Overall: 
@BuySomeApples and Kuriosatempel: Well done! Please clear up the close paraphrasing issues from earwig, and correct those—Also, I think you could make a hook out of the witness protection program thing. otherwise, we're looking good theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 19:57, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Theleekycauldron: thanks for the review! I've fixed the paraphrasing issue. How does ALT2 sound? BuySomeApples (talk) 00:50, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
- ALT2:... that Anthony "Big Tony" Ciulla had to enter the United States Federal Witness Protection Program after he testified in a trial about rigged horse races?
- @BuySomeApples:
good to go! All three hooks are approved, although despite the effort to make one about the WPP, ALT1 is my preference. Something about the words "massive horse-fixing enterprise" which I just love. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:07, 28 August 2021 (UTC) - I do appreciate that you humoured my hook suggestion, that was kind of you :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:07, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
