From 'The Rum Diary' romance to bizarre courtroom testimonials: A ... (Economic Times)

The trial has turned into a spectacle in which Depp has testified about everything from taking pills as a child to a near mental breakdown.

But a judge ruled that Depp was within his rights to bring the case in Virginia because The Washington Post's computer servers for its online edition are located in the county. Heard's attorney repeatedly asked Depp whether he was responsible for drawing a penis on a painting inside his home shortly after the actor said Heard severed his finger. Depp said he used the resulting blood to write on his walls and recount lies in which he had caught Heard. At the hospital, Depp said he lied to protect Heard and told the doctors that he had injured himself. "It was sort of a rapid-fire, sort of endless parade of insults," Depp said. He said she once threw two bottles of vodka at him, the second of which exploded and severed his finger to the point where bone was exposed. Depp said Heard's allegations of his substance abuse have been "grossly embellished" and that he was never out of control during that time period.
