... that attorney Mark F. Pomerantz, who once supervised the prosecution of mob boss John A. Gotti, is now assisting with a criminal investigation into the finances of Donald Trump? (Sources: "Mr. Pomerantz returned to the Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office to head the criminal division between 1997 and 1999, overseeing major securities fraud and organized crime cases, perhaps most prominently against John A. Gotti, the Gambino boss."[1] ; "As the Manhattan district attorney’s office steps up the criminal investigation of Donald J. Trump, it has reached outside its ranks to enlist a prominent former federal prosecutor to help scrutinize financial dealings at the former president’s company, according to several people with knowledge of the matter. The former prosecutor, Mark F. Pomerantz, has deep experience investigating and defending white-collar and organized crime cases."[2])

Created by MelanieN (talk) and Neutrality (talk). Self-nominated at 23:36, 24 February 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Article is new enough (nominated 1 day after creation), long enough (~4700 characters), well-sourced and neutrally written. No copyvio detected by Earwig's tool (only returned phrases like "editor in chief of the Michigan Law Review"); the hook is supported by cited sources and interesting. QPQ done, so approving. @MelanieN: FYI, I noticed your edit here; I have added Neutrality to the {{DYKmake}} template part of this nomination so that they also get the credit when the hook is promoted.
