The jury in the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard Defamation trial has concluded after only two hours and is set to pick things up again on Tuesday.
Heard got emotional recalling the first time she claimed Depp slapped her after asking him about a tattoo on his arm, which she said "looked like a muddled, faded tattoo." Heard said when she asked him what the tattoo said, Depp responded with"Wino forever."
The incident's alleged to have happened on a trip to the Bahamas with Depp's two children -- Lily-Rose and Jack. According to Heard, the actor had fallen off the wagon and was hiding his drinking by pouring alcohol in coffee cups. She claimed his behavior became erratic, to the point it upset Lily-Rose, who became"panicky."
"Ms. Heard did not have PTSD," Dr. Curry said,"and there were also pretty significant indications that she was grossly exaggerating symptoms of PTSD when asked about them."If you are using ad-blocking software, please disable it and reload the page.Heard's Motion to Dismiss the Lawsuit Is Denied "Numerous witnesses have testified that Ms. Heard engaged in psychological, verbal and physical abuse towards Mr. Depp and we are pleased at Chief Judge Azcarate’s ruling to continue with the trial after Mr. Rottenborn failed to convince the court that there was reason to dismiss the case," the statement continued."We stand confident in the future of the case and for the truth to be continued to be shared.
The headline for the online version of Heard's op-ed read"Amber Heard: I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture's wrath. That has to change." Rottenborn claimed that Heard did not write the headline herself, nor was she given final approval for it. However, the attorney alleged of the headline,"Tragically, it's true."
Dembrowski also claimed that Heard once called Depp, while married, “an old, fat man," Dembrowski claims that Heard got mad when Depp was offered advertising work for Dior, and allegedly told the actor,"They’re about class and style and you don’t have style."Depp's longtime friend and neighbor Isaac Baruch took the stand on April 13, and claimed that he'd only ever seen the couple in two arguments -- once in person and once over the phone.
Day four of the trial, on April 14, saw Kate James, Heard's former personal assistant paint a rather negative picture of her ex-employer. James' testimony was part of a taped deposition that was played for the jury. She claimed that she never saw any evidence that Heard was abused or hurt by Depp, and that she was around nearly constantly as Heard's assistant.
Anderson said -- in a deposition taped in February and played in court on April 14 -- that the two engaged in"mutual abuse," where Heard would often initiate conflict, or respond to perceived insults or provocation by fighting. Anderson claimed that Depp would often try to deescalate fights and attempt to leave the situation, but Heard would amp up the argument.
However, Kipper states that Depp himself took the blame for the incident. Depp and Heard were in Australia at the time, and Kipper testified that he and Lloyd had traveled with them to care for Depp as he struggled with addiction issues. Depp texted Kipper the night of the severing, and wrote"I cut the top of my middle finger off. What should I do? Except of course go to a hospital."
"It was a complete shock," he said."It just didn't need to go in that direction as nothing of the kind had ever happened. In the relationship, there were arguments and things of that nature, but never did I myself reach the point of striking Ms. Heard in any way, nor have I ever struck any woman in my life."
"She seemed to be the perfect partner, in a sense, for me," he said of Heard, adding that, at first,"it was as if she was too good to be true." According to Depp, the finger slicing incident was a result of Heard throwing two glass vodka bottles at him, but that he took the blame for the injury, alleging that he didn't"want to get her in trouble." Depp claimed,"I tried to just keep things as copacetic and easy as possible for everyone. I did not want to put her name in that mix."
"I remember very well that when my father left and my mother, Betty Sue, first attempted suicide, that I woke up to and that visual in my head, that was a direct result of my father's leaving," Depp said, claiming, "Ms. Heard had spoken of suicide on a couple of occasions, so that also becomes a factor."
"Let's burn Amber!!! Let's drown her before we burn her!!! I will f**k her her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she is dead," Depp texted Bettany. At the time, Depp texted one of his assistants,"I do believe that Ryan , gave you a wee baggage for me??? Where does it reside???" The actor confirmed that"Munson" was a nickname for Manson.During his April 25 testimony, Depp was shown a 2013 text message exchange between himself and Heard, in which she told him she was at a coffee meeting.
Depp went one step further, claiming that, not only was he not against Heard's career, but that she had turned to him for advice about it.
