[Breathe]

(JD wore a ''truth' ring during the trial. I'm so glad the truth finally won)

Johnny Depp wore a ring with the word 'truth' on it during his shocking defamation trial with his ex Amber Heard

Depp is currently suing his ex-wife for defamation following a 2018 essay she wrote in which she said she was a victim of intimate partner violence.

Can’t blame them. Let them go home and rest.

Well I guess AH is not having drinks with the handsome Irish (or Italian )juror!

I’m thinking he and Kate may be together.

I don't think so. I think she has a long time boyfriend. I think she went to JD's show to show her support, as a good friend.

So the verdict went like this:

Johnny Depp won on all of his charges and was awarded $10 million in actual damages and $5 million in punitive damages for a total of $15 million.

Amber Heard won on one of her charges in her countersuit. She was awarded $2 million in actual damages and $0 in punitive damages.

So calculating it in money only, Johnny Depp wins a $13 million verdict (his $15 million award less the $2 million awarded to Amber Heard.

Very pleased to have been here for this. Lots of great people here looking for justice, and we achieved it today.

There are plenty of jobs out there for people willing to work.

But some of them involve handling money and considering the whopping lies she told, I'm not sure that she should be trusted chashiering at McDonalds.

"Would you like lies with that sir?"

Almost… the $5m punitive damages max out to $350,000 in actual money in VA.

so she owes him $8.35m.

Did you guys ever discuss Elaine's pronunciation of Camille's last name? She consistently said VasQWEZ, even though everyone else in the court was pronouncing it correctly. I can't help but think it was intentional. These atty's are well-educated. No excuse.

Yes!!! Did you see how many times she asked the JD experts if they knew cameras were in the room? “You’re here for your 15 minutes of fame aren’t you?” TMZ was one of them!

Amber pronounced it the same way too.

Disney - wake up!!!!
Bring back Jack Sparrow now!!!!

I am happy Johnny won his case. I do feel a little sorry for Amber, she is young and she has a child to raise. I know how hard that can be.

Amber will have no problem raising a child (with lots of help) as she will find another powerful and most important wealthy man to be with.

It is finally over, I hope.
I'd love to see JD get a great starring role in a well written and directed film.
I'd love to see AH go away from public view.
Packing up now for next trial.

Another odd happening is the woman who came in the courtroom saying her baby is Johnny’s!!

I have such incredible admiration for Johnny Depp. His voice had been cancelled but he rose to speak truth in a court of law - to tell the world of Heard's lies that almost destroyed him. We listened and we know the truth. Johnny Depp is a brave human being with a caring heart!

I'm also glad we all had a voice here at WS!

Cheers all!
