A twisted transgender pedophile is demanding his women’s prison allow him to conduct Wiccan rituals in the nude in the prison yard.
Marina Volz, 37, a biological male born Matthew, is serving a 25-year sentence at the Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women in Clinton, N.J. for filming sadistic pornography of his own 7-year-old daughter.
Volz claims to be Wiccan and sued the prison, the New Jersey Department of Corrections and head of religious services Dr. Joy Lynch in 2023 for religious discrimination, alleging he was denied access to religious items such as Tabbards — a sleeveless Wiccan vestment — and the ability to worship on Wiccan holy days.
Wicca is a pagan religion that first sprang up in England in the 1950s, whose adherents practice witchcraft and refer to themselves as witches.
The witch is now in settlement talks with the New Jersey attorney general’s office and submitted a letter in February via his lawyers with numerous demands for religious accommodation — including the ability to conduct Wiccan rituals “skyclad,” the Wiccan term for nude, Reduxx reported.
He also demands “provision of ritualistic foodstuff for consumption” on the Wiccan holidays of Sabbats and Esbats, and access to Wiccan literature and religious items.
He also wants to be designated a Wiccan religious leader in the prison.
Last but not least, Volz demands he be allowed to marry his transgender accomplice in the child sex abuse case, Ashley Romero, a biological man.
The two were convicted in 2022, along with Sean Allen, who lived with them at their Franklin, N.J. home, for operating a “pornography production studio specializing in amateur, BDSM and taboo fetish content.”
The witch and his paramour took his daughter, then 7, from her mother’s arms in Oregon and transported her across the country to New Jersey. Romero was seen sexually abusing the girl with another man in videos the trio produced, and Allen was also filmed abusing the girl.
“If this was not heinous, cruel and depraved, I don’t know what is,” said the judge in the case, Peter Tobin.
A female inmate at the prison claimed that the pair were only trying to get married so they could share a cell, Reduxx reported.
“This is a man who has been convicted of human trafficking, aggravated sexual assault, and endangering the welfare of a child under circumstances that involved his own daughter. And now, he demands the right to engage in public nude religious rituals at a women’s prison. This should shock the conscience of every American,” Women’s Declaration International USA president Kara Dansky told The Post.
The New Jersey Department of Corrections began housing transgender inmates in women’s prisons in 2021 as part of a settlement with the ACLU.
