Johnny Depp's defamation case against ex Amber Heard, who countersued

[shotgun09]

Cheese and Rice! He did drugs! He abused alcohol ! We know that, and also so does the jury. Move on, please....

 

[BUF]

Rottenborn: you were drinking heavily, correct ? (During end of him and Paradis)

Depp: were you there?

 

[Chelly]

I feel he wanted this opportunity to tell his truth very publicly. I wonder how much is about the actual verdict.

So far, the truth has been drug and alcohol abuse and consequences of this abuse.

Cheese and Rice!

Omg I have never heard that

Rottenborn begins by asking Depp whether his sister, Christi, was concerned about his drug use. Depp says she was a "concerned sister." Rottenborn then references transcripts from the U.K. trial, in which Depp discussed drug and alcohol use while with Vanessa Paradis.
.......
In these transcripts, Depp said, "I was abusing alcohol at that time, for sure." Depp testified today that he had not been "drinking heavily" at that time.
.......
Jurors are now being shown an email Depp sent to Elton John. Depp notes the "French extortionist" is in reference to his ex-partner Vanessa Paradis.

Rottenborn: You're aware the lengths Miss Heard went to when you were impaired on drugs and alcohol? Depp: You'd have to be specific. Rottenborn says jurors will now hear an audio recording.
.......
In the audio recording, Heard says she does not want Depp to choke on his vomit while he is sleeping.
.......
Jurors are shown this photo of Depp, taken by Heard. Depp says he fell asleep after a 17 hour day and opioids that were ingested. He says Heard handed him the ice cream, because she "knew what would happen.

.......
Rottenborn: It's Miss Heard's fault that that picture was taken? Depp: She snapped it.

I’m not hearing the same.

Jurors are shown texts between Depp and Erin Boerum, and later an email between Depp and Stephen Deuters.

Sierra Gillespie @sierragillespie

Rottenborne indicates he will "switch gears" now, to discuss a trip he took with Heard and a few others to the Hicksville Trailer Palace in Joshua Tree, California.
.......
Rottenborn alleges there was a situation between Heard and a woman named Kelly Sue. At that time, he says Depp removed Kelly Sue's hand from Heard, while at the Hicksville Trailer Palace.

waste of good Talenti, lol

Sierra Gillespie @sierragillespie

Depp: I was protecting Miss Heard's honor. And I was protecting my girl, from someone who was clearly unable to deal with the substance that she had taken. Depp admits he punched a bathroom sconce after this incident.
.......
Jurors are now being shown texts from Depp to Paul Bettany from July 2013.

Omg I have never heard that

lol, a girlfriend insists I use that phrase rather than take the name in vain, first time I've "heard" it used here at WS

Above that, jurors are shown texts between Depp and his sister, Christi Dembrowski.

.......
Rottenborn now switches to the argument on the flight from Boston to Los Angeles.
Rottenborn: You suspected Amber was having an affair with James Franco, correct?
Depp: Yes.
.......
Texts between Depp and Heard, sent one day after the plane flight from Boston to Los Angeles.

.......
(On his flight from Boston to Los Angeles) Depp: No, I wouldn't agree I was in a blackout. There's a difference between when you're in a blackout and you're on opioids.

 

[Allabouttrial]

Sierra Gillespie @sierragillespie

Rottenborn: You would agree that you were very drunk on that flight? Depp: I would not agree that I was very drunk on that flight ... I had taken a double dose on that Roxicodone, which is different than a blackout.
.......
Jurors are being shown a message Depp sent to Heard's mother, during the time of his detox.

 

[Chelly]

I’m not hearing the same.

What are you hearing?

 

[Allabouttrial]

Sierra Gillespie @sierragillespie

Rottenborn and Depp go back-and-forth about Depp's length of sobriety from alcohol. Depp testified he was 18 months alcohol free when he went to Australia. Rottenborn alleges Depp was drunk on the flight from Boston to LA, which Depp disputes.
.......

Lunch recess.

 

[Allabouttrial]

Well dam. Heard's team came prepared! And they're not even finished yet.

Not sure how much can be salvaged on re-direct.

 

[rebelchild]

Is all of this stuff *new* information? did it not come out during the other trial? I'm trying to figure out why they are all acting surprised over some of this when it's all been going on for so long.

My thoughts so far while watching .. this judge is so biased and is probably one of the worst I've ever watched. I'm not sure how she ever got in the position that she's in. And the guy asking questions right now comes across as very arrogant. If I was on the jury he would rub me the wrong way.

One last thought .. why in the world would someone that claims to love another human think that it's okay to take disparaging photographs of that person when they are at their lowest? Oh I guess they want to make you look bad to other people and then continue to stay with you all in the name of love I've seen relationships like this and it's disgusting.

I agree .
At least he “tried” for something by telling the truth.
Who knows Disney may get tons of emails to bring back Johnny because Amber lied.

MOO

If Depp wins this second defamation lawsuit, will his reputation be restored?

Depp answered your question yesterday. And I don't think that restoring his reputation is the impetus here.
But, I am amazed that being the drug and alcohol abuser he is/was, he's held up very well. Looks and sounds pretty good to me. JMO
