Today in the Johnny Depp defamation case


Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s real dirty laundry was broadcast Tuesday in court.

The defamation case of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” star heard that he accused his “malicious” wife of “acquiring” him for “success”, that she ridiculed him as “fat” and “washed”, and then saw photos of ” Human feces “on their sheets.

The totally embarrassing evidence was produced in the second week of the London trial, when several Depp employees took the position to defend him from allegations of domestic abuse.

The actor is suing The Sun newspaper for defamation after he called him a “handcuff puncher” in a 2018 article, based on Heard’s claims that her ex-husband repeatedly assaulted her in rage fueled by alcohol and drugs. during their 15 month marriage.

The court heard Tuesday that after a 2015 fight between the couple in Australia, during which the tip of Depp’s right middle finger was cut off, the actor was furious with his doctor in a text message: “I’m done. NO MORE!!!”

Calling his wife “as full of shit as a Christmas goose!” Depp added: “The constant insults, the degrading, contemptuous and most heartbreaking arrogance that is only released from a malicious, wicked and vengeful ct !!!!!”

“She is SO FUCKED IN ‘AMBITIOUS! She is so desperate for success and fame … This is probably why I was acquired, friend … !! The texts read.

Depp’s former bodyguard Malcolm Connolly told the court that the actor told him that Heard cut off his finger on a bottle of vodka, before calling Depp a “cowardly king.” Heard said Depp was injured while spending three days assaulting her.

But Tara Roberts, the real estate manager for Depp’s Little Hall Pond’s Cay in the Bahamas, said in a separate statement that Heard was the aggressor in the relationship, even during a violent clash in December 2015 in which the actress reprimanded him.

“I heard her say specifically, ‘Your career is over,’ ‘No one is going to hire you,’ ‘You’re tired,’ ‘fat,'” said Roberts.

Employees said they never saw Heard with injuries.

The couple’s former stylist testified that the actress once claimed she sported “two black eyes” while appearing on James Corden’s “The Late Late Show” in December 2015, but saw no “visible marks” on the star’s face. that day. .

Employee Samantha McMillen said she was “confused” when Heard said after filming the show, “Can you believe I just did that show with two black eyes?”

McMillen said in a written statement: “Ms. Heard had no black eye, and had been visibly injured throughout the day and at that time. ‘

But Depp’s longtime maid testified that she saw too much once, when she found “human feces” in the couple’s bed.

Depp had previously told the court that Heard or one of her friends defecated in bed as a “joke” after the actress’ 30th birthday party on April 21, 2016, after a fight between the couple, throwing their marriage into the bathroom forever.

Housekeeper Hilda Vargas said it was she who found the unpleasant addition.

“I removed the top sheet from the bed and saw a large pile of feces,” Vargas said in a written statement.

“I was horrified and upset. It was clear to me that it was human feces. ”

Later, a Heard spokeswoman released a statement denying that the actress or one of her friends was responsible, and suggested that Depp may have been behind the poop.

Heard is expected to testify in the case later this week, as do some of Depp’s other exes, including “Edward Scissorhands” co-star Winona Ryder.
