Don't know if anyone has been following this case, but I have been watching the testimony of the trial on the Law and Crime Network since the other day when Depp took the stand. As of end of today we're still on direct examination of John, but based on what I have seen, Ms. Heard has a bit of 'splainin to do, and as of this point, it looks like John is 99% going to win the case.
(We're not going to go into his childhood stories about his abusive mother. That was just background for the plaintiff to make it hard for Ms. Heard to declare that HE was the abusive one based on upbringing.)
1. The audio evidence presented thus far. (Apparently John had been recording some of the encounters because he knew nobody would believe what was going on otherwise.) And it was damning evidence against her. Hearing her claim that he was a wimp and a pussy because he was complaining about her punching him in the face, and she trying to defend it by screaming "Oh my God you little wimp, it was just a slap, it was not a punch." So she admitted assaulting him on at least that one occasion.
2. The vodka bottle incident. Damn, that was fucked up how he described how Amber threw the huge vodka bottle at him, hit his finger on the edge of the bar which caused the top of his right middle finger to basically come off.
3. The most damning in my view against her was the photo they showed of him on the gurney, with his destroyed finger in a splint, and then the narrowing in on his right cheek of a burn wound, where he said Amber had snuffed out a burning cigarette.
I mean, that is just totally fucked up. You do NOT snuff out burning cigarettes on someone's body. That is at least considered "disfigurement" or something. That's bad!
Anyone else following this saga and have opines?
