Depp-Heard trial, judge refuses dismissal of case

The surprises continue in the lawsuit of Amber Heard v. Johnny Depp for defamation that now he asked the court to dismiss the case through his attorney Ben Rottenborn. But Judge Penney Azcarate rejected the petition, so the trial continues.

Depp’s attorney, Benjamin Chew, in fact responded by explaining how the article the lady posted in the Washington Post in December 2018 (in which there was talk of domestic abuse, albeit without mentioning any name) irreparably damaged the career of his client. Not to mention the fact that Depp is not – according to him – the executioner but the victim.

Amber Heard fired her public relations team because she was convinced that she did not do an adequate job with respect to her public image. Meanwhile, she continues the petition to remove her from the blockbuster Aquaman 2 (over 3 million signatures have been collected so far). The production company, Warner Bros., is the same one that fired Depp from Fantastic Beasts: Dumbledore’s Secretsso the actor’s fans demand in their own way a similar treatment for the actress.

In the meantime the testimonies proceed: after the psychiatric consultation, the statements of the couple therapist and the Depp’s bodyguard (who allegedly saw Amber Heard punch the ex), the two versions – antithetical – of a tormented relationship follow one another in the classroom.

Dr. Dawn Hughes – after 22 hours of in-person sessions and two via Zoom – testified that Amber Heard made some intimate statements to her, saying that whenever Depp was drunk or high ‘He threw her on the bed, taking off her nightgown and trying to have sex with her. He forced her to give him oral sex if he was angry. ‘ And the doctor added that “if Depp couldn’t do her deed he would get even more angry and blame her.”

Also according to the statements of Dr. Hughes, Depp would have phoned all the actors and directors with whom his ex-wife worked to warn them. Due to a strong jealousy he forced Amber Heardagain as reported by the actress to the therapist, to wear mom jeanswhich did not allow the shapes to be seen.

In conclusion, according to the therapist, Ms. Heard suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.
