See, this is where I really start to wonder about some things. How did a guy with nowhere near enough money get to make these bets? Who as covering these debts and letting him bet more? Did someone have their hooks into him to get baseball information? Pleading guilty to federal charges makes sense if a guy with organized crime ties carried your debts. Better to plead guilty and take the fall versus get whacked.
I want to know the nuts and bolts of how the money was stolen, and NOBODY noticed. Not Ohotani, not an assistant or lawyer, or one of the accountants he surely must have watching his money.
