Sodomy and Tiger Cages

While serving out his prison sentence, Idema claims to have sent his story to none other than Steven Spielberg for consideration.  At the same time, Idema was courting a new-found friend from 60 Minutes, Gary Scurka.  Scurka began work on a documentary film, called “Never Give Up:  The J. Keith Idema Story,” which was to outline the conspiracy the U.S. government had against Idema; how it had framed him, and how Idema had basically saved the world from the dangers of ‘backpack’ nuclear weapons.

                 The documentary never made it past the promotional trailer stage of filming, and was canned due to lack of budget and interest. 

                 At the same time, Idema began a prison-to-prison pen-pal relationship with Vickie A. Boyette, originally from Cleveland, Ohio.  Boyette was serving a sentence in Texas for check fraud while operating a lingerie business in Fort Worth.  Boyette claimed to have been abused by guards at the facility by being kept in a metal tiger cage as punishment while at the correctional facility.  Idema called upon Scurka, who was now a producer with the CBS tabloid news show Inside Edition.  Scurka once again came to the aid of Idema and his pen-pal, and aired an investigative piece about the use of tiger cages in the Texas women’s prison on the show.

                 When Idema was released from prison, he and Boyette met up, in person, and Vickie Boyette became Victoria Robertson. Idema claimed that he had impersonated a Texas Ranger to get inside her prison facility and get footage for Inside Edition.  Boyette/Robertson violated her Texas parole with Idema’s help and the new couple moved to Cameron, North Carolina.   Idema began to verbally abuse, beat and choke Viktoria on a regular basis, as witnessed over the years by many friends, associates and employees. 

Sex was rough, strange and controlling, as well.  Acording to Viktoria, Jonathan Idema even forced her to penetrate his anus roughly with a black rubber dildo; according to her, this is the only way he could climax during sex.

                 Gary Scurka, who came to increasingly rely on Idema for story ideas, was also present, and hard at work on two stories--the first being an investigation into the murder charges against Colonel George Maracek, a decorated Special Forces soldier who was serving a prison sentence for the murder of his wife; second, a lawsuit against Spielberg’s DreamWorks LLC.  Idema alleged that DreamWorks stole his story idea, called Red Bull (shit) Rising, and turned it into their own film, The Peacemaker.  Not only that, but George Clooney played the part of Keith Idema in the blockbuster film.  “Sue Stealberg” became the motley crew’s motto, and Idema’s serial litigation continued.  The suit was later dismissed, and Idema et al were ordered to pay $287,000 in legal fees to DreamWorks LLC.
