She also had record of hitting her ex-wife.

This accusation does now hold up when you look into the details

I feel like the Reddit crowd so passionately defending Depp (which is weird) has literally no grasp of the legal issues here. It’s like they have completely broken with reality.

As a Virginia tax payer, this is is a HUGE waste of my tax dollars. I can't believe this trial is supposed to last for SIX WEEKS. Gross.

If Depp was so concerned about what his children thought or their reputations, then why is he airing such disgusting information about how he lives for the entire world to see? The videos, the text messages, the photos, his testimony about the drug use, the awful language, the threats, the destruction of property, the alcohol. It blows my mind that somehow all this, on the record, isn't hurting his children or their reputation but the WaPo Op-Ed does.

I've seen people saying things like "She’s going to jail", which no, even if Depp was 100% successful in his suit, that's not a potential outcome of this case.

This case is not about who was worse in the marriage. This is an extremely narrow defamation case where Depp had to prove that specific Op Ed was defamatory and that specific Op Ed caused him damages.

It's utterly bonkers. I don't think he's going to prevail on either count.

K, crazy…no one is saying his behavior was okay. He’s clearly a very troubled person. But, she walked in on him behaving like this, turned on her camera…and started asking leading questions to piss him off more. Any emotionally healthy adult would have got the hell out of there.

She asked him what happened, omg!? Clearly he ought to break something else, it was such an abusive question!

Did we ever find out what actually had happened btw? I missed it. I don't know why he was behaving that way. He also seemed to be blaming it on her.

I totally understand the desire to record when something crazy is happening to you. I get it.

Thank you. The rabid defense of Depp by some of his totally stable female fans here is something, isn’t it?

I don’t see how you can see her as any less crazy and culpable as he is. I am not so much defending him as pointing out that she is also a pretty messed up person. SHE PURPOSELY DEFECATED ON HIS SIDE OF THE BED and moved the sheets so he would lie in it. This is crazy, abusive behavior. Plus, did you not hear the tape where she tells him no one will believe him if he tells?

They are both horrible. Stop trying to pretend she is normal herself.

Yeah, but it's a defamation case, not a "who do we hate most" reality show, and he's the one that brought it... apparently over an op-ed that's weak tea at most. They are both seriously disturbed - but that exactly why this trial is a huge waste of everyone's time.

Exactly. I think they're both trash, but Depp's the one abusing thr legal systemntontry to get back at his ex years and years after the divorce in an incredibly weak case. So in this situation I'm anti-Depp here.

He has always lived the pirate lifestyle and has never lost a job until Amber accused him of physical abuse. This is what I’d at stake. His reputation and his work. It might be a waste of time for you but not for him
Or for his kids reputations.

This.

She’s the one who seemingly inserted cray-cray nonsense into the equation…and it seems like it was done strategically for a payout.

Remember: he’s dated a lot and his ex vouched for him. He was not the violent person Amber claims he is.

Sometimes crazy women provoke responses…particularly when on a mission. The fact that she taped everything is very telling.

This is such a red piller justification for abuse - she provoked him, she was looking for it. I guess his ex also deserved the abuse too.

"Actor Johnny Depp called his former partner and mother of his children Vanessa Paradis a 'French extortionist c***' in an email to British singer Elton John, Amber Heard's legal team revealed in court on Thursday."

Agree.

I never had a very high opinion of posters on Reddit but all the Depp posts have lowered my opinion even more. It is totally bonkers how completely untethered to any legal reality they are.

"She made me do it" is classic abuser language.

I honestly didn't pay that much attention before, but this trial (and it's important to note Depp's side is still presenting, Heard hasn't even put on her case yet), has me completely convinced he is a slimeball.

There are plenty of posts mocking DCUM in the Nova subreddit.

That being said....Amber appears to be an Instigator, Provoker, Manipulater, Melodramatic Drama Queen, using others as pawns in Her Great Play. Johnny could have just let it go, but cares about being painted as a garbage person. I don't blame him.

However, Johnny should get help for his substance and mental health issues.

Also, I regard Wasington Post as a rag paper, much like the NYT, shells of former great news oulets. Puke.

+1 well said. Also, I would hate for the world to think I acted like Amber. Not kind, gentle or classy at all.

Remember, Hollyweird, they are not like us. Instead of admiring them, we should all detest them. Worst deviants amongst us.

I hope he has some proof that some company didn't hire him because of the article. Otherwise why not just have his exes speak out in support of him and make a statement on his own? It's not like she went after him so directly and criminally that he couldn't make an indirect address of his actions himself.

Okay, and what's her excuse for her behavior? He made her do it? She's an addict? She's just a jerk?

When cross examination began (not yesterday but the day before they managed to squeeze in about 20 minutes before calling it a day) his lawyers brought up an article published in October 2018 (two months before the op-ed was published) stating that Disney was looking to dump Depp. They haven’t come back to it yet but I’m certain they will.
