Decorated Navy SEAL moonlighting as a porn star
Navy Chief Special Warfare Officer Joseph John Schmidt III has been living dual lives.

As a member of the Navy SEALs, the 42-year-old boasts a chest of ribbons and medals during his 23 years in the military, including a valor citation for combat overseas. To his East County neighbors and Coronado shipmates, he’s been the married father who has given pep talks to special-needs children in Los Angeles and toured the country recruiting for the elite Naval Special Warfare teams, even serving as the face of the SEAL program on its website.

Schmidt is also Jay Voom, the actor in at least 29 porn flicks during the past seven years, from "Apple Smashing Lap Dance" to "Strippers Come Home Horny From the Club."

He has spent most of his time in front of the camera engaging in sex with his wife -- porn megastar Jewels Jade -- for her website and film-distribution service. But he also has coupled with XXX actresses Mena Li and Ashden Wells, according to marketing materials found by The San Diego Union-Tribune and confirmed by Jade.



Joseph John, you've been a naughty, naughty boy. More at link.
Surely must beat government contracting.

#3 ...See, here's the problem: As flat-out funny and seemingly inconsequential as this story is, Chief't say Schmidt has (pardon the expression) stepped on it pretty hard.

1. First, the UCMJ says adultery is a no-no. It doesn't say 'it's okay if your wife knows about it/is standing there/it's for business purposes."

2. The UCMJ also has Article 134, to wit:

Though not specifically mentioned in this chapter, all disorders and neglects to the prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces, all conduct of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces, and crimes and offenses not capital, of which persons subject to this chapter may be guilty, shall be taken cognizance of by a general, special or summary court-martial, according to the nature and degree of the offense, and shall be punished at the discretion of that court.

3. Last, but not least, he didn't get permission to work another job off duty. This one seems inconsequential, but believe me when I tell you that - at least in my experience - it is seriously enforced, whether or not you're working at the 7-11 or selling cars or anything else. The military needs to know where the hell you're at 24/7, and a SEAL all the more so. (Related to this is that the fact that a USN chief got himself $2M USD in the hole in a house-flipping scheme is setting off all kinds of alarms for me right now, and you know others are looking at it too.)

Now. Having said all that, in a perfect world, Chief Schmidt's superiors up and down the chain would sit him down and say, "Okay - first, you lucky b@stard. Second, you know we gotta do something." Then they would let him know that the investigation is gonna take a while, but it's quite possible that if he puts in his retirement papers now, that could end up getting done before the investigation is finished, wink-wink. Unfortunately, I don't have much faith in military leadership to be that smart, and this is going to turn into a dumpster fire of a story.

#4 The UCMJ also reads -


ARTICLE 125. SODOMY
10. Punitive Articles

(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration , however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense.

(b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.


But the cancer has taken hold and everyone ignores it. How can you defend any other 'moral' legal prohibition when you don't enforce what's already on the books? Yep, hammer straights, leave the special interest groups alone? That's certainly not equality. Remember, its all about power.

#7 Hat tip to Mrs. Uluque for this story from the San Diego Union Tribune because I never read it, especially since they got bought by the LA Times. But she got all in a huff and started reading it to me. We both thought the Navy needs to set an example so guy should be busted down a rank and turned out to pasture.

#8 Yeah, well I remember an Article 15 for a toothpick at a commander's 'call-out' after lunch. They can do anything to him some idiot wants, dental hygiene be damned.
