Remove Alan Maloney from his position as a NJ Highschool Wrestling Referee

The Issue

Alan Maloney, who is known for his racial slurs, ordered a black wrestler, Andrew Johnson, cut off his secured and compliant dread locks in order to “qualify” to wrestle at a match. The child’s dreadlocks were hastily cut off in front of everyone so that he could go on to participate. The treatment of this young man should never have been allowed, his history of racial slurs and treatment of this young man show that Alan Maloney is unfit to be a fair referee.
