Earlier on Friday, the legal teams of the 58-year-old actor and the 36-year-old actress held their closing arguments. Johnny Depp’s lawyers claimed in their closing arguments on Friday that Amber Heard is either “a victim of truly horrific abuse” or “a woman willing to say absolutely anything to prove her right.” “Heard’s allegations are a case of MeToo, but no MeToo has occurred. Amber’s allegations against Johnny are the hardest blows in this case.”
Heard’s team, on the other hand, noted that “domestic violence also occurs when there is no evidence.” “If you don’t take pictures, it didn’t happen. And if you did take pictures, they are fake. If you’re looking for media attention, you’re crazy. And when you’ve finally decided that enough is enough, you’re a gold digger,” said Rottenborn. “That’s what they’re trying to tell you,” he told the jury. “If Amber has only been mistreated once, she wins. And we’re not just talking about physical abuse. We are also talking about emotional abuse and verbal abuse.”
The case between Depp and Heard has been going on for six weeks. The former lovers have both testified in court. Witnesses were also heard for both Johnny and Amber. The case is very lively on social media and there is a lot of speculation about who will ultimately win this case.
The actor sued his ex-wife after she wrote an opinion piece for the American newspaper in 2018 The Washington Post, in which she said she was a victim of domestic violence. Although Depp was not mentioned by name, according to the 58-year-old actor, it would be obvious to readers that it was about him.
