"I'm not punching you I'm hitting you!" -Amber Heard
Some people like legal cases, regardless if the people are famous or not. I prefer criminal jury trials, but this is an interesting civil defamation trial.Silly is giving two shits enough to make a poll about this.
Vote and discuss.
Neither. But that's only because i don't understand a fig thing about this.
Translation: It's a dumpster fire of a mess with mudslinging added in for seasoning.I don’t think that either should win their civil cases. If I get this mess right, he is suing her for defamation (ruining his acting career) and she is counter-suing him for physical abuse (causing her financial harm). He seems to be proving that his own drug addled behavior caused his acting career (and other personal) problems, while she seems to be proving to have provoked (initiated?) any alleged physical abuse by doing so herself.
There's no sex assault allegations against Depp. Heard said someone else put that line in the headline. That's the only time SA is mentioned.

I knew they weren’t going to slip one by the court reporter!There's no sex assault allegations against Depp. Heard said someone else put that line in the headline. That's the only time SA is mentioned.

That isn't evidence in this trial yet. Let's see if that's what she testifies to in this trial.She made the claim under oath
Amber Heard Accuses Johnny Depp of Sexual Assault
Actress’ attorney makes explosive claim, which has never been made publicly before, at the former couple’s defamation trial. Depp’s lawyers called her “a profoundly troubled…www.rollingstone.com

Celebrity gossip. You elided the needful modifier.
It will be interesting watching Depp's lawyers pick apart her prior court testimony, if it is introduced as his was, like her lawyers are doing. There's been no public accusations of SA until the article, it looks like, and the sealed testimony from the previous trial doesn't count. That's why it's part of the defamation claim.She will have to or face perjury charges.
And yet here you are!Silly is giving two shits enough to make a poll about this.
Haven't gotten around to hearing Heard's testimony yet. Until I've heard her side of the story, I'll just say that I found Depp's testimony compelling. While you can't really know anybody, Depp doesn't come across like a violent person.
Vote and discuss.
Same. I'm curious about her side of the story, but from the little i've seen on his testimony, he comes across as sincere.
Something I can't shake after hearing his testimony is that his parents and wife in real life mirror his parents and wife on Blow. To. A. T. His parents and the movie he was in predicted his marriage to Heard. Talk about being a slave to fate.Same. I'm curious about her side of the story, but from the little i've seen on his testimony, he comes across as sincere.

Even if I were interested in celebrity crap, this would still be an incredibly vapid thread to me. People, or at least people with their heads screwed on properly, do not go about their lives deciding whether they should entirely believe another person or entirely disbelieve another person.
That's just not how anything works. Not life, not trials. Instead, one can reasonably believe a portion of another's statements and disbelieve other statements they have made, depending on circumstances.
He started this poll thread before she even testified?
Seriously?
Same. I'm curious about her side of the story, but from the little i've seen on his testimony, he comes across as sincere.
Yeah, honestly I havent had time to watch any of the proceedings so I wont vote until I get to watch at least the highlights of the trial. Like the others Im leaning towards Johnny, but that may change once I hear Amber's side.Did you vote yet?
Or are you like me, still on the fence?
Clearly, they both aren't citizens of the year, and both appear to have substance abuse problems. Never met an abuser yet who didn't have problems finding the truth.
One thing I will say though is that Heard shouldn't be the only one to have told her story. In that respect, I'm glad this entire matter has gone to court. Depp seems credible to me and it was proved in court that Heard got physical with him.
We'll see. I will hold off on voting until the trial is over.
