The trial for defamation filed by Johnny Depp against Amber Heard has not yet come to an end (the final arguments are scheduled for today, Friday 27 May) but on social networks has already won, for days, the star of Pirates of the Caribbean. Most of the videos, especially on Tik Tok, feature clips of court depositions presented in a way that arouses empathy and sympathy towards Depp, ridiculing and humiliating Heard. But social media users aren’t limited to teasing, as Amber revealed in her new, intense testimony. The actress, sobbinghe said in the courtroom: «Every day I am harassed, humiliated, threatened. Even outside this court. There are people who want to kill me and they tell me every day. People who want to put my baby in the microwave and let me know“. Heard also blamed Depp of having “threatened” her, of having promised her «that I would think of him every day…». But she had to stop due to an objection from her ex-husband’s lawyers, who in the meantime was giggling from her position.
Then the attack of Camille Vasquez, Johnny’s lawyer: “Your lies have been put before the eyes of the world,” said the lawyer recalling how Amber was denied by various witnesses. Including, most recently, Kate Moss. Heard replied that she knew there would be many people “ready to say anything” in favor of her ex-husband: “This is its power. He is a powerful man who loves to ingratiate himself with powerful people“. Precisely for this reason, she continued the actress, “I wrote the editorial”. The one on the Washington Post in which in 2019 she accused her ex-husband, without ever quoting him directly, of domestic violence and abuse. Hence the defamation lawsuit (with a $ 50 million claim) filed by Depp.
The trial began in Fairfox, Virginia on April 12. And, hearing after hearing, Amber and Johnny in court gave the world the gruesome backstory of nightmare wedding based on violence, blood and decay. After the stories of severed fingers, sexual assaults, assassination attempts, throwing vodka bottles at the head and human feces left on the marital bed out of spite, we thought we had heard enough. But no. In the last chapter of the trial of the horrors also entered the scene hater by Amber. And their threats (via keyboard) of death.
