Berlin drag star sentenced to ten-month prison for child pornography possession
Mario Olszinski, known as “Jurassica Parka,” was sentenced by Berlin’s Amtsgericht Tiergarten to a ten-month term, suspended, for possessing child- and youth-pornographic material.
Berlin’s Amtsgericht Tiergarten handed down a ten-month prison sentence, suspended, to Mario Olszinski, who performs under the name “Jurassica Parka,” after finding him in possession of child- and youth-pornographic content. The ruling came after prosecutors searched his flat in July 2025, acting on a U.S. tip that led to hours of video and image material. Olszinski, a well-known drag performer who has hosted shows featuring left-wing politicians such as Heidi Reichinnek and Nyke Slawik, had already been fined in 2023 for similar crimes, a fact that emerged during the latest investigation.
His connections to political figures and participation in state-funded events have drawn significant public attention. The sentence is suspended, meaning Olszinski will avoid jail unless he breaches conditions. The case highlights ongoing concerns about child-pornography offenses within the entertainment community.
Why it matters
The verdict underscores legal accountability for child-pornography offenses, even among high-profile cultural figures.
