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.

Where to get solar eclipse glasses for free and watch the eclipse in Southern California

Quick Glance: New York inmates' legal action over solar phenomenon

Prisoners in a New York correctional facility have taken legal action as the state's Department of Corrections announced restrictions that would hinder their observation of the upcoming total solar eclipse next week.

The six individuals incarcerated at Woodbourne Correctional Facility are asserting that preventing them from witnessing this rare astronomical occurrence would infringe upon their religious rights as outlined in the constitution.

The impending solar eclipse is scheduled for Monday afternoon and was last visible in the United States back in 2017. It will not be observable in the country again until 2044.

A representative from the Department of Corrections informed ABC News that they refrain from commenting on ongoing legal matters but emphasized that the lockdown's purpose is to prioritize the "safety" of both the inmates and prison staff.
