Get a new bank if they didn't verify $4.5 Million of withdrawals! My bank tries to shut down my card every week, for my protection!

thinking he needs a lifetime baseball ban
ARTE knew this was coming down and said PASS...i can go get TREVOR for MLB minimum
fuck the dodgers
|
|
|
Arte was betting and on the list.
The Angels suck and Arte swallows.

No spleaky, spleaky.

The Japanese have a history of protecting their own when they get in trouble
with foreigners. I predict that the interpreter will be on a plane back to Japan
before any charges are filed.
Ohtani's lawyers will clean things up. Nothing to see here so lets move on.
Play ball!

Like BoogieDown says, the Dodgers organization will buy this out, and we, meaning you, will forget about this, just like any other.
We as a nation are conformed with the status quo. We've been reduced, conditioned rather, to accept all that the super rich is allowed to casually continue to get away with.
Meanwhile you and I are arrested on the spot thrown in jail and vilified guilty until proven innocent.
How's that for being dramatic? I certainly need my dose of Mydol this morning, I digress.

Pete Rose didn't get away with it.
Neither should Butz

I think you should be able to bet on your team to win.
|
|

Absolutely true. Betting against your team is for sure a crime and severe consequences should be given. But, if you bet on your team to win, You're betting on yourself. If you bet on your team to win, drop maybe 50k-100k a game, you are gonna play you're ass off.

I'm angry.

Really?
How did this interpreter get access to Ohtani's account? Was it based in Japan?
Maybe, this interpreter answered a scam call, and gave out Ohtani's info?
Why is this even news?
|
|
|
This is not going away anytime soon. Too many questions and different versions at the onset. The feds and baseball will look into it.
Also how many respectful gamblers/bookies would let an interpreter roll up a $4 million debt?
|
|
|
Well, the Yakuza for one.
|
|

Such bullshit!
Ohtani has been cleared. Oh wow, how convenient.
His interpreter is a fall guy. Like Ohtani never opened up his check book or looked at his account to grovel in his millions.
Ohtani is too calm and complacent with such a large amount. Ohtani and all of them know just like politicians know how accomplish insider cheating using a third party fall personm

The Interpreter was able to maneuver 16 million. We get to see where it heads The Interpreter was released on a $25,000 Bond. Athletes do get screwed over by management
|
|
|
^^^ Exactly, remember Mike Tyson, and Elvis.

I'm surprised the interpreter hasn't committed Seppuku yet.

Ohtani provided his cellphone to law enforcement, who determined that there was no evidence to suggest that Ohtani was aware of, or involved in, Mizuhara’s illegal gambling activity or payment of those debts,” the US attorney’s office said.
Prosecutor: Mizuhara impersonated Ohtani
Shortly after Ohtani moved from Japan to the United States, Mizuhara helped the baseball phenom create a bank account in 2018, Estrada said Thursday.
But Mizuhara refused to give access to Ohtani’s other professional advisors – including his agent, accountant and financial advisor, the prosecutor said.
Phone and bank records indicate Mizuhara accessed Ohtani’s account online, Estrada said. And in 2021, Mizuhara started placing sports bets with a group of bookmakers linked to an illegal gambling operation, the prosecutor said.
We do not believe any bets were made on baseball games,” Estrada said. But “over time, Mr. Mizuhara’s bets became more and more frequent. And over time, Mr. Mizuhara’s bets became larger and larger in amounts.”
Any winnings were not placed in Ohtani’s account, but rather in Mizuhara’s personal account, Estrada said.
Mizuhara even impersonated Ohtani to try to get a bank to approve large wire transfers to bookmakers, Estrada said.
“Mr. Mizuhara committed fraud on a massive scale,” the prosecutor said.
Authorities obtained recordings of phone calls during which Mizuhara allegedly lied to bank employees about being Ohtani and gave them personal biographical information in order to gain approval to transfer the money, Estrada said.
“There would have been no reason for Mr. Mizuhara to impersonate Mr. Ohtani in calls with the bank if these transfers had been authorized,” Estrada said

But, But, But paw.
Ohtani has 3 cell phones. We all learned from Pete Rose. Ohtani thinks he out smarted LE. He's too valuable and just started with the Doyers.
No way are they going to lose him. LA Doyers are a corporate devil.

Only Ohtani and his interpreter know
