It's hard not to believe that Ohtani was making bets through the interpreter.
I think his interpreter may be taking the fall.
I tend to agree with the comments posted that Ohtani is the guilty party. That said, I don't know how helpless these players are in counting on their interpreters to communicate and know what is going on.
I have my suspicions, but I am going to wait until I have more concrete information before jumping to any conclusions. We're still in a pretty early phase of this investigation.
