Opinion/Editorial
I remember when Skeeter Kerkove talked about how Max had gotten arrested for DUI four times in one year and got off with only paying a fine. Now this according to Skeeter, though no stranger himself when it comes to abusing women, says how Max was wired months ago trying to set up Skeeter on a drug charge to win brownie points on his obscenity case in Florida.
From AdultFYI:
I spoke to Skeeter Kerkove Saturday afternoon regarding Max Hardcore’s sentencing. The way Skeeter sees it, Max’s career is pretty much finished in porn.
Skeeter also reminds me that Max, several months ago, right before his trial, tried to set him up on a drug charge to win brownie points on his obscenity case in Florida. The attempt failed.
“When somebody tries to frame somebody for something they didn’t do, may they spend the rest of their lives in misery and incarcerated,” states Skeeter.
“Talk about karma coming back to somebody? You don’t try to frame an innocent man for a way out.”
Skeeter’s referring to a shoot when 10 LAPD patrol cars showed up in his driveway. He’s convinced that Max, who he later found to be wired, set him up and had his girlfriend Jenna James plant drugs in his house.
Max claims in a conversation I had with him early last week that Skeeter is lying about the entire incident and libeled James in the process.
Skeeter, on the other hand, claims everything he’s said about James is provable with BTS footage. We’ll get further into that story in another posting. But Skeeter’s also wondering who’s going to be looking after Max’s affairs when he’s gone.
“Since Max is going to be away for three years and four months, who’s going to be in charge of finances and his house?” Skeeter asks. “Who is he going to trust with that? It’s not going to be Layla Rivera. It won’t be Jenna James. Because once they know the gravy train is gone, they’ll both be gone and will never be back.”
Skeeter feels the way Max will know who his friends are will be the ones going out of the way to visit him in prison.
“It’s a very interesting place. When I was in prison I was lifting weights, smoking cigarettes, drinking, having my family visit, having conjugal visits. That made it much easier. But I wonder how many people are going to visit Max Hardcore?”
As far as where Max is going to be sent, Skeeter predicts this:
“First off there’s no such thing as a camp or a ranch,” Skeeter says. “There are fire camps but he can’t go there because of his age, and his health. There is no way Paul Little can pass that test. It’s impossible.
“He’s done too much cocaine, too much fucking pot, too much booze, too many cigarettes. He can’t fucking do it. He cannot go to a federal fire camp. He will go to a reception center which is for all minimum security. If you’re sentenced to 500 years you’re going to that reception center. If you’re sentenced 16 months you’re going to that reception center. It’s all the same.
“From there they will decide where you will go. But no matter how low your security level is, if there’s extreme overcrowding on the day the decision is made, you’re going to go to a different prison that you don’t meet the criteria on.”
“The Grand Vizier forget to tell you this,” Skeeter adds. “It’s called an emergency override. I was transferred to the Soledad maximum security prison. Even though I was a Level 1 minimum security no flight risk. I didn’t care. I’ll fight and stab with anybody- whatever it takes to survive or to have fun. I had a great time. When it came time for me to get transferred I asked my counselor, can I just stay here? I’m already used to this program, to the two-man cell, and being in lockdown sometimes for two weeks straight. I don’t care. You don’t even get to leave your cell for a shower.”
In his own drug conviction, Skeeter was eventually transferred to Soledad South which is called “The Ranch”. He got into landscaping.
“There was no fence and I wasn’t going anywhere,” he recalls. “I just smoked cigarettes, drank beer, made home made wine and planted my bushes. Then I’d walk the yard, hang out with the home boys, lift weights and have a good time.”
“But Max will go to a reception center- they will deem him as minimum security. He’ll be the second lowest level there on minimum security. But he is 50 years old. And there’s other things the Grand Vizier forgot to tell you about. They take in all these factors- are you a high school graduate? Do you have children? Are you married? Did you serve in the military?
“The questions you answer yes to brings down your security level. They’ll ask you have you ever been in trouble with the law? Well Max has had a huge alcohol and drinking problem. That might sound minimal. But drunk driving is the number one killer of children under the age of 18 in the US. Every drunk driver is a monster risk for killing someone’s child or children. That will be used against Max. And, boy, is Max in for a big surprise when he gets home.”
According to Skeeter a part of Max’s probation will be that he cannot drink alcohol.
“And he’s an alcoholic like me. If he does, he will get a mandatory probation violation and he’ll go back to federal prison for up to one straight year during his three year probation period. One drink, if he tests positive for alcohol.
“Oh will they test him. When he comes out, will they make him a poster child. They’re going to be on him. What his attorneys might not have told him is this: they might not be familiar with the hell he’s going to go through when he comes home. He’s not going to be allowed to produce porn when he comes home. And if they catch him it will be an immediate cause to re-try him on obscenity.”
“I want to know, in the United States who is going to want to promote Max Hardcore knowing what just happened to him? What webmaster is going to be that daring? I think the only webmasters who will be that daring will be the ones out of the country.”
According to Skeeter, Max always told him he had money stashed away just in case it became necessary to bolt the country.

Compelling stuff. But, it’s all Skeeter talking.
Even if he releases the footage, and Max still cares even though he’s in prison, I’m sure Max would be able to come up with some, at least bullshit, explanation. No way for me to know how to believe.

And Skeeter seem to be much more fit that Max, who is 50 and looks 65.
And Skeeter might have been AB as the swastica tatoo in his arm proves.
Poor Max do not have a chance. Of course, Skeeter I think Skeeter did State not Fed but no sure.
About Max and Drugs. Neesa in Shelley Lubben forums (who are down for a upgrade during a week) said that Max was a meth dealer and a informant too.

I want to know is does Skeeter know for sure Max was wired? Like is that a known public fact?

There is a lot of people going wired in the Valley it seens. Some girls are wired too. You know how I know.

BTW the GranD Vizier said:
“ask Vizier if Max’s anus will be dodging urinal valentines.
“Not at all,” replies the Vizier. “People in camps are either 1) white collar, 2) rats, 3) people who qualify for the drug program, or 4) people who have done long sentences and are winding down to the end.”
Ok that makes sense if you see number 2=rat and 3=people who qualify for the drug program.
If true Max fits both.

Skeeter is the last guy who should be making judgments about the indiscretions of porn folk, if you get my drift…

Max Hardcore, I got two comments…
The more Skeeter Kerkove says the more stupid he sounds. The amazing thing is that this hateful piece of human waste doesn’t even realize how resentful and irrelevant he comes off. He’s so paranoid, he thought our Motorola crew radios, which we’ve been using for yeers – at t he trade shows, and on the road – were fucking police radios, the dumb ass!
What got Skeeter spracked? The cops came to his home for the umpteenth time because he was shooting without a permit again. Since he never accepts responsibility for his frequent fuck-ups, he starts blaming newcomer Jenna James, and in a paranoid panic, starts blaming me – even though I’m out of town attending a Grand Prix race. Skeeter kept her there against her will, and when he finally lets her go, doesn’t even pay her!
He’s really quite evil. Especially in light of the fact that I’m fighting the federal government to make sure he and others can keep shooting adult movies.
Skeeter is beneath contempt, but he will get what’s coming to him. People like him always do when they talk too much.
PS: Layla Rivera, Jenna, and Nikki Nievez have two words for Skeeter: FUCK YOU! And they want everyone to know you’re a lying loudmouth and an absolute asshole.
Max Hardcore writes:
In spite of the considerable challenges facing our industry – from declining DVD sales, an oversaturated internet – and now a full-fledged attack by the federal government, there remain a few bitter blowhards within our midst. Instead of pursuing positive goals, they spend their days demeaning others. Latest on this list of losers is someone called Benherover.
Frankly, I’m amazed Gene Ross even reprinted this rubbish, without calling to get my side of the story. In his defense, Gene claims it’s like one newspaper quoting another. C’mon Gene, your site is occasionally informative and every so often it’s entertaining, but it’s not the Washington Post.
I hadn’t heard of Benherover who was trashing the new girl Jenna James who he’s never met. So I did a lookup and here’s what I found: he’s absent on AVN, undetectable to XBIZ, invisible at IMDB, and unseen by SearchExtreme. He does purport to own a pay site, and may be telling the truth. When I checked it out, there were inoperative links and missing pages.
I do know Jenna James however, the object of his obsession. She’s a hot babe with a bright future who recently relocated to L. A. As most people know, my scenes tend to be pretty tough, especially for an inexperienced actress. Yet Jenna performed perfectly, excelling in everything we asked of her. She’s also owns a GPS-equipped truck, so she gets to work on time. I recommend Jenna James for any kind of work without hesitation.
Benherover seems to believe people care what he thinks, and considers it crucial to regurgitate the unsupported statements of a registered sex-offender. Without any proof whatsoever, he claims Jenna was trying to ‘set up’ a director who was shooting without a permit, and will ‘try to get you (other producers) sent to jail.’
His allegations also perpetuate the slanderous slur that I became a police informant, evidently to help me in my legal battle with the Justice Department. That’s some pretty strong stuff. Unfortunately for him, he can’t prove any of it. And that, my fellow film makers, may prove to be a costly mistake indeed.

PS; I never got arrested 4 times for nothing, least of all DUI. I don’t see how the so-called journalists in our industry can publish unsubstantiated crap like that, and get away with it.
I’ve gotten 2 DUI’s in 35+ years of driving. I challenge anyone to show me othewise.

Well, if this is Max (and not Tito Ortiz), you can email Darrah at

and I imagine she’ll do a post. I know she’s been wanting to do interviews if you wanna get your side of the story out as to the questions we’ve been asking on this blog.

Frog, you’re not suppose to put email addresses online because the spam bots will pick it up. I just edited your comment above to show how email addresses should be put online if by text. I have it displayed on my blog in an image because they can’t read it that way.

I just checked his IP and it’s in Missouri. So either it’s not him or it is him but his California cable company is in Missouri. He does live in California right? And are there any cable companies from Missouri that provide cable for residents of California?

Check Tito Ortiz’s iP address and the other ones that were obvious fake names. Right before and after “Max” posted, there were a bunch of other fake names used. Real name of Sasha Grey being one of them.
Also, it’s easy to fake a FROM header in an email you’re sending. But, it’s a lot more difficult to receive email at an address you don’t own. So, send the email address an email, and see if a response comes back.
