It just seems totally insane that the interpreter would have had this level of access to Ohtani's money to do this. It seems far more likely that he was acting as an intermediary for Ohtani, and now he's taking the fall. At the very, very least, it seems like it was Ohtani trying to help cover the guy's losses, and wiring money to the criminal bookie, which is also illegal.
Seriously - why would the Interpreter have access to millions of dollars of Ohtani's money?
I think for me the media coverage surrounding him just makes me hate him. They just can't get his cock out of their mouth. I've never been a worship the superstar guy. It sucks for Ohtani, because I get the idea he's probably an okay guy. I'd much rather them just go back to blowing Bryce Harper instead, he's a total asswipe anyway so no loss hating him.
Ummm actually Japanese people don't gamble. They simply enjoy a stimulating game of "flick the lever and maybe some metal balls might come out" for several consecutive hours, then they go sell those metal balls to a shop that just happens to really want them and also be right next door as a complete coincidence.
It's all completely above board and has nothing to do with gambling. Just some good, wholesome fun.
Japanese and taking the fall for your boss?

^This is exactly what really happened.
It isn’t and I don’t get why people wish it was

There’s a reason I linked the actual legal document in the title and not an article, it’s explains all of it for you, with texts and all

Unless you count their mahjong dens
