The former bookmaker at the center of the gambling scandal involving Dodgers baseball star Shohei Ohtani’s ex-interpreter Ippei Mizuhara has pleaded guilty to operating an illegal sports betting business, the Justice Department says.

Matthew Bowyer, 49, pleaded guilty during a hearing on Friday to federal charges of operating an unlawful gambling business, money laundering and subscribing to a false tax return as part of a plea agreement earlier this month, according to US Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California Public Information Officer Ciaran McEvoy.

Bowyer operated his business in various locations in Los Angeles and Orange counties, as well as in Las Vegas, and employed casino hosts who were paid a portion of the losses that the bettors incurred and paid, the release said. Mizuhara began placing sports bets with Bowyer in September 2021 and then pilfered from Ohtani to cover the debts, authorities previously said.
