How many of these jurors will get rich off writing a book from this?

Imagine being called for Jury duty and being selected for this trial lol

Damn i missed that part with "being raped with a bottle". There is no medical evidence of that? Not even a doctor who saw that injury on her?

Im so nervous. I really hope the jury are not dumb enough to side with Heard. But with all the strict jury instructions that were given, I think it will be a lose - lose for everyone involved.

Do you think any normal person gives a shit about all those things? Many of them will already have made up their mind and were blanking out when the judge gave that long winded boring speech. I definitly would have and would have found heard guilty on all counts before the trial even started.

Amber opened up the recent social media “hate” against her. If the Jury didn’t know already “they supposed to not look up the case in any media” they now know people out side may feel same as them. It’s like a confirmation.

Also the Jury is not sequestered. When they arrive or leave court house they can see the huge crowds with signs that came to support Johnny.

I would think that would make them feel at ease to give Johnny the win and not feel guilt about!

You would think but nothing surprises me anymore. Plus we don't know who these jury members are. They could be dumb as rocks for all we know.

Not saying they couldn’t but the are not supposed to check social media. If they do, no one better not find out! I’m not sure of the ramifications other than they get kick out of Jury.

You wot m8? She staged a hoax crime on May 21st 2016 with her friends, and used that to blackmail spousal support, when she didn't get what she demanded she went to get a temp restraining when Depp wasn't even in the country, and wouldn't be for months, and called TMZ to cover it at the court house. And then went on to author an op-ed referring to that TRO and then even included sexual violence for good measure. Knowingly lying about someone committing sexual and violent abuse is not intended to hurt JD?
She's a narcissistic pos but I think it was more about money then trying to hurt JD. Obviously it destroyed his career I'm just not sure that was her intent. Even Camille mentioned the motive for the restraining order and publicity was to get a divorce settlement.

It seems like a pretty common tactic to allege abuse in these high profile divorces. Especially when there's a prenump or something in place. All about the money. But hey whatever happens she did it to herself.

The lawsuit was not because of the divorce. They signed an NDA from the divorce. Amber Turd broke that agreement and the most salacious details came after. All lies, she profited through gaming more notoriety through the ACLU DV victims. Which lead to more articles like in the Sun and she wrote the Washington Post article.

The suit wouldn’t have happened if she stuck to the NDA and kept Johnny out of her life.

I'm waiting when she points out she actually said she wrote the op-ed yesterday.
Looks like Chew isn't going to mention it either.

Seems strange getting it out of her and ignoring it.

objections during closing arguments are pretty bad
and to also have them overruled so they can be repeated again, just to highlight how important this point was to the defence rofl

I think they're going to ask for $1 in damages which will be very good for JD's case since they can show it isn't about the money. Not to mention she doesn't have that much money.

Those are some skillful mental gymnastics in my opinion. It was to hurt JD and elevate her image and her career at the same time. She knowingly, willingly lied with malice because she is spiteful and evil to the very core.

It needs to reflect the magnitude of it all, 7 minimum based on what he gave her, 50 the ideal matching his claim demonstrating complete faith.

I don't tend to think most people are evil to the core. I mean they were together for a number of years so she must have had some good qualities. But hey maybe she is just evil to the core and it's all coming out now.

I always wondered how much these Lawyers cost, and how they can be afforded. Like do Amber's lawyers take elss money if she loses? Or is it one set fee? What if amber loses and goes bankrupt, who gets the money first, Johny or her lawyers?

Also for Johny, if he wins, can he make Amber pay his lawyer cost? Is sueing for damages + legal fees a thing? I can't imagine Johny's law team is cheap... How much does everyone think they cost, 1 or 2 million?

I don't know how anyone, after hearing Vasquez and Chew, could possibly not see which way all the actual evidence points.

Attorney's fee shifting in America is very rare, usually only if agreed in a contract or if the cause of action is based on a statute that requires it.

This will change when the defence gets to muddy the waters, all down to the jury how they read it.

The judges constant references to evidence though surely puts johnny in a position to actually win this. Turd hasn't proven Waldman cost her any opportunities, despite lying to suggest she did.

Poor Amber didn't write the article, please ignore the fact that she put her name on it, or she tweeted it or that she claimed that she wrote it.
