"She was going to sort of stop and turn towards the camera to display the bruise on the right side of her face, the alleged bruise." “There was a bit at the beginning that was played here in which Ms. Heard is seemingly sort of setting up the camera and getting into position. He said that the ending of the video which was played in court was different to the one that came in via TMZ’s email tip line in 2016. He said: “When I had clicked the direct link that we received and watched the video in its entirety it was much shorter than the video we had received, the video that’s been played in this trial. The request was then denied because TMZ is not a party to the case and its arguments have no bearing on the defamation claims. It is understood Tremaine was called to the stand to tell the court about what exactly the video showed and where it came from. I’ll give you f***ing crazy.” The court papers state that TMZ was given the video by a confidential source and that the company had promised that source they would not disclose their name. Depp responded: “Did something happen to you this morning? You wanna see crazy?

One of Depp’s bodyguards intervened and broke up the fight but “by that time, Johnny had already grabbed Amber by the hair with one hand and was whacking her repeatedly in the face with the other”. – Heard claimed the Washington Post article was not about Depp. “It’s not about Johnny,” she told the court.

Civil cases are intended to compensate the person who is harmed rather than punish the defendant. – Depp testified that faeces were found in the couple’s bed in 2016. Heard said she never edited the photos, and used make-up to cover injuries. She described a fight in March 2015. Depp said Heard threw a vodka bottle that severed the top of his right middle finger. At one point I remember him ripping my shirt, and one of my breasts became exposed… Heard has said “she didn’t assault Johnny, ever”. “I was scared,” she said. – Depp testified that he never hit Heard or any other woman.
