The court battle between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard is going to devolve into a mud-slinging soap opera, according to a lawyer.
Summary by NewsWall May 01 23
- A jury in the United States has been warned that a trial involving libel charges made by Johnny Depp against his ex-wife, Amber Heard, will most certainly degenerate into a six-week mud-slinging soap opera.
- Rottenborn stated in the opening statements on Tuesday that the evidence will demonstrate that Depp physically and sexually attacked Heard on many occasions.
- "It didn't have to," Chew explained before the jurors.
- Chew believes it's a clear allusion to a restraining order Heard sought in May 2016 — shortly after Depp informed her that he wanted a divorce — in which she claimed she'd been physically abused.
