Now that Amber has testified as well, I think it’s very telling that Johnny demonstrates being hit by how he reacted, cowering, and Amber demonstrates being hit by showing the physical motion of hitting someone.
As a survivor of DV, I would have been absolutely terrified saying the things Amber said. I used to hide in the bathroom too, just to get away from the constant anxiety of being in an abusive relationship and to put a physical barrier between him and myself. It makes me sick she tried to spin this in her favor.
@@TheEmilyDBaker terrified is an understatement, it’s twisted! Anything in my abusers hands could have been a weapon, why give him an engraved knife!?!?! That says until death as well….. nope nope nopity nope!
I understand that people in difficult situations often don’t make choices that seem the most logical to an outside observer…but Nothing about the things she said and did ring true to her primarily being the victim. The lies are so troubling.
As someone who is a survivor of an abusive relationship, I can relate to why he doesn't want to destroy her in his testimony. Abuse is complicated. One part of you remembers how you used to love them and somewhat want to protect them. Another part of you feels embarrassed for allowing yourself to be treated so horribly. You're afraid of judgment from others or that they won't believe you.
Its also probably a kind heart.....and yes if we adopt a pet, and they turn out troublesome, we still have to stay kind. I think all he has done, is for her to get the help she needs. Enough BS. This young lady, has to be in good care. He probably will pay for it. He does not need money. He will continue being a fabulous actor. No nonsense, can destroy a consistent soul.
Exactly. And that's how I'm for sure she was not abused by him what so ever she took the stand and IMMEDIATELY started taking digs at him and bashing him. You don't do that when your a survivor of abuse.
This. And, after a certain point you don’t want to hang onto the anger and hurt so you tell the raw truth in a - how he’s doing it - factual tone more than an emotional one.
I’m an RN AND had my right thumb traumatically amputated in my 20’s. I will say that when you have a severing of a digit, the hand has more nerves and vessels than any other part of the human body (it is used for tactile feedback). The idea of not having opiates for this injury is unthinkable. Even with Vicodin, I went into shock the next day from the intense pain. Also you have nerve feedback from an amputation in the form of phantom pain which is excruciating. But add to this any infection- much less a life and limb threatening MRSA infection that can spread to the blood and kill a person- having reconstruction surgery and a pin makes the pain even worse and you have difficulty even moving or lowering the hand. And God forbid if someone bumps your vulnerable arm with the injury! It is so very painful that the person with this injury would be guarding their hand involuntarily without even thinking about it. With hand surgery of this type there is no hard “cast” like Amber claims..There is a very soft and padded bandage to protect the wound and a cast could actually cause a serious problem such as compression syndrome. This is nothing like a broken bone- pins need to be cleaned daily and the wound needs to be visually assessed weekly. So her claim that he had a cast is a flat out lie. Never is there a cast after microsurgery of the hand for amputation reconstruction and pins, etc. Just my experience as a nurse and a patient.
Wow. I found myself instinctively curling my fingers up into a fist as if to protect them, while reading your post. I am so sorry you went through such an experience and I have even more empathy for JD as well as my father who crushed his finger in an 80 ton press many years ago. They were able to save it and I already imagined it was painful but hearing about the nerves just made me realize it must of been so much worse. Thank you for your insight on all this.
One thing I've noticed through this trial is that JD demonstrated the fights and/or situations as the abused and AH spoke and demonstrated things as the abuser.
Unpopular opinion but most DV cases have some mutual participation. We've only heard from him at this point, I am curious to hear her testimony. The drugs, the control issues, the age difference, etc - that marriage was going to fail. The moment he decided their fights needed to be recorded- and she went with it too- that's a big, flashing red light your relationship is basically done. I can't imagine staying if I fought with someone and one or both of us felt we needed to tape it. Insane
My heart breaks for Johnny I believe he’s a huge victim of domestic violence with that being said I love his attitude about “ hear say” that cracked me up. It was like a glimpse of his personality amidst all this darkness and him having to recount terrible incident’s he’s been in with Ms.Heard.
I love his dry sense of humor. Wasn't a huge fan of his (not anti, just indifferent) before all this, but between how this trial has humanized him (and how sad this makes me for him), I'm a fan now.
Dude is battling addiction, his mother is dying, he has been robbed of 100s of millions and his wife is shitting the bed and heading out to coachella. Unreal! Talk about rich people problems. 🙄
I feel like he called her bluff and it totally backfired on her. Now that he fought back everyone hears the actual details of their horrendous marriage and can form their own opinion instead of a “he said she said” scenario
I’m glad they didn’t interrupt and narrow him down. It’s important that he gets to tell his story with his words the way he needs to. Win or lose I do believe his team know the importance of him getting to speak all of his words.
@@edelweiss2.076 they are specifically asking him several times to name drop. It gives credibility, and they are mostly future witnesses so context to their relation to both parties and the situation
@@edelweiss2.076 He was literally just talking about actual people in his life. He really doesn’t come off as a person who braggs about his associations I think he feels like he needs to explain a little since the jury doesn’t know about him like the public does.
If it was anyone who didn't have money, or celeb status(whether it be the bad kind) she probably would've been charged. I guess it just depends though.
Listening to emily’s commentary and Q&A during testimony is like having your classmate talking to you during a semi-boring lecture… very entertaining but sometimes you miss really interesting points because you’re distracted.
I totally agree. The contents of this video is very informative, and I enjoyed the parts that I could actually hear. But, Emily's commentary definitely takes away from it. I also noticed how impatient Emily was when someone didn't "get to the point" in a quick manner. Johnny Depp has 100 million dollars on the line. He has a hard time expressing himself. Patience is key.
@@Fierybutterflywings to be fair, court answers really do have to get directly to the point and Johnny does ramble but sometimes the commentary and Q&A goes over the actual answers
This wasn't Camile Vasquez questioning Depp, it was Jessica Meyers. It bothered me that the wrong name kept being named. You can always tell when it's Camille asking questions
I don't know if you can really understand how crazy you begin to feel when dealing with an abusive partner/family member unless you've experienced it. You will truly start to question all of your actions/memories trying to understand or contextualize abusive behavior bc recognizing it as irrational in the moment is surprisingly difficult to do. I don't know how you convey to a jury that doesn't have first-hand experience just how easy it can be to make someone distrust their own memories and sense of reality.
Exactly. That’s why I don’t think those who haven’t suffered abuse are unbiased. Or, avoiding the triple negative: That’s why I don’t think jurors who have suffered abuse are biased.
I know! When he talked about recording interactions because she was making him question his memory, I completely understood. That why I started recording interactions when I was in an abusive relationship. Abusers can make you question everything, down to who you are as a person.
And you must not forget, Johnny grew up in a house where her behavior was normal. So in a sick way, it would have been comfortable for him. So he was more subject to being suck into it than might the average person be and continue in pattern of acquiescence and retreat. Just as his sister said he did from their mother growing up.
@@donfronterhouse4759 It's the threshold. I've grown up with abuse as well and ended up in an abusive relationship for 4.5 years. But I have friends who never experienced parental/domestic abuse and would leave a partner if they so much as raised their voice at them.
“Neither side has made false accusations for financial gain” is not that same as “neither side has made false accusations” for any other possible reason.
Right, like you can have other motivations and goals. Maybe it wasn't about money, but about image and reputation building. Make yourself a victim that overcame great hardships and became a positive symbol or whatever.
The amount of gaslighting on Amber's side, all this belitteling "I didn't punch you, I hit you (...) don't be such a baby, grow up"... My god, disgusting. I can't. My heart breaks for him.
Ohhh yeah! I never wanted to believe what she said about Johnny but you never know so I kept my mouth shut & waited & watched. Then those audios finally dropped & I was on them SO FAST! & OMG! It was the audio Incredibly Average did & I was 😲😳🤔😮💨🤯😤🤬😡 in the 1st 10min! I was w\o words I "shit" you NOT! Just sat there COMPLETELY flabbergasted! I wasn't in a relationship w\her & EVEN I felt like WHAT?! NO! That's not .. wait . What? Stop trying to confuse me & make me believe I'm crazy & don't know reality!... I can't even IMAGINE how bad it was for Johnny! JESUS! She's a literal NUT CASE! DISGUSTING! PATHETIC! RIDICULOUS!
@@Amber-yq9ee I'm 💯 with you on this. I'm heartbroken for Johnny, for all he had to endure, all of this fucking ridicules... Noone would remain sane with Amber Heard around them.
It also supports Depp's prior comment on how Amber would fixate on a specific word like "monster" until she forced him to redefine it according to her perspective. "I didn't punch you I hit you." "Those things aren't related." Etc.
My brother used to punch me all the time as kids, and then tell me that shouldn’t hurt when I cried. So I know what it’s like to be told how I should react to someone else’s violence.
I have Borderline and relate to Ambers statement of him leaving to the bathroom etc triggered her abandonment fears and escalated the fight. I’ve been the bad person in the marriage, even thrown things and said very ugly things I deeply regret. I didn’t always know I was the problem and it took longer then Id like to see this and get the help I needed. But I was always deeply ashamed of my behavior even when I didn’t see myself as the instigator I knew how I reacted was wrong. It’s never to late to get help.
I admire how you admit your faults and how you are committed to changing them going forward. My mother has BPD, but she refuses to see her faults or the trauma she has caused others. I can see my mother's words and actions Heard's relationship with Depp. I understand Depp's feelings of being trapped and wanting to get away. I also know how manipulative my mother was, including blaming my father for things that never happened. I hope you continue to heal, because while BPD is painful for those around you, it is way more painful for the person with it. You deserve love and wonderful, secure, fulfilling relationships.
@@felixoupopote 😆I commend the above person for trying to get help- However BPD is just a form of Narcissism, a specific type “vulnerable ..and the behavior that comes along with that is brutal-Inherently they have zero insight, entitled, controlling, manipulative, secretive, constant need have their ego stroked ..EXHAUSTING..
I believe him. My daughter was diagnosed with BPD and watching her struggles trying to regulate emotions was unbearable. Her intimate relationships were tumultuous and even violent. I was so relieved when she finally decided to stay single and get help. She’s now 25 and with medications and lots of support she’s doing much better. I’m very concerned for Amber’s child.
I can’t believe her attorneys didn’t try to get her to make a deal or something. Who wants all this to come out? “You aren’t punched, you’re hit”???? That is some abuser language right there. I’m cringing listening.
I'm reserving some judgement until we hear her testimony. People like this are toxic- both of them, if a more emotionally stable person started dating either of them they'd be out as soon as they saw the crazy behavior. JD seems to have just retreated or left often. AH is more direct and confrontational. Both communication styles have to be modified if your with someome. She could have slowed down, but he needed to address issues that came up, not hide in separate hotel rooms and airplane bathrooms.
@@mtz6198 Abuse and violence can take a toll on rationality. Sure it’s easy to leave and easy to communicate. However, abuse puts you into a mental prison where you feel as if you can’t leave and strikes any power you have to speak up. If this wasn’t the case, courts could come to the verdict on every DV case that: both parties are bad. He or she should’ve left, the end. But they don’t because it is much more complicated and abuse mentally handicaps victims, it is important to acknowledge that. *On an anecdotal note abuse made me feel as if I would die in my situation and be stuck forever. Of course that isn’t the truth but your mind is so traumatised that you are clouded with nothing but pessimism and pain. So I understand JD and his hesitancy to leave AH.
I've watched all of it so far and have to say Johnny's effectively painted a very clear picture of Amber's true colors and she is a very dark individual. Hopefully the jury sees that for what it is & considers it for this case.
I think it’s so bizarre how AH had a gaggle of friends everywhere, all the time. I know she was much younger than him, but I can’t imagine at the age she was at the time, still wanting to have tons of friends over all the time, living with me, etc. At one point in his testimony, he mentioned high school-like behavior, and the element of having/needing/wanting buddies surrounding her always also feels very teenage-like.
That can be, but isn't always, something that is consistent with a borderline personality adaptation. It does look very strange if you've not seen it before. I've had multiple friends - diagnosed with BPD - who are like that. Extremely needy, and they have to feel loved. If they don't feel loved 24/7, it's absolutely terrifying because they feel they're about to be abandoned again. It's the same type of fear a baby feels when Mum/Dad leaves the room. For the baby the parent has literally stopped existing, because they haven't yet learned that an object can be out of sight and still exist. If caregivers are abusive or neglectful, the child might not develop this (psychologists call it object constancy), and you could imagine the brain might look a little different than if the caregivers had not been abusive. It's not just abuse that can cause this, nor is everyone with abusive parents going to have BPD, but it is something that can happen. We have a very very strong need to be attached to our caregivers. This is because if we were living in the wild, when our species was some type of pre-human creature, separation from caregivers could equal death. When Amber said to Johnny on the audio tape that she felt like she was going to die and that she felt like she was having a heart attack every day, that's probably accurate to how she felt. It's why her friends lost patience with her, iO in particular. It didn't matter how much support and love he tried to give her, it was never enough. Nothing could be enough. But that's one potential reason why having a gaggle of friends around her might make sense - to take the pressure off Johnny so that he didn't have to be her everything. Didn't work, but I can imagine somebody using that as a justification.
Growing up with a lot of verbal/psychologist abuse, so much of Johnny's coping methods ring true to me. There is something oddly safe in hiding in bathrooms, especially if you can lock the door. It's only walls, but it feels like sanctuary.
So I am not the only one wondering how many people have spent entirely too much time hiding in bathrooms seeking sanctuary! My ex asked me if I had a big screen TV hidden in there. It became a sad running joke with me and our kids.
I literally laughed out loud when Emily cocked her head to the side and said, “what do you guys think about Amber giving him that knife 🔪?” 🤣🤣🤣 A true psycho. And actually hilarious (knowing he’s alive and all).
Oh my gosh, I was in a crazy making relationship like this. It's horrible trying to have a conversation with the hope of "working things out" and constantly being gaslit! Ugh!!!
There was a settlement. Elaine Bredehoft put his financial in Sm exhibit a good while ago. Supposed to be confidential. Anyway, I can’t remember if it was $15 or 25 million. I don’t recall if it was specifically labeled with the firm’s name, but it was a settlement. (I should take notes as I lose details over time.).
I was looking for someone to mention the term crazy making. I totally agree. I was in something like this where I would be pushed (harassed, sleep deprived, screamed at and threatened) to a point where I would lose my composure and then this person would say “oh see how crazy you are” and often I would end up apologizing! So sick and so many people live like this.
One thing I noticed that I don’t think jury will. The lawyer showed this makeup thing, it’s a color corrector, as a makeup lover from 2014-16 you would never forget what you apparently carried for years with you constantly. The one they brought as evidence was not made until 2017 a full year after the divorce. You wouldn’t switch it out just for show nor, would you forget what you got over that many years. She brought in a piece of fake evidence and lied about it intentionally because the makeup pack did not exist during the time at all. I don’t trust a thing she’ll have to say when it comes based off that along.
I wouldn’t remember whether a colour corrector was the one I used in 2016 or 2017, or 2019 for that matter! You’d need a very good memory for that sort of detail.
@@Lollipop_Lexi Her lawyer was implying that she remembered exactly. The way she was holding it up almost made it seem like it was the exact one all those years. I know what blush/compact powder i wore for years so if she relied on a specific product to cover up abuse regularly i think she would remember too.
The compact she's holding was actually admitted as the exact physical evidence, which is listed publicly on one of the sites where the information released to the public is made available, so it would definitely be counterintuitive and counterproductive to her case to admit it as the actual evidence when its false....which the company that made the product, Milani, actually made a TikTok statement about this and verified that there was no way she could have used that particular compact since it wasn't released until December of 2017. A lot of her own evidence has become counterproductive to her defense and she has a history of violence against former partners and family, as well as verbal abuse of her former assistant of about 3 years and family members. The same ex-assistant has also brought to light that Amber had stolen her personal trauma story of SA to tell as her own in her Washington Post story, I believe.
I agree, however once she was away from her abuser she wouldn’t need the colour correcting palette she used to hide bruises. So how did she only mention a palette that was released after the relationship?
I think Johnny Depp is innocent. Everystep of the way he has come across as a kind, calm, and compassionate person. Where as Amber Heard has come across as an unstable liar.
agreed no one is perfect but i think he did the best he could in a bad situation hope he gets therapy before another relationship it helped my mom who was also a dv survivor and my step dad helped me take care of my mom until the day she died doubt she will seek therapy sadly most abusers don't work on themselves
Yeah. And he randomly visits children’s hospitals to give sick kids some cheer and hope. He seems like a stand up dude. This all sucks. Glad he got it televised so she couldn’t gaslight him anymore.
I'm watching this after her testimony to catch up on the trial. I thought they were both messed up before this trial started, but am now realizing she's very disturbed and needs professional help. Poor Johnny.
Yeah, I didn’t know if I could trust his testimony because he is after all a brilliant actor so I watched Amber first and now watching his side. Stark difference(( It all just sounds so much more believable.
@Adele X yall heard drugs and assune people are violent. Its shows people aren't that smart and can be easily swayed based on looks. She seemed like a liat from the jump.
I feel for Johnny. I grew up in a verbal and phyical abusive home and it definately changed how I react to things as an adult. I try to walk away when things get heated. Not because I don't want to work things out, but usually because I am trying to ward off a flashback. Hell, I would even send my kids to their rooms (when they got in trouble) until I calmed down so I could adress things rationally. One of my biggest fears was becoming my parents. Thank God, I didn't. I felt redeemed the day my father said that I did a great job raising my children and I should be proud of myself. I still get anxiety when I go see my parents because some scares don't fade, but they are wonderful Grandparents. Unfortuately my sister didn't fall far the tree.
You sound as though you’ve handled and processed it well. Especially getting compliments of your parenting. You e managed to stop another generation repeating what you endured. I truly hope you acknowledge just what a big accomplishment that is. Well done to you. I hope life as an adult is a happier one for you.
Your comment fits 90% with my experience. I feel you. My dad is very repentant and is really trying to make up for the past, but my sister pushed him to the brink of suicide just last year, because she tells him that anything and everything bad in her life is his fault even though for the last 15 years he's been nothing but supportive. she lives a very comfortable life but she's full of anger and envy and is very vindictive :(.
That audio said it all. He illustrates how he disengages and she becomes the agressor. She not only agrees but insists it is her right to behave that way and he is in the wrong for not engaging. There is absolutely no fear of him on her part. None. Victims of repeated DV do not act this way. Im also really curious as to why no one has noticed that her "injury" from the "phone throwing" incident shown in her photo had somehow moved more than an inch down her cheek when she emerged from the courtroom days later and there were no marks in the area depicted in her photo. Now how does that happen I wonder. Magic maybe?
Yeah that knife and the inscription doesn’t come across as a romantic gesture at all. It’s disturbing. In the audio files he comes across as trying to calmly address the situation and she comes across as aggressive
I believe that at that point, when they agreed to tape their arguments for their therapist (that's my understanding), Heard was being sincere. Depp was collecting evidence. 🤷🏼♀️
@@edelweiss2.076 as someone who was abused growing up by a narc mom who would gaslight me, it was essential for me to have evidence to use when she would try to tell me i made it up. i felt like i was losing my mind half the time and she was always trying to pick a fight with me and i could never win. it would normally end with me on the floor in tears, broken emotionally to the point i couldnt fight back. having recordings that i could play later saying “no you really did say this mom, you really did say these things” was important for me. it helped me get a better hold on reality, and it geve me the strength to fight back. im not saying this is exactly the same situation but its eerily similar
@@edelweiss2.076 I don't think Johnny was trying to "collect evidence", I think he was trying to to stay sane, because she as an abuser would gaslight him.
Legit hurts me and turns my stomach because I've had these same conversations with an ex who hit me and gaslit me a lot. He deserves so much love and I hope he wins this case ❤️ my heart breaks for him
Everyone says he seems to be protecting Amber still. Or trying not to make her mad. I don’t think that it; I think he’s just a gentleman. And I think that despite being angry he just doesn’t want to speak that poorly over someone he claims to have once loved.

I only just discovered you, as a result of the Depp trial but you got me hooked all over again, so I'm watching them with you this time. So much more enjoyable! Please keep doing what you're doing :)
I went through a nasty bff fallout and even years later when I found screenshots of the old texts when we were fighting, sent me into a panic attack. I can imagine how triggering hearing these audio clips is for JD. She’s a terrible person.
Why would someone in an abusive relationship, who claims she feared for her life on many occasions, give her abuser a weapon (the knife), & then to engrave it in the way that she did as if it was endearing. That was just creepy AF & seemed to me more of a power move. However, there may be more context around the gift of the knife that explains her choice of that.
She’s so immature… I know im not the only one sitting here feeling so SEEN right now. As soon as she started arguing, my spine went absolutely stiff. It was a physical reaction to the tone of her voice and the things she was saying… I haven’t been in a situation like that for over 15 years but if you’ve ever been in a “relationship” like this, you don’t ever forget it. Anyone who is going thru this right now, you’re not alone! This can happen to ANYONE. Don’t forget who you are.
@@lisahenshall3053 same girl, same when they dropped him years ago - i proudly commented on their instagram posts how they’re utter trash for making that decision & since then have sworn them off
I honestly think he didn't do a good job as Grindelwald but that's my personal taste since he does caricatures of his characters and I like the low key british style more. I still think it was awfully unfair that he got dropped because of these allegations
I have so many emotions listening to this. The audio recordings absolutely disgust me listening to her mocking a grown man calling him a baby and talking technicalities on how her hand was when she hit him. And the listening to him talking about his breaking point when he said he was leaving after her birthday party and her just continuing to hit him just makes me so sad and heartbroken for him. But also him getting sassy about the hearsay stuff had me cracking up.
When she called him a baby, I found myself agreeing. He's a 60 yr old testifying, with hyperbole & melodrama, that she is responsible for taking "everything" from him. Apparently, he thinks his alleged addictions & poor behavior on set have nothing to do with his career troubles. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ He appears to refuse to take responsibility for his own personal shortcomings. He's 5 yrs down the pipe from his divorce & still trying to litigate with Heard. Grow up, dude.🙄
@@edelweiss2.076 well, I think he wants his life back. As soon as she accused him, even without any evidence, he immediately and mysteriously got blacklisted by Hollywood. I'm the opposite of you. I think this is important because it could very well be geound breaking for DV towards males.
@@edelweiss2.076 You’re referring to the behavior you disagree with that he has done since which is not part of this discussion. Whereas she was referring to him being upset that she had repeatedly hit him. Those are separate topics.
On that joint statement, it specified "for financial gain", which I don't believe was her motive. I hope his counsel picks up on that. Also, not only did that op-ed imply it was him, but she never made any statement(s) to the contrary when it was assumed to mean him, in addition to her feeding into the feeding frenzy over it.
Me too his poor soul , I hope he gets Justice and I hope Hollywood will cancel her for lying about such a horrendous act , this poor guy has been abused his whole life until he could leave , then marries someone like his mom . Gets accused of being an abuser while actually being the one abused is just mentally n physically damaging could u imagine having to pay ur abuser 7 million dollars ! That is absurd she cuts his finger off but he owes her I’m dumbfounded
Yesterday I watched another group of Lawyers live stream the trial, and kept thinking I wish their commentary was less. Then I find you girl, keeping It real with solid information and good feedback. Keep it up! I’m watching every day!
After a year, I don’t remember hearing this testimony this way. I didn’t ever hear that Johnny was in the shower. In a totally vulnerable position. She’s a hateful, abusive bully.
Same! I didn't remember that he was in the shower. This case eerily reminds me of Jodi Arias'. Gives me chills to think this might have ended the same way if Johnny didn't have so many people around him.
But isn't saying "No false allegations were made for financial gain" different from 'No false allegations were made" ? To me, it seems to be two completely different statements...It's like me saying "I did not make a pie for financial gain"...doesn't mean I didn't make the pie. I just didn't make the pie with the objective of selling it...
I’ve had a broken nose before, not unlike this situation. Her nose woulda been pouring in that instant, not like a nosebleed where the tissue would have caught all the blood
Same. From being driven to the emergency room, to sitting in the waiting area, my nose was POURING out blood. I had to grab a new tissue what felt like every minute.
I know his way of speaking may test some patience but he seems absolutely consistent. Yes, I know Johnny Depp is an actor but this all seems very real, raw, and honest. It cannot be easy to sit up there and air dirty laundry. This is all just really sad. Even if he does not win in court, I hope in the court of public opinion that he is believed.
Depp is loving it, or he wouldn't have brought this case against her. Everything he's saying has likely been well scripted & practiced. I say that only because when he forgot his lines on direct, his lawyers prompted him.
I'm honestly starting to believe that was his whole point just by his reactions & how he laughs when her lawyer tries to get him to react negativily he knows by how his life has been destroyed on her lies the court of public opinion is most important.
Hello, person who broke their nose here. In case no one has seen a broken nose in real life, it bleeds a tonne, swells, bruises, my eyes swelled up and I had 2 black eyes for about a month and after it has healed there was a noticeable bump in the bridge of my nose that wasn’t there before. There is not a single chance in hell that Heard had her nose broken then went on the James Corden show and looked absolutely the same
Are they going to play the part of the audio where Johnny and Amber are talking about the fate of their relationship and Johnny is saying in no uncertain terms: "THERE CAN BE NO PHYSICAL VIOLENCE." And she replies: "I can't promise you I won't get physical again. God, I sometimes get so made, I lose it." I have my doubt about Johnny's lawyers... The audios makes it very clear what occurred in the relationship. Johnny was physically abused. There is zero indication from Amber...in those lengthy discussions about the fighting...that there was ANY physical violence from Johnny. Then they come to an agreement that Johnny will be allowed to leave the room once things escalate, but only for a very specific period of time... She says "You have to realize, in that kind of situation, a few minutes is fine, but then after a certain point...it becomes way worse...I become way harder to reason...to rationalize with...I become.... "
Very curious about this! I’m behind and just now catching up on these proceedings. Do you know if this ended up coming up at all? Because that’s pretty damning if so!
I love Johnnys testimony. The only thing that disappointed me was his attorney didnt ask him about the time Amber showed up in his hotel in San Francisco during the TRO but Johnny did make a small reference to her wanting him to break the order during one of the questions.
I came into this thinking Depp was in the wrong. I hadn’t really followed the case except seeing the headlines when it happened. But damn for audio recordings are pretty bad for her
Yeah initially I saw her as a victim, simply due to those damn articles. The past few years have revealed how easy it is to spin people like Johnny into some kind of monster, I’m so glad he’s fighting to get the truth out because it’s clear she has some ugly demons within her.
Lemme comment on this audio… If he was abusing her, I promise she couldn’t get out one sassy word, or taunting phrase before he would hit her in the mouth. That’s how you know she’s the abuser. That right there. And the punching audio.
Men & women need to stand together in solidarity against mental & physical abuse. It’s frightening to listen to what a monster this woman is. I can’t imagine anyone having to live like this. Examples like this will educate people about truth & relationships. Johnny is incredibly courageous displaying this horror. He’s trusting we will see the truth & I believe people are. I pray he is completely exonerated!
Victims typically won’t look directly at their abuser. And Amber Heard has been looking straight at him since he’s been on the stand, as well as the jury and around her, but particularly at him. While Johnny Depp didn’t even glance her way especially when she was on the stand.
The camera cutting to Amber and Emily saying, “oh that’s a face,” is everything. Side note - I am amongst the club of those who have broken their nose…well, technically fractured. I took a longboard to the face during surf rescue class. My nose did not bleed thankfully but there was a definite crunch sound and it swelled. The fact that it didn’t bleed and that my friends were down playing it is the only reason I questioned if it was broken. But like Emily said, if you’ve broken your nose, you know…or you at the very least know something is wrong.
I really can’t wait for tomorrow to see how irritated I get with Amber’s team. I hate the narrative they are going for. I kind of don’t really like their styles of approach either. What I really can’t wait for is Amber’s testimony.
An article i was reading kept calling Johnny "sunglasses wearing Depp" and like f them. I had an injury that resulted in me now having a lot of light sensitivity and you know what? Computers are hard to look at now.. the lights at work really effect me and sometimes I opt to wear sunglasses and a baseball cap to block the light
As someone who was told by my optician that the medicines I take cause light sensitivity I agree. It doesn’t matter if it’s sunny or cloudy, I have to constantly squint unless I wear sunglasses and it sucks because sometimes not even that helps enough.
The trial between Misheard and Mr Death is the only one I've found this fascinating (apart from Rittenhouse). My heart is with Johnny, who I have never cared about at all, but he comes off more authentic in this than I ever thought possible.
I haven't been able to keep up due to work but watching bits of this, Johnny seems so triggered here. I feel for him so much. And no pain killers dueing his injury as well as an MRSA infection?? Damn. That's next level rough. I hope he comes out of this on top; I need more Captain Jack Sparrow in my life.
Rewatching some coverage because I really enjoyed listening the long streams during my days. I have to say, if I were Amber & all of this was true, it would be almost impossible for me to compose myself. Im a survivor of horrific abuse and I have to sit there & listen to all of these people discount my stories?? No I’d lose it. Which is why Johnny’s snark makes sense to me. If I’m an abuse survivor, finally able to tell my story after all these years, I’m gonna be like REALLY BITCH? HEARSAY? I HAD A CIGARETTE PUT OUT ON MY FACE…
Watching on replay 2:16:02, I feel so much for him, I can see AH thinking “This is what you get, because you didn’t die for me like I wanted you too. So I am going to make your life a living hell!” It’s hard to fathom people are truly like her. I feel so sad
She implicated him in the op Ed by timing. That's all it takes to ruin his reputation and career. Further he sent payment directly to the charities to expose her as a liar. The tax break was simply a bonus.
I'm not sure how he can prove that the op-ed was about HIM, when he was never mentioned by name. He reminds me of that Carly Simon song, "You're So Vain".
@ Edel Weiss 2.0 this didn’t age well since Heard said in testimony “that’s why I wrote the op Ed about Johnny.” Or when she reiterated “the op Ed wasn’t just about Johnny.” Eat your crow.
I never watched this part of the cross. I think Depp is brilliant. He’s a lot smarter than Rottenborn. He immediately caught him on the first question and then the sassiness kept Rottenborn on his toes to dodge Depps bullets 😂 I think Depp keeps his cool and it’s bothering Rottenborn.
I was up the entire night watching this. Thanks so much Emily for your input and knowledge. Just one thing, he actually pronounces Australia correctly, that was lovely to hear. This is hard to watch but coming in blind I see Johnny as the truth teller 💜💜
The need for fight is abusive behavior. It’s narcissistic feeding of their victim. They need the fight like air. They can’t survive without seeing the other person suffer.
I’m watching this over. When Johnny mentioned Amber saying “you broke my nose Johnny!” A good follow up question would be “Did she receive medical treatment for her broken nose?”
You need to take a much closer look at the online version of her op-ed and the one done in print by WP. In that particular paragraph that her lawyer pointed out to Johnny is where there is a real huge difference in there between the two op-eds. Seriously, you NEED to compare them and you'll see why Johnny was adamant that the printed one isn't the one he saw and read. Very distinct differences.
Yes, but honestly if you're at the point where you feel the need to record arguments, it's done. I think they are both disfuntional and she has a more confrontational style but both stayed in a relationship that was clearly doomed from the beginning. They both had ample resources to leave. This wasn't the type of of DV relationship where someone is "trapped" by lack of money, children etc. At some point you're responsible for yourself and he seems a little too woe is me for a grown man who was twice (at least!) the age of his trainreck partner. His testimony was so wandering and slow I watch on 1.25 or 1.50 speed. I can't imagine having a normal day to day type of disagreement with him. I know someone like him, he can talk about absolutely nothing important for an hour when asked one or two questions. She was the "alpha" in some ways but that happens when your partner retreats and avoids any confrontation. They both need to move on & will be better off alone or with a partner more similar to themselves.
@@mtz6198 Gonna remember in the future that if I'm boring I could get battered and if I try and get away then I deserved it. Abuse can happen to any adult by another adult regardless of 18+ age.
@@mtz6198 I understand the perspective that they should have ended it sooner due to their personality differences, and he had the power to leave, but that doesn't excuse her behavior. Obviously, he doesn't have the personality to handle this kind of person/conflict--probably partly due to his family history. That doesn't mean he's responsible or deserved any of it. They were seeing a counselor. He tried to speak up for himself. 🤷 It also seems that she changed from perfect to violent after they had already been together for a while. It's not as simple or as easy as "just leave" sounds--espcially for someone like him with traumatic emotional baggage coupled with an introverted personality.
Not a lawyer…. But I find it worth noting, that the joint statement says “neither party made false statements FOR the purpose of financial gain”. NOT- neither party made false accusations peridot. Huge difference between those two for interpretations sake. In my lament opinion 🤷🏽♀️
@@dsoule4902 ha! Thanks! I’ve seen other comments on this channel and others discussing this but I read between the lines and it reads different to me I guess. I heard it as acknowledgement that false statements INDEED were made although not FOR financial gain.. rather than refuting that false statements were made at all. So if I were JDs lawyer on AH cross I would be asking if not for financial gain then WHY? It’s extremely odd wording for a joint statement issuance and my only conclusion is that it’s intent was not committing perjury and the “neither party” part is a total miss for me as why on earth would JD need to make a false statement against Amber in hopes of financial gain? The purpose of phrasing that way has to solely be to loop him so any claims of false statements weren’t only attached to Amber.
Amber had an awful lot of friends around her, taking trips with friends, parties with friends, dinner with friends.. In an abusive/jealous relationship like she claims, the abuser isolates you from friends & family and you don’t even want to see them anymore just to prevent a fight.
Traditionally, the gift of a knife is VERY bad luck, symbolic of breaking a relationship. To add the ominous “until death” says to me that she considered the only “out” for him would be death. I would be terrified to receive that, and I would 100% be terrified for any friend of mine who received it from a “romantic” partner.
I wanted to watch Depp's testimony because I had missed it before. I only started watching when she began to testify. So I started here because I had found you during her testimony and Truly Enjoyed your commentary. But your talking over his testimony is very often & loud. So I went to Sky & watched these days there. I want to say thank you for listening to viewers, you did. During her portion you were more energetic Thankfully and what you added was so important & informative! But you let us listen & hear. You moved the questions to you up so we could read the CC. You grew because you listened And I thank You so much for being open to us. Your Smarts are a welcome joy. You're the Best as I told my family, I think we all passed your channel to our friends & family. Thank You Ma'am.
If Jerry Judge was still alive, I'd bet he would give a powerful testimony
When he said in the audio "Don't tell me what it feels like to be punched" you can hear the hurt and anguish in his voice. Heartbreaking 💔💔
Now that Amber has testified as well, I think it’s very telling that Johnny demonstrates being hit by how he reacted, cowering, and Amber demonstrates being hit by showing the physical motion of hitting someone.
Agreed
Great point. Very observant!
Excellent point
Well said!
If she's so good with make-up with her fancy classes and all, who's to say she didn't create these bruises on her own face?
As a survivor of DV, I would have been absolutely terrified saying the things Amber said. I used to hide in the bathroom too, just to get away from the constant anxiety of being in an abusive relationship and to put a physical barrier between him and myself. It makes me sick she tried to spin this in her favor.
I also think she would have been terrified to gift him a giant knife......
@@TheEmilyDBaker terrified is an understatement, it’s twisted! Anything in my abusers hands could have been a weapon, why give him an engraved knife!?!?! That says until death as well….. nope nope nopity nope!
@@TheEmilyDBaker Also, thank you for your wonderful commentary and perspective, helping us regular folk understand all the legal jargon 💕
Yeah, they should get to the point of Amber not donating a dime to any Domestic Violence Agency. That says it all.
I understand that people in difficult situations often don’t make choices that seem the most logical to an outside observer…but Nothing about the things she said and did ring true to her primarily being the victim. The lies are so troubling.
As someone who is a survivor of an abusive relationship, I can relate to why he doesn't want to destroy her in his testimony. Abuse is complicated. One part of you remembers how you used to love them and somewhat want to protect them. Another part of you feels embarrassed for allowing yourself to be treated so horribly. You're afraid of judgment from others or that they won't believe you.
So true.
Its also probably a kind heart.....and yes if we adopt a pet, and they turn out troublesome, we still have to stay kind. I think all he has done, is for her to get the help she needs. Enough BS. This young lady, has to be in good care. He probably will pay for it. He does not need money. He will continue being a fabulous actor. No nonsense, can destroy a consistent soul.
Exactly. And that's how I'm for sure she was not abused by him what so ever she took the stand and IMMEDIATELY started taking digs at him and bashing him. You don't do that when your a survivor of abuse.
This. And, after a certain point you don’t want to hang onto the anger and hurt so you tell the raw truth in a - how he’s doing it - factual tone more than an emotional one.
God knows
“I didn’t punch you, I hit you” sounds like every abuser I’ve ever known. Not a victim. Shameful. Disgusting.
I’m an RN AND had my right thumb traumatically amputated in my 20’s. I will say that when you have a severing of a digit, the hand has more nerves and vessels than any other part of the human body (it is used for tactile feedback). The idea of not having opiates for this injury is unthinkable. Even with Vicodin, I went into shock the next day from the intense pain. Also you have nerve feedback from an amputation in the form of phantom pain which is excruciating. But add to this any infection- much less a life and limb threatening MRSA infection that can spread to the blood and kill a person- having reconstruction surgery and a pin makes the pain even worse and you have difficulty even moving or lowering the hand. And God forbid if someone bumps your vulnerable arm with the injury! It is so very painful that the person with this injury would be guarding their hand involuntarily without even thinking about it. With hand surgery of this type there is no hard “cast” like Amber claims..There is a very soft and padded bandage to protect the wound and a cast could actually cause a serious problem such as compression syndrome. This is nothing like a broken bone- pins need to be cleaned daily and the wound needs to be visually assessed weekly. So her claim that he had a cast is a flat out lie. Never is there a cast after microsurgery of the hand for amputation reconstruction and pins, etc.
Just my experience as a nurse and a patient.
So sorry but thank you for the insight!
Wow. I found myself instinctively curling my fingers up into a fist as if to protect them, while reading your post. I am so sorry you went through such an experience and I have even more empathy for JD as well as my father who crushed his finger in an 80 ton press many years ago. They were able to save it and I already imagined it was painful but hearing about the nerves just made me realize it must of been so much worse. Thank you for your insight on all this.
"That's hearsay I presume. I'm learning." LOVE his sassy sense of humour.
I know right he's catching on fast
One thing I've noticed through this trial is that JD demonstrated the fights and/or situations as the abused and AH spoke and demonstrated things as the abuser.
Amber saying "I didn't punch you, I hit you!" is so disgusting, as if that makes anything better 🤦♀️
When my boys where little they would say, “I didn’t kick him, I touched him with my foot.” Ridiculous.
I know, that sounds like such an abuser thing to say. I bet there’s way more than will come out. Poor guy.
"If you didn't struggle it wouldn't hurt" -- any abuser on any given day
@@julieh.9826 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Unpopular opinion but most DV cases have some mutual participation. We've only heard from him at this point, I am curious to hear her testimony. The drugs, the control issues, the age difference, etc - that marriage was going to fail.
The moment he decided their fights needed to be recorded- and she went with it too- that's a big, flashing red light your relationship is basically done. I can't imagine staying if I fought with someone and one or both of us felt we needed to tape it. Insane
My heart breaks for Johnny I believe he’s a huge victim of domestic violence with that being said I love his attitude about “ hear say” that cracked me up. It was like a glimpse of his personality amidst all this darkness and him having to recount terrible incident’s he’s been in with Ms.Heard.
I love his dry sense of humor. Wasn't a huge fan of his (not anti, just indifferent) before all this, but between how this trial has humanized him (and how sad this makes me for him), I'm a fan now.
Same!
Agreed
Dude is battling addiction, his mother is dying, he has been robbed of 100s of millions and his wife is shitting the bed and heading out to coachella.

Rich people problems? Domestic violence and addiction isn’t rich people’s problems. These things effect everyone.
@@FukaiKokoro i think this person was being sarcastic
Out of all the scrolling comments, YOURS made my day 😂
He comes off so genuine, especially when compared to her. Watching this after her testimony really highlights differences between their personalities
Exactly why I am here
Oh my gosh me too. Haha. It is so vastly different.
Omg same I wanted to rewatch his direct and they are so different in their deliveries
Same reason I’m here. Wow, her testimony was incredibly difficult and cringy to watch 🫣
Agree. He wasn't overly dramatic. Just factually about what happened.
I feel like he called her bluff and it totally backfired on her. Now that he fought back everyone hears the actual details of their horrendous marriage and can form their own opinion instead of a “he said she said” scenario
She’s absolutely thought none of this would backfire on her because she’s that much of a narcissist
I feel the same. especially when the audio recordings also support his story and no where close to hers
I’m glad they didn’t interrupt and narrow him down. It’s important that he gets to tell his story with his words the way he needs to. Win or lose I do believe his team know the importance of him getting to speak all of his words.
I just wish he would stop the name dropping. It's so annoying.
@@edelweiss2.076 they are specifically asking him several times to name drop. It gives credibility, and they are mostly future witnesses so context to their relation to both parties and the situation

@@janedoeei think he has to press charges for that.
Listening to emily’s commentary and Q&A during testimony is like having your classmate talking to you during a semi-boring lecture… very entertaining but sometimes you miss really interesting points because you’re distracted.
Agree
I totally agree. The contents of this video is very informative, and I enjoyed the parts that I could actually hear. But, Emily's commentary definitely takes away from it. I also noticed how impatient Emily was when someone didn't "get to the point" in a quick manner. Johnny Depp has 100 million dollars on the line. He has a hard time expressing himself. Patience is key.
@@Fierybutterflywings to be fair, court answers really do have to get directly to the point and Johnny does ramble but sometimes the commentary and Q&A goes over the actual answers
Most of us have already heard this testimony 😉. If I hadn’t seen it 5 times I’d be utterly annoyed also
I highly recommend listening to the testimonies once normally then with her commentary! It’s helped me a bunch retaining everything
This wasn't Camile Vasquez questioning Depp, it was Jessica Meyers. It bothered me that the wrong name kept being named. You can always tell when it's Camille asking questions
I don't know if you can really understand how crazy you begin to feel when dealing with an abusive partner/family member unless you've experienced it. You will truly start to question all of your actions/memories trying to understand or contextualize abusive behavior bc recognizing it as irrational in the moment is surprisingly difficult to do.
I don't know how you convey to a jury that doesn't have first-hand experience just how easy it can be to make someone distrust their own memories and sense of reality.
Exactly. That’s why I don’t think those who haven’t suffered abuse are unbiased.
Or, avoiding the triple negative:
That’s why I don’t think jurors who have suffered abuse are biased.
Yeeepp
I know! When he talked about recording interactions because she was making him question his memory, I completely understood. That why I started recording interactions when I was in an abusive relationship. Abusers can make you question everything, down to who you are as a person.
And you must not forget, Johnny grew up in a house where her behavior was normal. So in a sick way, it would have been comfortable for him. So he was more subject to being suck into it than might the average person be and continue in pattern of acquiescence and retreat. Just as his sister said he did from their mother growing up.
@@donfronterhouse4759 It's the threshold. I've grown up with abuse as well and ended up in an abusive relationship for 4.5 years. But I have friends who never experienced parental/domestic abuse and would leave a partner if they so much as raised their voice at them.
“Neither side has made false accusations for financial gain” is not that same as “neither side has made false accusations” for any other possible reason.
And let's not forget that Amber said she planned to donate all $7million to charity.
Right, like you can have other motivations and goals. Maybe it wasn't about money, but about image and reputation building. Make yourself a victim that overcame great hardships and became a positive symbol or whatever.
....and Johnny likes to be literal with words.
My thoughts exactly. Those seems like three important words on the end there.

It also supports Depp's prior comment on how Amber would fixate on a specific word like "monster" until she forced him to redefine it according to her perspective. "I didn't punch you I hit you." "Those things aren't related." Etc.
My brother used to punch me all the time as kids, and then tell me that shouldn’t hurt when I cried. So I know what it’s like to be told how I should react to someone else’s violence.
@@annt7384 I'm so sorry that happened to you, Ann :( Family can be the worst, unfortunately.
I have Borderline and relate to Ambers statement of him leaving to the bathroom etc triggered her abandonment fears and escalated the fight. I’ve been the bad person in the marriage, even thrown things and said very ugly things I deeply regret.
I didn’t always know I was the problem and it took longer then Id like to see this and get the help I needed. But I was always deeply ashamed of my behavior even when I didn’t see myself as the instigator I knew how I reacted was wrong. It’s never to late to get help.
I admire how you admit your faults and how you are committed to changing them going forward. My mother has BPD, but she refuses to see her faults or the trauma she has caused others. I can see my mother's words and actions Heard's relationship with Depp. I understand Depp's feelings of being trapped and wanting to get away. I also know how manipulative my mother was, including blaming my father for things that never happened.
I hope you continue to heal, because while BPD is painful for those around you, it is way more painful for the person with it. You deserve love and wonderful, secure, fulfilling relationships.
Ty for sharing. Its so hopeful to hear people can decide to chsnge and succeed.
I hope you've learned that other people aren't just rags for your emotions.
You’ve made progress as has someone very close to me
It’s hard work
@@felixoupopote 😆I commend the above person for trying to get help- However BPD is just a form of Narcissism, a specific type “vulnerable ..and the behavior that comes along with that is brutal-Inherently they have zero insight, entitled, controlling, manipulative, secretive, constant need have their ego stroked ..EXHAUSTING..
😂😂 “maybe they’re hearsay papers.” Ugh I love Johnny.
I believe him. My daughter was diagnosed with BPD and watching her struggles trying to regulate emotions was unbearable. Her intimate relationships were tumultuous and even violent. I was so relieved when she finally decided to stay single and get help. She’s now 25 and with medications and lots of support she’s doing much better. I’m very concerned for Amber’s child.
I can’t believe her attorneys didn’t try to get her to make a deal or something. Who wants all this to come out? “You aren’t punched, you’re hit”???? That is some abuser language right there. I’m cringing listening.
I'm reserving some judgement until we hear her testimony. People like this are toxic- both of them, if a more emotionally stable person started dating either of them they'd be out as soon as they saw the crazy behavior.
JD seems to have just retreated or left often. AH is more direct and confrontational. Both communication styles have to be modified if your with someome. She could have slowed down, but he needed to address issues that came up, not hide in separate hotel rooms and airplane bathrooms.
@@mtz6198 Abuse and violence can take a toll on rationality. Sure it’s easy to leave and easy to communicate. However, abuse puts you into a mental prison where you feel as if you can’t leave and strikes any power you have to speak up. If this wasn’t the case, courts could come to the verdict on every DV case that: both parties are bad. He or she should’ve left, the end. But they don’t because it is much more complicated and abuse mentally handicaps victims, it is important to acknowledge that.
*On an anecdotal note abuse made me feel as if I would die in my situation and be stuck forever. Of course that isn’t the truth but your mind is so traumatised that you are clouded with nothing but pessimism and pain. So I understand JD and his hesitancy to leave AH.
@@zerin5515 great answer
The audio is already out, it has been for a while (2 years I think). You can find it online.
Because she won the case in UK. She thought that will be walk in the park maybe?
I've watched all of it so far and have to say Johnny's effectively painted a very clear picture of Amber's true colors and she is a very dark individual. Hopefully the jury sees that for what it is & considers it for this case.
I think it’s so bizarre how AH had a gaggle of friends everywhere, all the time. I know she was much younger than him, but I can’t imagine at the age she was at the time, still wanting to have tons of friends over all the time, living with me, etc. At one point in his testimony, he mentioned high school-like behavior, and the element of having/needing/wanting buddies surrounding her always also feels very teenage-like.
Not just teenage like but MEAN GIRL like
That can be, but isn't always, something that is consistent with a borderline personality adaptation. It does look very strange if you've not seen it before.
I've had multiple friends - diagnosed with BPD - who are like that. Extremely needy, and they have to feel loved. If they don't feel loved 24/7, it's absolutely terrifying because they feel they're about to be abandoned again.
It's the same type of fear a baby feels when Mum/Dad leaves the room. For the baby the parent has literally stopped existing, because they haven't yet learned that an object can be out of sight and still exist. If caregivers are abusive or neglectful, the child might not develop this (psychologists call it object constancy), and you could imagine the brain might look a little different than if the caregivers had not been abusive.
It's not just abuse that can cause this, nor is everyone with abusive parents going to have BPD, but it is something that can happen. We have a very very strong need to be attached to our caregivers. This is because if we were living in the wild, when our species was some type of pre-human creature, separation from caregivers could equal death.
When Amber said to Johnny on the audio tape that she felt like she was going to die and that she felt like she was having a heart attack every day, that's probably accurate to how she felt.
It's why her friends lost patience with her, iO in particular. It didn't matter how much support and love he tried to give her, it was never enough. Nothing could be enough. But that's one potential reason why having a gaggle of friends around her might make sense - to take the pressure off Johnny so that he didn't have to be her everything. Didn't work, but I can imagine somebody using that as a justification.
What’s interesting listening to the recording is he speaks exactly the same as he is when he is testifying.
Growing up with a lot of verbal/psychologist abuse, so much of Johnny's coping methods ring true to me. There is something oddly safe in hiding in bathrooms, especially if you can lock the door. It's only walls, but it feels like sanctuary.
So I am not the only one wondering how many people have spent entirely too much time hiding in bathrooms seeking sanctuary! My ex asked me if I had a big screen TV hidden in there. It became a sad running joke with me and our kids.

I was looking for someone to mention the term crazy making. I totally agree.

So sick and so many people live like this.
One thing I noticed that I don’t think jury will. The lawyer showed this makeup thing, it’s a color corrector, as a makeup lover from 2014-16 you would never forget what you apparently carried for years with you constantly. The one they brought as evidence was not made until 2017 a full year after the divorce. You wouldn’t switch it out just for show nor, would you forget what you got over that many years. She brought in a piece of fake evidence and lied about it intentionally because the makeup pack did not exist during the time at all. I don’t trust a thing she’ll have to say when it comes based off that along.
I wouldn’t remember whether a colour corrector was the one I used in 2016 or 2017, or 2019 for that matter! You’d need a very good memory for that sort of detail.
@@Lollipop_Lexi Her lawyer was implying that she remembered exactly. The way she was holding it up almost made it seem like it was the exact one all those years. I know what blush/compact powder i wore for years so if she relied on a specific product to cover up abuse regularly i think she would remember too.
She brought a lot of fake evidence
The compact she's holding was actually admitted as the exact physical evidence, which is listed publicly on one of the sites where the information released to the public is made available, so it would definitely be counterintuitive and counterproductive to her case to admit it as the actual evidence when its false....which the company that made the product, Milani, actually made a TikTok statement about this and verified that there was no way she could have used that particular compact since it wasn't released until December of 2017. A lot of her own evidence has become counterproductive to her defense and she has a history of violence against former partners and family, as well as verbal abuse of her former assistant of about 3 years and family members. The same ex-assistant has also brought to light that Amber had stolen her personal trauma story of SA to tell as her own in her Washington Post story, I believe.
I agree, however once she was away from her abuser she wouldn’t need the colour correcting palette she used to hide bruises. So how did she only mention a palette that was released after the relationship?
“October is two months before December, that is correct.” Bahahaha! You have to admire his sense of humor during a time like this.
I think Johnny Depp is innocent. Everystep of the way he has come across as a kind, calm, and compassionate person. Where as Amber Heard has come across as an unstable liar.
agreed no one is perfect but i think he did the best he could in a bad situation hope he gets therapy before another relationship it helped my mom who was also a dv survivor and my step dad helped me take care of my mom until the day she died doubt she will seek therapy sadly most abusers don't work on themselves
Yeah. And he randomly visits children’s hospitals to give sick kids some cheer and hope. He seems like a stand up dude. This all sucks. Glad he got it televised so she couldn’t gaslight him anymore.
I'm watching this after her testimony to catch up on the trial. I thought they were both messed up before this trial started, but am now realizing she's very disturbed and needs professional help. Poor Johnny.
Yeah, I didn’t know if I could trust his testimony because he is after all a brilliant actor so I watched Amber first and now watching his side. Stark difference(( It all just sounds so much more believable.
Just now? Glad you can finally see. Amber and her bum crew gave liar from the gate.
@Adele X yall heard drugs and assune people are violent. Its shows people aren't that smart and can be easily swayed based on looks. She seemed like a liat from the jump.
I feel for Johnny. I grew up in a verbal and phyical abusive home and it definately changed how I react to things as an adult. I try to walk away when things get heated. Not because I don't want to work things out, but usually because I am trying to ward off a flashback. Hell, I would even send my kids to their rooms (when they got in trouble) until I calmed down so I could adress things rationally. One of my biggest fears was becoming my parents. Thank God, I didn't. I felt redeemed the day my father said that I did a great job raising my children and I should be proud of myself. I still get anxiety when I go see my parents because some scares don't fade, but they are wonderful Grandparents. Unfortuately my sister didn't fall far the tree.
You sound as though you’ve handled and processed it well. Especially getting compliments of your parenting. You e managed to stop another generation repeating what you endured. I truly hope you acknowledge just what a big accomplishment that is. Well done to you. I hope life as an adult is a happier one for you.
Your comment fits 90% with my experience. I feel you. My dad is very repentant and is really trying to make up for the past, but my sister pushed him to the brink of suicide just last year, because she tells him that anything and everything bad in her life is his fault even though for the last 15 years he's been nothing but supportive. she lives a very comfortable life but she's full of anger and envy and is very vindictive :(.
That audio said it all. He illustrates how he disengages and she becomes the agressor. She not only agrees but insists it is her right to behave that way and he is in the wrong for not engaging. There is absolutely no fear of him on her part. None. Victims of repeated DV do not act this way.
Im also really curious as to why no one has noticed that her "injury" from the "phone throwing" incident shown in her photo had somehow moved more than an inch down her cheek when she emerged from the courtroom days later and there were no marks in the area depicted in her photo. Now how does that happen I wonder. Magic maybe?
Magical make up.
Yeah that knife and the inscription doesn’t come across as a romantic gesture at all. It’s disturbing. In the audio files he comes across as trying to calmly address the situation and she comes across as aggressive
It’s VERY a disturbing, not unlike a bunny boiling in a pot…
I believe that at that point, when they agreed to tape their arguments for their therapist (that's my understanding), Heard was being sincere. Depp was collecting evidence. 🤷🏼♀️
@@edelweiss2.076 as someone who was abused growing up by a narc mom who would gaslight me, it was essential for me to have evidence to use when she would try to tell me i made it up. i felt like i was losing my mind half the time and she was always trying to pick a fight with me and i could never win. it would normally end with me on the floor in tears, broken emotionally to the point i couldnt fight back. having recordings that i could play later saying “no you really did say this mom, you really did say these things” was important for me. it helped me get a better hold on reality, and it geve me the strength to fight back. im not saying this is exactly the same situation but its eerily similar
@@edelweiss2.076 I don't think Johnny was trying to "collect evidence", I think he was trying to to stay sane, because she as an abuser would gaslight him.

Everyone says he seems to be protecting Amber still. Or trying not to make her mad. I don’t think that it; I think he’s just a gentleman. And I think that despite being angry he just doesn’t want to speak that poorly over someone he claims to have once loved.
All that and he seems embarrased
Also, he married a woman so much younger than him, most probably many people warned him not to. Not even signed a pre-nup, its embarrassment too

To say "I did not punch, I hit you", is severety softening. That is to distance yourself from what you done, to make it less.
DV survivor here: you hide in the bathroom because it’s sometimes the only room in a house with an internal lock only, so you can lock them out.
I could never be a lawyer, having to represent an abuser and make up a story as to their defence... I morally can't do it.
There's a reason why she had a hard time finding lawyers for her.
I only just discovered you, as a result of the Depp trial but you got me hooked all over again, so I'm watching them with you this time. So much more enjoyable! Please keep doing what you're doing :)
I went through a nasty bff fallout and even years later when I found screenshots of the old texts when we were fighting, sent me into a panic attack. I can imagine how triggering hearing these audio clips is for JD. She’s a terrible person.
Why would someone in an abusive relationship, who claims she feared for her life on many occasions, give her abuser a weapon (the knife), & then to engrave it in the way that she did as if it was endearing. That was just creepy AF & seemed to me more of a power move. However, there may be more context around the gift of the knife that explains her choice of that.
She’s so immature… I know im not the only one sitting here feeling so SEEN right now. As soon as she started arguing, my spine went absolutely stiff. It was a physical reaction to the tone of her voice and the things she was saying… I haven’t been in a situation like that for over 15 years but if you’ve ever been in a “relationship” like this, you don’t ever forget it. Anyone who is going thru this right now, you’re not alone! This can happen to ANYONE. Don’t forget who you are.
I watched interviews from Johnny years ago and he’s the same sweet guy as I see today. I believe he is very credible.
All of his waffling on can't really prove that his lack of employment is due to the writing of the op ed.
@@BelRaj I have been following him for his entire career and have been listening to the trial. I have not missed a day.
It’s such a shame how this as effected Johnnys career. I just saw Secrets of Dumbledore and was sad that Johnny wasn’t in it. It wasn’t the same.
I refuse to watch it

when they dropped him years ago - i proudly commented on their instagram posts how they’re utter trash for making that decision & since then have sworn them off
I honestly think he didn't do a good job as Grindelwald but that's my personal taste since he does caricatures of his characters and I like the low key british style more. I still think it was awfully unfair that he got dropped because of these allegations
@@milacruz3970 those movies sucked anyway. The story and pacing was an utter mess.
I have so many emotions listening to this. The audio recordings absolutely disgust me listening to her mocking a grown man calling him a baby and talking technicalities on how her hand was when she hit him. And the listening to him talking about his breaking point when he said he was leaving after her birthday party and her just continuing to hit him just makes me so sad and heartbroken for him. But also him getting sassy about the hearsay stuff had me cracking up.
When she called him a baby, I found myself agreeing. He's a 60 yr old testifying, with hyperbole & melodrama, that she is responsible for taking "everything" from him. Apparently, he thinks his alleged addictions & poor behavior on set have nothing to do with his career troubles. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ He appears to refuse to take responsibility for his own personal shortcomings. He's 5 yrs down the pipe from his divorce & still trying to litigate with Heard. Grow up, dude.🙄
@@edelweiss2.076 well, I think he wants his life back. As soon as she accused him, even without any evidence, he immediately and mysteriously got blacklisted by Hollywood.
I'm the opposite of you. I think this is important because it could very well be geound breaking for DV towards males.
@@edelweiss2.076 You’re referring to the behavior you disagree with that he has done since which is not part of this discussion. Whereas she was referring to him being upset that she had repeatedly hit him. Those are separate topics.
On that joint statement, it specified "for financial gain", which I don't believe was her motive. I hope his counsel picks up on that. Also, not only did that op-ed imply it was him, but she never made any statement(s) to the contrary when it was assumed to mean him, in addition to her feeding into the feeding frenzy over it.
Coming from a very similar upbringing as him I can’t imagine how emotionally exhausted he is and has been.
Hugs
Me too his poor soul , I hope he gets Justice and I hope Hollywood will cancel her for lying about such a horrendous act , this poor guy has been abused his whole life until he could leave , then marries someone like his mom . Gets accused of being an abuser while actually being the one abused is just mentally n physically damaging could u imagine having to pay ur abuser 7 million dollars ! That is absurd she cuts his finger off but he owes her I’m dumbfounded
Yesterday I watched another group of Lawyers live stream the trial, and kept thinking I wish their commentary was less. Then I find you girl, keeping It real with solid information and good feedback. Keep it up! I’m watching every day!
Emily’s the best!
After a year, I don’t remember hearing this testimony this way. I didn’t ever hear that Johnny was in the shower. In a totally vulnerable position. She’s a hateful, abusive bully.
Same! I didn't remember that he was in the shower. This case eerily reminds me of Jodi Arias'. Gives me chills to think this might have ended the same way if Johnny didn't have so many people around him.
But isn't saying "No false allegations were made for financial gain" different from 'No false allegations were made" ? To me, it seems to be two completely different statements...It's like me saying "I did not make a pie for financial gain"...doesn't mean I didn't make the pie. I just didn't make the pie with the objective of selling it...
I’ve had a broken nose before, not unlike this situation. Her nose woulda been pouring in that instant, not like a nosebleed where the tissue would have caught all the blood
Same. From being driven to the emergency room, to sitting in the waiting area, my nose was POURING out blood. I had to grab a new tissue what felt like every minute.
I know his way of speaking may test some patience but he seems absolutely consistent. Yes, I know Johnny Depp is an actor but this all seems very real, raw, and honest. It cannot be easy to sit up there and air dirty laundry. This is all just really sad. Even if he does not win in court, I hope in the court of public opinion that he is believed.
Depp is loving it, or he wouldn't have brought this case against her. Everything he's saying has likely been well scripted & practiced. I say that only because when he forgot his lines on direct, his lawyers prompted him.
@@edelweiss2.076 You think he is lying?
I'm honestly starting to believe that was his whole point just by his reactions & how he laughs when her lawyer tries to get him to react negativily he knows by how his life has been destroyed on her lies the court of public opinion is most important.
Hello, person who broke their nose here. In case no one has seen a broken nose in real life, it bleeds a tonne, swells, bruises, my eyes swelled up and I had 2 black eyes for about a month and after it has healed there was a noticeable bump in the bridge of my nose that wasn’t there before. There is not a single chance in hell that Heard had her nose broken then went on the James Corden show and looked absolutely the same
I could never watch this alone because of my PTSD from DV but im glad I got to watch it with the best lawyer on UA-cam. ❤
Her face at 38:03 is like "Oh sh*t he checked that Kleenex. F^*K". 🥴
JD's Lawyer: *asks a question*
Emily: Not something existential
JD: *says something existential*
Emily: -_-
Are they going to play the part of the audio where Johnny and Amber are talking about the fate of their relationship and Johnny is saying in no uncertain terms: "THERE CAN BE NO PHYSICAL VIOLENCE." And she replies: "I can't promise you I won't get physical again. God, I sometimes get so made, I lose it." I have my doubt about Johnny's lawyers... The audios makes it very clear what occurred in the relationship. Johnny was physically abused. There is zero indication from Amber...in those lengthy discussions about the fighting...that there was ANY physical violence from Johnny. Then they come to an agreement that Johnny will be allowed to leave the room once things escalate, but only for a very specific period of time... She says "You have to realize, in that kind of situation, a few minutes is fine, but then after a certain point...it becomes way worse...I become way harder to reason...to rationalize with...I become.... "
Very curious about this! I’m behind and just now catching up on these proceedings. Do you know if this ended up coming up at all? Because that’s pretty damning if so!
I love Johnnys testimony. The only thing that disappointed me was his attorney didnt ask him about the time Amber showed up in his hotel in San Francisco during the TRO but Johnny did make a small reference to her wanting him to break the order during one of the questions.
Both parties Attorneys are not presentable or effective.
@@snotx.7640 well that's not true at all.
This is breaking my heart,he is trying so hard to get away from her,she continues to instigate him.
I came into this thinking Depp was in the wrong. I hadn’t really followed the case except seeing the headlines when it happened. But damn for audio recordings are pretty bad for her
Yeah initially I saw her as a victim, simply due to those damn articles. The past few years have revealed how easy it is to spin people like Johnny into some kind of monster, I’m so glad he’s fighting to get the truth out because it’s clear she has some ugly demons within her.
Lemme comment on this audio… If he was abusing her, I promise she couldn’t get out one sassy word, or taunting phrase before he would hit her in the mouth. That’s how you know she’s the abuser. That right there. And the punching audio.
Men & women need to stand together in solidarity against mental & physical abuse. It’s frightening to listen to what a monster this woman is. I can’t imagine anyone having to live like this. Examples like this will educate people about truth & relationships. Johnny is incredibly courageous displaying this horror. He’s trusting we will see the truth & I believe people are. I pray he is completely exonerated!
I’m re-listening to all this. I really hope the jury remembers after all her histrionics -all this drama reminds me of my family unfortunately
Victims typically won’t look directly at their abuser. And Amber Heard has been looking straight at him since he’s been on the stand, as well as the jury and around her, but particularly at him. While Johnny Depp didn’t even glance her way especially when she was on the stand.
The camera cutting to Amber and Emily saying, “oh that’s a face,” is everything.
Side note - I am amongst the club of those who have broken their nose…well, technically fractured. I took a longboard to the face during surf rescue class. My nose did not bleed thankfully but there was a definite crunch sound and it swelled. The fact that it didn’t bleed and that my friends were down playing it is the only reason I questioned if it was broken. But like Emily said, if you’ve broken your nose, you know…or you at the very least know something is wrong.
I really can’t wait for tomorrow to see how irritated I get with Amber’s team. I hate the narrative they are going for. I kind of don’t really like their styles of approach either. What I really can’t wait for is Amber’s testimony.
Just heard Ms Heard berating JD. Horrible and so below the belt. Especially bringing up his children. She is vile.
An article i was reading kept calling Johnny "sunglasses wearing Depp" and like f them. I had an injury that resulted in me now having a lot of light sensitivity and you know what? Computers are hard to look at now.. the lights at work really effect me and sometimes I opt to wear sunglasses and a baseball cap to block the light
Really like peoples headlights at night have blinded me before to where I see spots and need to pull over or just test my faith.
As someone who was told by my optician that the medicines I take cause light sensitivity I agree. It doesn’t matter if it’s sunny or cloudy, I have to constantly squint unless I wear sunglasses and it sucks because sometimes not even that helps enough.
The trial between Misheard and Mr Death is the only one I've found this fascinating (apart from Rittenhouse). My heart is with Johnny, who I have never cared about at all, but he comes off more authentic in this than I ever thought possible.
I haven't been able to keep up due to work but watching bits of this, Johnny seems so triggered here. I feel for him so much. And no pain killers dueing his injury as well as an MRSA infection?? Damn. That's next level rough.
I hope he comes out of this on top; I need more Captain Jack Sparrow in my life.
Rewatching some coverage because I really enjoyed listening the long streams during my days. I have to say, if I were Amber & all of this was true, it would be almost impossible for me to compose myself. Im a survivor of horrific abuse and I have to sit there & listen to all of these people discount my stories?? No I’d lose it. Which is why Johnny’s snark makes sense to me. If I’m an abuse survivor, finally able to tell my story after all these years, I’m gonna be like REALLY BITCH? HEARSAY? I HAD A CIGARETTE PUT OUT ON MY FACE…
I really do not like those lawyers who will not give witnesses a chance to finish their thought.
Watching on replay 2:16:02, I feel so much for him, I can see AH thinking “This is what you get, because you didn’t die for me like I wanted you too. So I am going to make your life a living hell!” It’s hard to fathom people are truly like her. I feel so sad
She implicated him in the op Ed by timing. That's all it takes to ruin his reputation and career. Further he sent payment directly to the charities to expose her as a liar. The tax break was simply a bonus.
I'm not sure how he can prove that the op-ed was about HIM, when he was never mentioned by name. He reminds me of that Carly Simon song, "You're So Vain".
@@edelweiss2.076 what? She had just exited a marriage with him and it was about the abusive marriage she just exited. Who's it about? Bert and Ernie?
@ Edel Weiss 2.0 this didn’t age well since Heard said in testimony “that’s why I wrote the op Ed about Johnny.” Or when she reiterated “the op Ed wasn’t just about Johnny.” Eat your crow.
I think she planned to kill him with the knife eventually, while claiming self-defense.
As an accounting student… I’d love to be a forensic accountant on Johnny’s case 👁👄👁
I feel like Johnny’s lawyers should have been more specific on what these allegations cost Johnny …
I never watched this part of the cross. I think Depp is brilliant. He’s a lot smarter than Rottenborn. He immediately caught him on the first question and then the sassiness kept Rottenborn on his toes to dodge Depps bullets 😂 I think Depp keeps his cool and it’s bothering Rottenborn.
I was up the entire night watching this.
Thanks so much Emily for your input and knowledge.
Just one thing, he actually pronounces Australia correctly, that was lovely to hear.
This is hard to watch but coming in blind I see Johnny as the truth teller 💜💜
The need for fight is abusive behavior. It’s narcissistic feeding of their victim. They need the fight like air. They can’t survive without seeing the other person suffer.
I’m watching this over. When Johnny mentioned Amber saying “you broke my nose Johnny!” A good follow up question would be “Did she receive medical treatment for her broken nose?”
You need to take a much closer look at the online version of her op-ed and the one done in print by WP. In that particular paragraph that her lawyer pointed out to Johnny is where there is a real huge difference in there between the two op-eds. Seriously, you NEED to compare them and you'll see why Johnny was adamant that the printed one isn't the one he saw and read. Very distinct differences.
Ok why haven’t the lawyers caught on to this????
good catch by johnny
can you link the two versions please if possible?
@@chasingcharlatans i don't know if you can read the wapo. but you can google the online
I don’t think her toe was hurt , I think it was a ploy to make him open the door .
Those recordings are so uncomfortable to listen to. Man. It must suck for him to have to relive it for the world to see. ☹️
Yes, but honestly if you're at the point where you feel the need to record arguments, it's done. I think they are both disfuntional and she has a more confrontational style but both stayed in a relationship that was clearly doomed from the beginning.
They both had ample resources to leave. This wasn't the type of of DV relationship where someone is "trapped" by lack of money, children etc. At some point you're responsible for yourself and he seems a little too woe is me for a grown man who was twice (at least!) the age of his trainreck partner.
His testimony was so wandering and slow I watch on 1.25 or 1.50 speed. I can't imagine having a normal day to day type of disagreement with him. I know someone like him, he can talk about absolutely nothing important for an hour when asked one or two questions. She was the "alpha" in some ways but that happens when your partner retreats and avoids any confrontation.
They both need to move on & will be better off alone or with a partner more similar to themselves.
@@mtz6198 Gonna remember in the future that if I'm boring I could get battered and if I try and get away then I deserved it. Abuse can happen to any adult by another adult regardless of 18+ age.
@RealmEnchanted It gets worse? 😬
@@mtz6198 I understand the perspective that they should have ended it sooner due to their personality differences, and he had the power to leave, but that doesn't excuse her behavior. Obviously, he doesn't have the personality to handle this kind of person/conflict--probably partly due to his family history. That doesn't mean he's responsible or deserved any of it. They were seeing a counselor. He tried to speak up for himself. 🤷 It also seems that she changed from perfect to violent after they had already been together for a while. It's not as simple or as easy as "just leave" sounds--espcially for someone like him with traumatic emotional baggage coupled with an introverted personality.
Not a lawyer…. But I find it worth noting, that the joint statement says “neither party made false statements FOR the purpose of financial gain”. NOT- neither party made false accusations peridot. Huge difference between those two for interpretations sake. In my lament opinion 🤷🏽♀️
Noted that as well..... lol. Love ur name 👍🏻👍🏻😂
@@dsoule4902 ha! Thanks! I’ve seen other comments on this channel and others discussing this but I read between the lines and it reads different to me I guess. I heard it as acknowledgement that false statements INDEED were made although not FOR financial gain.. rather than refuting that false statements were made at all. So if I were JDs lawyer on AH cross I would be asking if not for financial gain then WHY?
It’s extremely odd wording for a joint statement issuance and my only conclusion is that it’s intent was not committing perjury and the “neither party” part is a total miss for me as why on earth would JD need to make a false statement against Amber in hopes of financial gain? The purpose of phrasing that way has to solely be to loop him so any claims of false statements weren’t only attached to Amber.
Amber had an awful lot of friends around her, taking trips with friends, parties with friends, dinner with friends.. In an abusive/jealous relationship like she claims, the abuser isolates you from friends & family and you don’t even want to see them anymore just to prevent a fight.
They sucked his money right out of his pocketbook
This. Right here. Sometimes it takes forever to grasp that this is what is happening.
Technically ‘hasta la muerte’ is ‘to the death’, like, ‘a fight to the death’.
They did not play the part of audio tape with her telling him to go ahead and tell people he was abused. They would not believe him.
Hopefully they do!!!!!

@@nicoledenel I believe you just need to search for it here on YT, “Amber Heard Johnny Depp tapes” or something like that should probably work.
@@justapanpirate yeah 😅 already did listen to it
Traditionally, the gift of a knife is VERY bad luck, symbolic of breaking a relationship. To add the ominous “until death” says to me that she considered the only “out” for him would be death. I would be terrified to receive that, and I would 100% be terrified for any friend of mine who received it from a “romantic” partner.
Especially like one year into the relationship. And yes, it is bad to give knifes or sissors as a gift.
For him to call “boom boom 💩” a “grumpy” absolutely killed me.
Yes, she probably gets better contact with her Apple Watch on the bottom of her wrist.
I wanted to watch Depp's testimony because I had missed it before. I only started watching when she began to testify. So I started here because I had found you during her testimony and Truly Enjoyed your commentary. But your talking over his testimony is very often & loud. So I went to Sky & watched these days there. I want to say thank you for listening to viewers, you did. During her portion you were more energetic Thankfully and what you added was so important & informative! But you let us listen & hear. You moved the questions to you up so we could read the CC. You grew because you listened And I thank You so much for being open to us. Your Smarts are a welcome joy. You're the Best as I told my family, I think we all passed your channel to our friends & family. Thank You Ma'am.
