As a graphic designer, in simple terms, what he’s saying is that Amber’s team never provided the actual photos. And the photos that they did provide were screenshots and were altered/copied so that the original data could not be read. So when the lawyer is asking him, “You didn’t find any alterations, correct?” He’s asking a question that doesn’t make sense. It’s not the original photo. But the lawyer is saying, “Did you find evidence of alteration?” But he couldn’t either way because they gave them screenshots and copies. The actual photos that were presented were altered, either way. Because they were screenshots.

[@theNikkiDash]

Thank you kind sir.

[@crossup13]

agreed, forensic security researcher here, that's exactly what the witness was saying. It's not a yes or no question per se, because of what @sin city quinn said, but what I would have said is "that's incorrect, I *DID* find evidence of alteration as I was not given original photos and that in and of itself is an alteration, so yes there was evidence of material alteration of the photo"

[@jesusdamian2172]

The lawyer had no idea what that meant and/or didn't want to know. That was so frustrating to see. I was yelling at the screen every time he'd ask the same question and kept saying it was a yes or no answer. When in fact it was not a yes or no answer.

I've been a photo retoucher for 15 years and this man is SPOT ON. When an image is photographed in its RAW FORM which is the most accurate and the most largest form, you get ALL THE INFORMATION IT COMES WITH LIKE , time, what aperture/fstop you used, what lens you used, what camera your using, etc. Once you put it into a editing software like I use Photoshop and you start changing the photos sizing the information starts to get compressed, lose data, lose its rawness (its authentic realness) especially when you convert it from raw to jpeg which makes the image a COPY and not the REAL THING. RAW shows the real deal and anything else can distort the image.

I'm just saying, the two images that were shown, I went online and examined them myself. They look pretty much the same. It took me a total of 10 seconds to come to the conclusion that they are the same photograph but I do understand the nuances of it all and I'm not trying to be argumentative with you either. It's just that I expect the jury (or rather hope) they come to the same conclusion I did coz I was in fact cringing that she would even claim the photos are different and shot at two different times of day.

Interestingly enough Mr. Nuemeister was a very neutral witness. He walked a balanced road initially by trying to explain that getting a hold of Amber’s phone is the best way of determining the authenticity of the evidence presented. Unfortunately, AH’s team didn’t want that answer. They wanted a definitive “no, the images weren’t altered”. Here is where I tipped my hat to Bryan:- He KNEW that the photos were screen grabs from the get-go and could have categorically stated that the images presented were doctored. Instead, he gave AH’s attorney not one, not two, not three, not four, but some 5 to 6 times to restate the question instead of immediately spitting a plot line in favor of Johnny. It was at 20:02 when he became visibly fed up that he stated that AH’s team actually altered the photos by the very nature of how they presented it. An obvious luminary in his field and an upstanding individual for not stooping to skullduggery.

Did you mean to say instead "spitting a plot line in favor of Amber" and not "Johnny"?

[@Vonspeas]

@@neliaferreira9983 no, Nuemeister refrained from giving a narrative to Johnny:- recall Nuemeister was Johnny’s witness. If he gave in and said “yes, I have found evidence that the photos were edited”, and left it at that without an explanation, that would have been a tainted response misleading the jury as it could be interpreted as some intent to manipulate the photo on AH’s part. However, he was trying to explain that may not necessarily be the case as the photos presented are either screen-grabs or backups of backups (3rd generation photos) and to that point, what is presented in evidence wouldn’t stand to scrutiny, which could just be an honest/rookie mistake:- that’s why the original phone is important. To put it simply, Mr. Nuemeister did not seek to offer a conclusive opinion on the authenticity of the photos, even after demonstrations that showed noticeably different visible versions of the same photo. He was simply saying, we have no way of knowing which wouldn’t be an outright win for Johnny nor an outright loss for Amber. Compare that AH’s witness who shot his own credibility in the foot by stating with a degree of scientific certainty that he found the “source” and “originals” and therefore, the photos not edited…albeit being found on IPhones/IPads made months after the relationship. And the sad thing is, I’m willing to bet that not even Amber’s own expert was given the original phone. Note also that Nuemeister was able to trace some photos to an IPhone 6…a device which matches the timeline of events…should tell you who the real expert is.

It doesn't matter if the photos he was given look 1:1 identical to the original, they are completely different files and all he can do is speak to the ones he was given. FFS, the picture at 6:08 is literally a picture of a computer screen, showing a picture that's on a piece of paper, and Amber's team is trying to make the jury just think it's the exact same as the original. She's happy to provide that BS as evidence, but not the source file of the picture on that paper. I can guarantee if he was provided the actual device used to take the pictures, it would be complete game over for Amber Heard.

AH's lawyer should not be allowed to force an answer they want and JD's lawyer should have argued more for their expert witness's right to answer with clarification . And the judge should not instruct the witness to checkbox tick something he's clearly found to be unanswerable, as an expert.

[@zoesolomon7773]

it is outside of the judge’s duty. in cross examination, you ask leading questions which are questions that demand a yes or no answer. it was on depp’s team to object to the question correctly. if there is no way to object to the question, the witness must answer it yes or no. court proceedings are also very technical, and all of the lawyers are aware of the way testimonies work. the purpose of redirect is for clarification, where they can ask an open-ended question and the witness can give a more nuanced answer. you can’t cross examine after redirect, which is beneficial and lends to the idea that most issues of testimony are more nuanced than yes or no answers. this is why you saw the lawyer during redirect ask a question that allowed the expert to clarify his answer to the specific question he didn’t want to answer yes or no to, and then nothing further.

[@Jade-om7ie]

@@zoesolomon7773 I understand- then the witness can clarify on redirect ...but there are questions that just cannot be answered via 'yes' or 'no'. If the witness answers 'yes' or 'no' to one of those questions the answer is recorded in the transcript and can be used against the witness later/forever. So, it's a very vulnerable position - the witness is obliged to lie. The redirect maybe won't save the witness in a later cross in a future trial because they will show and read the transcript and they will ask: 'On date Y did you testify X under oath?' and again 'yes' or 'no'? Then on the redirect, the lawyer can forget to ask 'In a previous testimony why did you reply X?' (because he/she doesn't know by heart that the witness clarified that answer in a previous redirect) and the witness is then potentially seen as a liar. I don't understand of law but shouldn't be the witness protected on these questions?

[@theCosmicQueen]

I hope that near the end they call Amber on the stand again and pull out every lie she said. They proved that it was not 2 different pictures taken with and without light on as she claimed and I really hope they call her out on that. They can't accuse her of modifying the pictures because evidence of that can't be proven but they can certainly point out she lied about it being 2 pictures and show them both side by side for the jury to see at least one is definitely modified in some ways.

nope. just cropping or resizing does that. or saving to a thumb drive or disc. nothing at all suggests that the bruise is a fake, but totally real looking, photoshopped bruise.

I saved all of my original photos from my abuser, and still have my old phone with the original photos from 10 years ago. If there were any truth in her statement she would have been able to provide the proof. I understand things may happen and that people can lose evidence from moving, fires, displacement. However, she saved a bunch of photos in a editing app...which is highly questionable. Plus, she didn't protect her phone with all of her evidence knowing that she is going to be on a infamous trial? Major red flags here!

yeah but how different. So they changed in size? they changed to make it light enough to see? cropped it for printing? or what. No proof of making fake realistic looking bruises though. That's entirely different and requires a real good graphics person/program. I doubt you can make em on a phone. . still they had NO data saying the bruise was fake.

[@rei_cirith]

The fact that they submitted anything but the original photos to begin with is suspect enough...

[@andrealaforgia7699]

This is the problem with court cases like this when scientific or very technical arguments are presented. Lawyers do not understand them but want to control the narrative. At the end of the day, it's not about truth and justice. It's about impressing the jury with fallacious arguments.

[@Torch82]

In this case, I believe the lawyer had only 2 options: try to control the narrative, or not ask any questions at all. In hindsight, he probably should've went with option 2, but I'm assuming he's being paid top ask questions, so he had to do something if he wanted to earn his paycheck. I'm also glad he did, because he opened the door that allowed the expert to explain he was never given the actual photos. He was given screenshots of back-ups, and raised the question, if she has nothing to hide, why haven't they given him the actual photos, like the vast majority of people do in these situations?

[@andrealaforgia7699]

@@Torch82 The problem is the impact of some questions on the jury. Not all questions have "yes" or "no" answers. I don't think the judge did a great job there, by forcing the witness to answer that way. The lawyer asked his question in a way that is very misleading. He implied that a technical operation was possible but there is no evidence that it was actually performed by Heard. The witness was trying to explain that nobody can perform that operation so, whilst it's technically correct to say that there was no evidence that Heard performed that operation, it would be relevant for the jury to know that this wasn't a situation where Heard was unwilling to perform that operation; she was unable to because everybody is unable to. Those are two different concepts: "I want but I can't" is very different from "I can't but I want".

[@shopgirl6183]

That's what lawyers have to do sometimes in an attempt to win the suit for the client. In this case, AH's lawyers don't have much to work with because it's obvious their client is guilty of lying, and hence their lawyers can only play the strategic role of having to discredit the expert witness and objecting to cut short the time. They are just making a living and could be nice people in real life. From AH's perspective, CV was probably really rude too, but she was fantastic to us how she grilled AH.
