Quick Glance: Ippei Mizuhara Remains Free Despite Bank Fraud Charges on $25,000 Bond
- Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.
- Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.
- United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.
- On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-13/hunter-biden-loses-bid-to-dismiss-firearms-case-over-bias-claim
Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: Judge Denies Hunter Biden's Attempt to Dismiss Federal Gun Charges
- A judge in Delaware has denied attempts by President Joe Biden's son Hunter Biden to dismiss three federal gun charges, all but ensuring a trial will move forward this summer.
- Hunter Biden's lawyers had pinned their hopes for dismissal largely on the belief that an immunity provision in their plea agreement, which eventually collapsed, was validated upon both parties signing it. However, Weiss' office contended that the agreement necessitated approval from a probation officer, a requirement that was never fulfilled.
- This ruling signifies another legal setback for Hunter Biden following a federal judge in California recently rejecting similar objections to a nine-count indictment related to tax offenses. The trial for this case is anticipated to commence shortly after the Delaware gun case.
- Hunter Biden also alleged that Weiss succumbed to political pressure from Republicans and former President Donald Trump. Nonetheless, Noreika delivered a scathing criticism.
