Interpreter Ippei Mizuhara faces bank fraud charges after for his alleged role in a gambling scheme in which more than $16 million was stolen from Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani.
Ippei Mizuhara, the former interpreter for Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani, turned himself into law enforcement on Friday, the Department of Justice announced. 'Ippei Mizuhara surrendered this morning to the custody of the United States Marshals Service,' federal authorities said Friday in a statement sent to Fox News Digital. A criminal complaint and affidavit filed on Thursday in U.S.
Attorney Martin Estrada said Mizuhara was so intertwined in Ohtani’s life and career that he became the star’s 'de facto manager.' The role enabled him to withdraw money from the account — at times lying and impersonating Ohtani to bank employees — to finance his 'insatiable appetite for illegal sports betting.
