Where do you retards come from?
Anyone who has actually paid attention Johnny Depp's life and career since 21 Jump Street. The best thing that happened to his reputation was being accused of unprovable domestic violence. Before this, everyone just assumed he was a violent, wasted a-hole. Now there is sworn testimony that he isn't that way all the time.

And her rebuttal direct wasn’t bad.

You don't think it's bad that, on direct, she laid out how the entire world of social media hated her, blamed her, and loved Johnny?

As a juror, who was strictly prohibited from following that, hearing her tell me how the world saw the case, would make it much easier for me to fight for my verdict in his favor. She let the jury know who the world was backing in the case.

IMO, that's bad.

Heard was not the defendant in that case... different defendant... different set of facts... different justice system (i.e. UK law instead of US law)... and that's not even getting into the alleged impropriety by the judge in that case

Elaine believes social media influenced the jury, though she does not have proof.

that's rich considering her client asked the jury to defy a court order while on the stand by telling them to look her up online when the judge reminded the jury daily to not do outside research (meaning looking up the defendant online)

It was pretty easy to see how genuine Depp was when evidence or questions were presented. I guess his legal team were actors too with the true emotion they showed in caring that the truth came out. Even at times when it didn't matter b/c the jury wasn't present it showed.

That judge also didn't know that a "pledge" to donate money is no guarantee.

It was also pretty easy to see how genuine he was as Captain Jack Sparrow. Because he is an outstanding actor.

She is not.

He also gave his testimony in some weird transcontinental accent, like he's Angela Lansbury or something.

Again, he's a much better actor than she is.

Again, he had much better lawyers than she did. Because he could afford much better lawyers than she could. She can't even afford to put up bond on appeal. He's making tens of millions of dollars a year on royalties alone.

Did anyone consider Johnny Depp violent before Amber Heard? All I really knew is he was a weirdo and a wino

Depends on a highly selective definition of "violent".

He would regularly destroy hotel rooms and trailers, just for fun and drugs. Just like any other teenage rock or movie star. Belligerent a-hole.

Partying and domestic assault/sexual assault are two very different things.

that was 1 of the most interesting things said in the trial... all of the rumors of Depp being violent started with Amber Heard... including the Kate Moss rumor


either while crossing Amber or in her closing arguments... Camille basically said the Kate Moss rumor was started by Amber Heard

Right. But the question I was responding to was literally about "violent", not "sexual assault".

And you equated "violence" with what is essentially partying. Regardless, I don't agree that a great many people considered him a violent person prior to this twat.

No, I equated violence with actual violence. That you think that is "just partying" is a you unsecure thing. I used the language of the person I was responding to.

I also don't agree that a "great many people considered him a violent person". That's not anything close to what I said.

You don't have to be a "violent person" accordingly to a "great many people" to commit an act of violence.

I'll rephrase, almost no one thought he was violent prior to this twat. That better for you, Mr contrarian?

It does not matter; Depp admitted to his faults that he is/was an alcoholic and drug addict... These weren't up for debate and were irrelevant to the purpose of the trial.

The main objective of his defamation suite is to show that he had never been the woman abuser and rapist that Amber accused and told the world.

There is a substantial difference between being an eccentric, perhaps shitty, person vs. a wife-beater and rapist.

Yes. Say what you actually mean. Don't use hyperbole without reason. It's not hard to express yourself emotionally like a normal human being.

There is no "was". He "is" an alcoholic and drug addict. Has been since he was 12 years old. He continues to abuse alcohol and drugs, despite decades of therapy and rehab.

His not even remembering punching and kicking her because he was so wasted is definitely relevant to yhe trial.

Everyone in this thread already realizes you are an irrational woman and you're not going to change anyone's mind.

Nobody gives a shite what you have to say so it would be in everybody's best interest if you just shut the frick up already.
