Judge/lawyer confusion

This article has previously contained the following text:

"Subsequent investigation revealed that many of the loans were in default, and that the company had been paying investors with money from other loans. Bankruptcy court judge Linda Riegle likened the operation to a Ponzi scheme.[1] The same judge ordered the appointment of a trustee to oversee matters when it was disclosed that Hantges and Milanowski owed $9.8 million to a reputed former associate of Gambino crime family boss John Gotti.[2]"

The first source cited is quoting a lawyer for the investors, not a judge. Please be careful to cite the correct person when citing sources. If the judge actually said this, then we need a citation that shows the judge saying it, not a lawyer.--Falcomadol (talk) 13:20, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
