Federal prosecutors and former interpreter Ippei Mizuhara, who stole nearly $17 million from Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani to pay for gambling debts, filed dueling briefs to U.S. District Judge John W.

The proposed prison sentence would also include three years of supervised release, which would likely be moot as Mizuhara would be deported back to Japan. Mizuhara seeks an 18-month term.
