Johnny Depp Vs Amber Heard Defamation trial live

Howell was supposed to be their star witness. Amber has been looking real cocky today. I bet she knew that Howell's deposition has been cut to fuck. I'm more pessimistic for a Depp win now.

They got in that Whitney is lying to protect her sister, just not the details of why for some strange reason.

Did she burn Whitney yet? I'm at work so can't watch this live.

Nope. All she said was that Whitney was lying to protect her sister and begged Whitney to tell the truth. She didn't talk anything about what Whitney told her about having to move out or the stair incident. Maybe the harrassment campaign against her worked and she is now no longer willing to testify on Depp's behalf.

Howell's deposition was made in March. I don't know why they then didn't actually cross Whitney properly on the stand then if they knew that they were not going to get what they wanted from Howell in her depo.
 
She made an instagram post saying she has been harassed multiple times since testifying in the UK trial and recently someone broke into her house but didn't steal anything.
Should've checked the bedsheets. Someone probably left a message.

But fuck, i'm so disappointed with how they handled Jennifer. I for sure though they were going to bring out that letter.

Johnny's claim is 50/50, he has a tough thing to prove (always was going to be difficult).
Heards counter claim is going to lose. Like 15/85 chance she's losing.

Honestly while Johny would love to win this, the truth is this is as much about public perception as it is about a legal win, this whole thing has boasted his name, turned the world against Amber, and made people look at Johny more favorably.

Amber's career is 10000% over. Even if Johny losses the trial. She has no chance of winning her counter suite.

So coming out of this trial, no matter what happens Johny will be in a better position then he was. I 100% believe some studio, even a small one, will take a chance on him now as a lead to profit off the upsurge in his popularity.

Jennifer Howell had the potential to clearly turn the tide in Johnny‘s favour, so I was astounded how brief and lightweight her deposition was 😪

Imo Jhonny should win this. It has been 'proven' that Heard is more abusive than him, and there should be assumed that lying on the press and call someone abuser can end the life of any man.

Heard damage to Johnny should not be up to debate.

Elaine asking Dr Curry to provide short answers because Team Amber mismanaged their time.................smh.

Is she under any obligation to give them short answers? Sounds to me like the witness shouldn’t be punished because of the failure of the other team.

Sorry Elaine, you're blasting through your questions so fast nothing is registering and sticking. Hope you aren't trying to make a point.

So what was the point of Kate Moss?
Amber said she wanted to protect Whitney being pushed down the stairs like Johnny did to Kate Moss.

Rebuttal witness and an excuse to bring up an extra character witness for Johnny.

Edit: Honestly I didn’t know that whole story, I just remembered the headlines back then that Johnny hit Kate Moss. So this was great rebuttal to clear that up especially if the jury really thought Johnny hit Kate Moss.

Got it, thank you, I had missed that part. Weird that someone saying "i heard a rumor someone did this" is admissible in court.

So let's assume neither will win as such, but there's been enough evidence for multiple perjury case against turd, can then all the evidence theyve weaseled out of be heard in the following cases where it just heard against the court?

It isn't but JD's team probably knew Moss would be willing to testify so they didn't object to it. It's not the first time AH mentions that rumor.

JD's team screwed up with regard to Howell's deposition. They should've asked Whitney on the stand about Howell's testimony about the stair incident. So they didn't have the foundation to use Howell's deposition as rebuttal. Real rookie mistake.
