Top 3 Wins That Led to Johnny Depp's Victory In the Defamation Trial (Sidebar Podcast EP. 29)

Law&Crime's Angenette Levy breaks down the three biggest wins for Johnny Depp in his defamation trial against Amber Heard. First, when Depp testified that this was the first time he was able to publicly tell his side of the story. Second, former TMZ employee Morgan Tremaine testified on his involvement in Heard's public leaks. Lastly, when Amber admitted under cross-examination that she wrote the op-ed because Depp is a 'powerful man.'

This is a huge win for survivors of DV, the abuser lost. She wasn’t able to manipulate the jurors with her vindictive words and faux descriptions of heinous crime scenes that never took place. Only in her sick NPD brain has she convinced herself of those things, and her poor sister is too scared to tell her it never happened. I’m so incredibly happy for Johnny Depp, a win for him is a win for survivors of DV, men and women, everywhere!! That Teardbag represents NO ONE! Her poor daughter has no role model whatsoever and that’s the true sadness here. Don’t delete my freedom of speech either, lol

Interesting you mentioned NPD. I also think she has narcissistic personality disorder aside from borderline and histrionic personality disorders.

Only a true narcissistic disorder person would do that belittling people.

I agree with both of your points. And the reason the first is so important is that if this person creates their own meaning of words (using the words" pledge" and "give" synonymously) it makes it easier for her to lie about everything she's asked.

Camille was smart in letting AH run-on, get angry and flippant on the stand, allowing her to admit that’s why she wrote the op-ed about JD yet Elaine is doing the media circuit still denying it was about him - how AH spoke with Camille was reminiscent of how she spoke to JD on the audio recordings AH herself recorded and leaked 5-6 years ago…. She dared him, just expecting money to go away but never thought he would be willing to bear himself, every wart and skeleton to the world to defend himself against what she claimed. The underbelly of this and her intentions seem obvious from the start - someone pointed out that in the ice cream pic one those special effect bruise kits to paint on bruises was on the floor near her purse…. So many small details we can all go back and see now, hindsight being 20/20 that are essentially Easter eggs AH left behind, that seem inconsequential but connect dots to her motivations. Heck Josh Drew even said at least upward of 30 late night visitors (just what we knew of and saw) of her cheating continually on “the man she loved” - he was a mark, a goal to obtain what she wanted infamy, fame, fortune and a career that perhaps couldn’t have been achieved without him.

[@kathleencampbe3ll70]

It is so obvious that AH never loved Johnny, she just used him to achieve fame, fortune and admiration because she knew she could never achieve that without him. She wanted what he had and plotted and schemed to get it all until he finally had enough. She purposely tried to break him and make everyone believe he was nothing but a drugged up drunken abuser. In the end, all she did was prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that JD wasn't the abuser but she was and what a sick, toxic and foolish wretch she truly is.

They gave her enough rope, and when there were a few minutes left before the end of the trial, she blurted out everything. Turdy to help Johnny seal the deal. She looked angry on that last day. Very different behaviour, combative almost, than the other days.

[@slayonce]

Donation vs pledge and her saying “I don’t know how to leak things” to “If I wanted to leak things I could’ve done it sooner with more impact” were the best examples of malice in the case in my opinion. And also the duplicated pictures that she somehow “couldn’t remember” which photo was which incident even though she had her testimony in front of her.

[@Khumzwi]

@@slayonce lol also, with that copyright video, what she was confessing to was her actually admitting that her stragedy to recording that video and releasing it to TMZ wasn't as airtight as she thought. If JD had not wanted to divorce so soon, she would have had more time to think of a better strategy to paint him as the abuser she lied he is.

Amber Heard's statement following the jury decision is an example of pure "hate" and "delusion" and a testimony to Dr. Curry's description of her psychosis.

Good points. The term amber alert may well serve to remind people of her behaviour, so when they come across someone like her they will recognise they are dealing with a narcissist. A likely abuser. And a probable psychopath.

Instead of a blanket statement like "believe all women, and all men are liars", if one must have a blanket statement to rely on, reliably, we should choose to "believe all victims" and for that let the justice system decide who really the victim is. In this case Depp proved beyond all reasonable doubt that he was indeed the victim and therefore defamed by Heard. Its time to accept the reality and stand with him, and his most anticipated return to success!

The real win For Depp was about an hour or an hour and twenty minutes into Heards testimony when she started delivering the most emotionally fake gestures and facial expressions and tone ever to be forced through a human being in the history of live television...But it was so difficult to watch that no one ever plays it over in their clips...I never thought someone could lie so obviously that the resulting tension in the listener caused goose bumps, and it was compounded by the fact that for the first hour she managed to seem relatively credible.

[@Suedetussy]

Actually, a top reason was that she was always talking to the jury while answering the lawyer‘s questions. It confused me from the very beginning and until now i can’t get used to this. As a jury member i would feel extremely uncomfortable and intruded if she would look at me directly. I‘d want to observe and make my own judgment in peace and quiet, instead of being pulled into her experiences. It’s manipulative. So many people felt like that, too. Doesn’t she or her team understand that collective response and stop that strategy during the trial?

[@Aligatorxx3]

I'm guessing that probably being so insanely narcissistic, she couldn't change her instinct to give a "performance" since she truly feels she's at the center of the universe

[@cocoapanda2001]

I wonder ... all of Amber's witnesses did that too, looking at the jury rather frequently... did she or her team of lawyers tell all their witnesses to do that?

[@dinghanxue704]

Well, it’s reasonable to guess that she chose her legal team, which means the legal team members were fully filtered to her taste. This could partially explain their incompetence. Second, maybe they think if the jury were allowed to calmly think about the facts that were clear and straightforward, their inevitable defeat would come sooner than they expected

In some jurisdictions (like the British system), the old form of courtesy was to reply to the Judge (in this case the jury is the judge of the facts). Hwv this practice has been mostly done away with n rarely insisted upon

She was literally performing to the jury - and checking their reactions. Anyone working this hard to convince people is almost certainly a liar or has some agenda.

Looking back to the beginning of this trial and way before that.
