I was unaware of the financial dispute with Sardi but I knew of the Stephen Peugues papers, which Sardi obtained from Peugues's mother. I know that created a lot of fiction between Sardi and Jay.
My involvement with Sardi was more on the MLk side. I was part of the confrontation with Gerald Posner in Memphis. Sardi and I confronted Posner with Jerry Ray on the release of Killing the Dream at a bookstore. Sardi videotaped the entire scene including when the security guards threatened to arrest us. In Memphis, Sardi showed me the interview with Grabow and asked me to check into Grabow's story. This is what lead me to the discussions with Madelaine and Candy about Ruby's Porn. I subsequently did find pictures of Grabow in a girly magazine and she was underage. I do not know if the interview was included in Sardi's LBJ video but assumed that it was.

Which means they had the processing equipment to develop films like that. After he was arrested, Ruby's car contained numerous photos of Jada. I don't know whether they were nude, but I've seen quite a few nudes of her on the internet. The circumstantial evidence that Ruby was involved in the porn business is pretty strong. As well as the drug business, gun-running, you name it. Which doesn't prove he was knowingly involved in the plot to kill JFK, but he was certainly an asset in the whole network of rackets stretching from LA/Vegas to Chicago/Dallas to New Orleans/Miami.
I can't answer this question specifically but we know that running strip clubs often goes hand in hand with other activities. Like porn and prostitution. We know that some of Ruby's girls "dated" cops on his suggestion. We know that he was involved in gun running. And drugs.
Curious what Lyle Sardie video are you referencing. (Sorry if I missed it, in a rush gotta get to work). I only know his horrible LBJ-did it video. I saw several copies of it, stuff repeated over and over. Terrible editing. It was like he was on bad drugs when he made it. He was also a total arse. Took advantage of Jay Harrison then tried to shake him down for money. I wrote him a cease and desist "legal" letter and he finally left Jay alone.
