If anyone still has doubts, this testimony demonstrating AH's photos were altered to show bruises, should help them make a logical decision.

Is this standard?

I don't know! Probably? I hope a lawyer or someone who truly knows can chime in on your question.

Analysing photos of Amber Heard's injuries

Bryan Neumeister, an expert in digital forensics, tells the court he was asked to analyse photos of purported injuries to Amber Heard to see if they were genuine or had been altered.

He says he analysed photos submitted by Heard's legal team and that he started off looking at "exit data" which will tell you information about the type of lens used, whether the flash fired etc.

Mr Neumeister says the photos he looked at have been submitted as evidence.



First of all, he is shown this picture and says there have been "many versions of this photo... dozens of different versions", some with different file sizes, different physical sizes, and some had been through photo-editing software programs, he says.

The court is shown three versions of the photo. "All three of these photos had to go through some type of transformation to change sizes," he says.

Mr Neumeister also gives his opinion on other photos showing Heard with bruising, looking at the exit data - and says this shows they have gone through Photos 3.0 editing software.

I do feel a little bad for AH's attorneys because I do think she lied to them, and it has to be hard to defend someone when you don't know the real truth.

She has to know that is never a good thing to do with your attorneys! She should be smart enough to know it often backfires! She will blame her team though for her lies.

B list celebrities

And YES the B-list celebrities is hilarious! He got that right in there with no hesitation!

Yesterday I was thinking the jury would call it a draw and not impose any damages on either side.

Sort of " turn around and the both of you walk away"

After this display of Amber's perjury, I think they will award significant financial damages to JD.

Chanley Painter said a couple of the jurors smiled at JD today. That’s HUGE !!!
I think you are spot on.

Is there a link somewhere to say/show how this 'time thing' works? I was wondering if they actually count the 'cross' time, and just include the 'direct examination' time.. but it seems from what I'm reading here, that the cross examination time is also included in the count?

I don't know that there is a link. The judge gave a hard stop for the trial and told each side that they were getting so many hours to present their case. I believe she tells how much time is left for each side at the end of the day after the jury is dismissed.

Yeah this is why I don’t like witnesses mouthing off to opposing counsel. They’re doing a job. Cross is supposed to try to discredit the witness - so “15 mins of fame” was a legit mode of attack. We can criticize them all we want but IMO witnesses, esp lay witnesses, need to just answer the q and go. I think it makes the witness unlikable. The TMZ witness rolled his eyes at Elaine during his direct exam. Obv some people will like it but it’s possible there will be some jurors who won’t appreciate that kinda bias.

Elaine is not my fav atty but she’s doing her best for a difficult client!

But are they going say that the photos were only edited to change their size, or something benign like that?

I wish this guy could be more definitive about what was changed.

Her legal team must have confiscated her bottle. I don't see her sipping water lately.

I keep thinking it’s definitely not smart water

They can say that, but since there's no way to know, I think the jury (and we all) should be skeptical regarding their authenticity. Also, there was no testimony about the colors but the jury heard those objections. That seems pretty innocuous unless there's something to hide, IMO.

If AH had played it nice, I'll bet she could have walked away with $10 million or so in the divorce.

Being a proven liar, an abuser, a horrible manipulator and stupid, at that means she will likely owe JD more $$ than she can ever make in her entire life.

Emotional intelligence is such a valuable life skill and she has absolutely none of it.

He probably will elaborate, but it seems he keeps getting objected. I guess we'll see.

I wonder if she is thinking about book rights.

Hi Weki good to see you!
Respectfully I think he just picked up the rock ELAINE THREW at him and sent it back to her.

Okay, slight quibble: the photos that purportedly showed bruises were altered. There is no forensic trail to show how the photos were altered. But aside from me being overly pedantic, I definitely agree that the obvious conclusion is that the sizes would not have increased had no enhancements happened. IMO.

But the recent guy that mouthed off did it IN RETURN as she was the one being rude to him.

 

[katydid23]

ohhh, a video of these photos? Very interesting....I hope it gets admitted into evidence....

 

[katydid23]

AH and Elaine are in a very animated discussion, while JD and friends are sitting calmly...

Thanks! You too!
