The Dallas Observer contains a lengthy expose of porn star Jordan Lee. Many in the industry were already acquainted with these allegations. Caressa Savage who was "married" to Jordan Lee, told me 10/14/98:

"Jordan has broken up with her husband Jerry, whom she married under a false name. Jordan Lee has run off with the former boyfriend (six and a half years) of Madelyn Knight and married him. Probably under another fake name.

"Jordan has sold the rights to her web site to her husband Jerry. She was already married when she married him under a fake name. They've been together ten years.

"Jordan is wanted on a felony warrant. She's a deserter from the U.S. Army. She's used twelve different social security numbers. She's a professional con artist. She's a diagnosed schizophrenic. She was admitted to a psychiatric hospital in 1989."

Brad Williams writes on RAME: "I'm sure the swastika tatoo and her admitted bigotry wasn't such a big hit with everyone on the set. I can imagine that some of the Jewish and black performers just MIGHT be a little pissed-off for some reason. Those who have a beef with "racism" in porn certainly have a ton of ammo with good 'ol Jordan Lee.

"It's nice to know that with porn there will always be employment for totally f---ing ignorant redneck trailer-trash garbage. I guess it's one less on the welfare rolls until they fizzle out in porn.

"Since she has a problem remembering which false name she's using or who she is married to, I wonder if her past HIV tests might fall into the same category of validity."

"From the Deep South comes one of the most seductive ball drainers to dance on a dick in this decade. Rough and tumble looking, with an air of white trash desperation, Jordan Lee lights up a lewd movie scene with prurient excitement, making her one of our favorite new f--- dolls on an already crowded carnal movie spotlight. She's thickset, with a body that's firm and fully packed. Suck a dick? She inhales a hard-on like its milk from mom's nipples. She's a torrid ass f---, a surefire missionary screw star who can take it every which way… Raise your rod and stroke your stiffie in a sperm shooting salute to her sexuality in Addictive Desire, Anal All Stars, Anal Intruder 9..." (Jeremy Stone, AFW 96D p.36)

Jordan's supposed enthusiasm for sex does not translate over to talking about it with journalists. I spent 15 awkward minutes over the phone with Jordan in 1995 who refused all questions about her personal life, including the existence of her amiable husband and manager Jerry. She didn't like talking about porn either. Jordan lied about her swastika tattoo, saying that she doesn't have one. She and her husband, who claim German ancestry, have swastikas tattooed on their ankles. Jordan and Jerry caused numerous embarrassing incidents on porn sets because of their dislike of blacks though Jordan now does the token black.

Jordan and Jerry are frequently disliked in this liberal industry for their traditional Southern values.

The first information published on Jordan and Jerry's swastikas came from Hustler Erotic Video Guide's February, 1995 issue. Jordan Lee then complained to AVN about a "scurrilous rumor" circulating about her, and the trade magazine published a sympathetic article by Mark Kernes describing how the couple had gotten drunk and asked a tattoo artist "to give us something German," but didn't realize until afterwards what they had received. It's a ludicrous story, just one of many that Jordan's told about the origins of her tattoo.

The incident also reveals important differences between AVN and HEVG. HEVG enjoys mocking the industry while AVN tries to protect it.

After AVN's article on Jordan and Jerry, HEVG Editor Michael Louis Albo wrote in to the trade magazine.

"Dear AVN,

"...I'm still laughing at Mark "Herbert Dingle" Kernes' Boneyard piece on poor Jordan Lee and how she and her husband were duped into getting those terrible swastika tattoos...

"Regarding her explanation of how she and her husband acquired the tattoos, the assertion that she and her hubby told the tattoo artist, "Give us something German" and then ended up with matching swastikas defies credibility. Every Jordan Lee model release we've happened to see indicates she (or her husband) is of Italian, not German, ethnicity. Besides, didn't one of them happen to notice what was being done to them before or during the preparation and process of getting inked? (Of course, considering they're from Texas, maybe we should be fair and deduct a few IQ points.)

"We shudder to think what might have happened to any hapless motorist, black, white or otherwise, cruising through Texas if these two are typical of that state's law enforcement officers.

"Finally, Mr. Kernes' reference to our staff as "pixies' is investigative reporting at its finest. It figures that only a big, fat, Truman Capote-quoting fairy like him would be able to identify the many puckish woodland sprites writing for our magazine."

Mark Kernes replies: "Mike, I can understand your need to lash out, since apparently no one on HEVG's staff bothered to contact Jordan Lee to ask her about the origins of her tattoo (which, as she correctly noted in her [AVN] interview, is never visible on camera), nor whether her selection of whom she'll work with has anything to do with race or religion. Jordan's choice of partners should be exclusively hers, applying whatever criteria she wishes." (6/95)

Albo's "Herbert Dingle" comment refers to a video featuring Mark's debut as a sex performer. Kernes weighs about 250 pounds on a 5'8" frame. Brandy Alexandre describes Mark as a "slug. He'll do whatever AVN tells him and believes what he's told to believe because this is the closest he can ever get to a woman without having to fork over major change or get his drolling face slapped."

Jordan: "I got into adult films out of strong desire. I like sex and what easier job could there be for me?

"I like other women...and threesomes - one guy and a gal. I like eating a girl out while I'm being done doggy style.

"I'm still trying to adjust to all the traffic [in LA], smog and my limitations in speaking foreign languages, haha. A word of advice to my fellow Southerners: 'Stay home.'"

Jordan stands 5'8, weighs 115 pounds and measures 38-20-32. The busty brunette appears in about 300 sexvids. As of the summer of 1997, she was the only porn star to run a full-service internet sex site.

Jordan and Jerry have one boy Zach (born in 1996).

The anal queen told Adult Stars Magazine that she waited for "her prince charming to ride into her life," which would be news to her husband Jerry if he didn't go along with the deception.

Jordan loves to work on her house and says that she never goes anywhere without her Home Depot card. The Lees drive a 1997 Jeep Wrangler and a 1995 Chevy Blazer.

"I love surprises and unpredictability," says Jordan. "My sexual fantasy would begin with a typical drive home, but…he goes the wrong way and will not tell me where we're going. Then he stops the car in the middle of nowhere (maybe in the woods), pulls me out of the car, handcuffs my wrists together and totally dominates me…making me his slave. He pushes me down to the ground, then f---s me with wild, uncontrolled emotion, taking total possession of me and my body..."

Jordan also told Adultstars Magazine the following:

Describe your perfect man: A man who is very strong and self-assured, and has no doubt about who he is and what he can do. A gentleman, who is soft and gentle when we are alone….but, when we are around other people he is strong and will take no s--- and everyone knows it. He is not intimidated or embarrassed by my career, but would prefer not to share me with anyone else, even a bit jealous. Possessive (I belong to him), Mysterious (has his secrets), wild (will do almost anything), even a little dangerous (don't piss him off).

Describe the perfect date: My perfect date would be going out 'bar hopping", creating a party wherever we go until the sun comes up, teasing each other until neither of us can stand it any more. Then going home and ripping each other's clothes off like animals, but will not f--- me until my pussy is dripping and I am begging for it, finally f---ing me until we both pass out from exhaustion...

Favorite Place to visit: Las Vegas is my favorite city in the world.

Lines I hate: I have heard them all….and I hate them all. Pick-up lines are an immediate turn-off for me.

Typical AM: I think I have some Vampire blood in me or something. I love the night. I know it is time for bed when I see the "normal" people starting to come out...

I'm particularly wild about: making love in the rain

Turn Ons: thunderstorms, feeling dominated, a man who makes me wait (a challenge)

Turnoffs: smoking, guys who want to tell me how great they are in bed, pick-up lines .

About the Adult Industry: This industry has been very good to me. Because of the Adult Industry, I have been able to give my boys a good home and they have never had to do without. I don't have to work 9 to 5, so I am always there when they need me. I am also with people (like me) who like life in "the fast lane". Which I think, makes us kind of a family.

On 1/19/99 I received this email from Michael Garofalo: "I do not know what kind of crap she has fed you but her and Jerry do not have two boys. Patrick is my son and lives with me in Texas and that lying bitch does not even pay the child support she is supposed to pay. She grew up in St. Louis and never graduated any college at all and the only courses she ever passed were because I did all of her homework for her. You ask how I could know all of this? I am her ex-husband."

2/1/99 Michael wrote: "I met Jordan in 1985 when she was going by the name of Phyllis Dee Anne Gardner which I found out later was a name she had taken from someone else. I married her in 1987 and we divorced in 1996 although we were separated in 1992. Her real name is Gloria Grimes and she was born in St. Louis Nov. 29, 1965. Yes she is a bigot big time. When she was on the Police Department in Dallas it was common. She will lie to anybody at any time. The child Patrick lives from me not her and it is true that she does not pay the Child Support she owes which is up to $2600 right now."

The March 4, 1999 edition of the Dallas Observer contained a lengthy expose of "Jordan Lee."

According to Jerry "Lee" Kastler, on September 2, 1998, "Jordan" came home, grabbed Zach, and walked out the door. Despite a court order, she flew to New York to work for an escort service. Jerry talked to the owner of the service, an ex porn star now named "Lottie Rumble" [Madelyn Knight?] who's boyfriend Martin Fisher had taken up with Jordan Lee. Rumble wrote to Jerry describing Lee and Fish smoking crack and how Rumble had to take a crack pipe out of Zach's hand when he used it as a toy.

From the Dallas Observer:

After they moved to Los Angeles, Kastler and Garofalo held themselves out as husband and wife — it seemed safer that way, for business reasons. Kastler became her manager, though industry insiders considered him just another "suitcase pimp," sponging off his wife's talents. But Kastler had a head for business and exploited Samantha's success at every turn. He claims he built the first Web site dedicated solely to one porn star, which in turn built Jordan Lee Enterprises into a
wildly successful business. Samantha would later brag to friends that the business was earning $750,000 a year. The Web site now includes "Porn Stars Uncensored," which offers paid access to the hardcore links of more than 350 porn celebrities and receives more than 850,000 hits a day (Visa and MasterCard accepted).

She doesn't know how all this is going to end and gets teary just thinking about it. She's in the middle of a bitter custody battle with Jerry Kastler, says he's the real drug user in the family, and claims he's an abusive husband who broke her nose, forced her to stay in their porn business, then cheated her out of her share of it. At least that's the position she's taking in California Superior Court.

She calls herself Gloria Fish now, she's in therapy, and she's going around the country trying to make peace with her past, hoping to reclaim the shards of her fractured life. She has asked her father, her brother, and her friends to forgive her. But she's done so much damage, told so many lies, that the forgiving comes hard. She says that her California criminal charges are nonsense and that once they are behind her, she plans on returning to Dallas to make a life with her ostensible
husband Martin Fish. Her brother has promised to find them both work with the railroad.

Two weeks ago, Gloria phoned Michael Garofalo. She was in Dallas and wanted to see Patrick, now 9 years old. It had been three months since their last visit, and no matter what, she always loved him. She even had Patrick's name tattooed on her ankle to prove it.

At first, Garofalo thought about saying no. Hell no. She was charged with child concealment and kidnapping — he had every right to fear for his child's safety. Yet he didn't refuse and let his son decide for himself. After he thought about it, Patrick chose to see her. The boy wants a mom. Even one as twisted as Gloria Phyllis Samantha Jordan Grimes
James Gardner Garofalo Kastler Lee Fish.

From the 11/6/98 Dallas Morning News:

A former Dallas police officer convicted of falsifying official records was arrested last week for violating the terms of her probation, authorities said.

Samantha Kastler, 39, will be transferred to Dallas County next week, said Ed Spencer, a Sheriff's Department spokesman. She was arrested Oct. 29 in Henderson, Nev., by Las Vegas police and waived an extradition hearing, Mr. Spencer said.

Ms. Kastler and her former husband, Jerry Dean Kastler, were sentenced to two-year deferred prison terms and five years' probation in 1996 when they pleaded guilty to felony charges of tampering with government records.

Prosecutors said that the Kastlers and a third officer falsified more than 100 police reports between May 1993 and January 1994 by including one another's names on reports for arrests in which they did not participate so they could claim overtime pay for court appearances.

4/19/99:

I hear that Jerry Kastler, Jordan Lee's ex, is trying to dump www.jordanlee.com to concentrate on the bigger moneymaking site Porn Stars Uncensored. Much of the www.jordanlee.com income comes from autographed Jordan Lee products which are probably in short supply since Jordan left Jerry.

Email: "I heard Jordan Lee sold her web-site. I hope the new owner(s) know how to run it. Jordan obviously didn't. I e-mailed her atleast four times and never got one response back from ANYONE at her site. When I complained about being ignored, she jerked me around and gave me her bulls--- 888 number to call. I suspected it was some 900 line or there was some other charge in using it. I told her I wasn't calling and she blew me off. When a friend of mine e-maield her about it, the bitch gave him an attitude."
