Bookmaker to plead guilty in gambling case tied to baseball star Shohei Ohtani's ex-interpreter
An illegal bookmaker will plead guilty to federal charges of running a gambling business tied to Shohei Ohtani’s former interpreter, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office of Central California.
Bowyer admitted to receiving over $4 million in unreported income in 2022, falsely reporting taxable income as $607,897, per his plea deal.
His gambling operation had more than 700 bettors, including a professional player and a former minor leaguer, with bets involving games the professional player participated in.
