In Virginia, the trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Hurd ended. The actor demanded from the former wife $ 50 million, he had 100 million in the oncoming lawsuit. We tell how the 23rd day of the meeting went.
The subject of the court was an article in the American newspaper in 2018. It was written by Amber Hurd, and she claims that the title was invented by journalists. He read: "I survived home violence in a relationship, and everyone recouped me." The name of Johnny Depp in the text was not directly mentioned, but the actor believes that everyone already understood who she was talking about.
The result of the process was the satisfaction of the Johnny Depp lawsuit in terms of 8.35 million dollars in the USA.
In our opinion, the most poorly position of the defense of Ember Herd looked at the last 2 days of meetings, which we will devote an additional couple of publications.
How the process passed in the first twenty -two days of meetings, we said earlier:
Despite the fact that the verdict has been announced, the case has not yet ended. The defense of Amber Hurd intends to appeal, and she has such a right. Johnny Depp is already celebrating the victory and visited one of the pubs where he celebrated it, continuing to tour with Jeff Bek.
And for now we will tell in details that we listened to the jury in the last days before the discussion of their decision. By the way, there were 7 people - 5 men and 2 women. The jury classified the names of the jury for 1 year, given the resonant process.
On the penultimate day of the confrontation of the parties, they had the opportunity to call the final witnesses. However, with Emmber Herd, they ended faster than expected, because Her star ex-friends like James Franco and Ilon Mask refused to perform on the process.
Johnny Depp also refused to use the stands for this regulations for his final word, so Embers Herd lawyers called her a witness for the second time.
Amber Hurd turned to the jury in her last words, saying:
She said that she received thousands of messages with threats of reprisals from the fans of Depp since the beginning of this process. I called it all "agonizing, painful and humiliating." Answering the question of her lawyer about how the process influenced her personally, she added:
Amber Hurd said that she had to get used to anti-campaigns about herself on social networks, and that she was uncomfortable in court, since Johnny Depp insisted on the publicity of the process, and everything that was happening was shot on the online broadcast chamber.
At some point, one of Depp’s lawyers on emotions asked “to stop this theater booth”, but the judge demanded not to interfere.
Further, Amber said that she was "not a saint", said that she was not trying to seem like that, although she likes to help others.
The actress said that she was everyday threats, “in the amount of thousands” from the beginning of the process, that people ridicule her recognition in court and cried in words:
Further, she touched on two points - the approval of Depp's lawyers that she warned the journalists of the tabloid that she would write a prohibitive order against her ex -husband in May 2016. The actress denied this.
She was also asked what she was going to do further:
Hurd hinted to recover the American Constitution, which protects such statements, but this time everything was much more confusing.
Further, it was about the recent testimony of Kate Moss, which we talked about in the last material. The ex-model said that Johnny Depp did not push her from the stairs. Earlier, Amber Hurd said that the assumption of a repetition of the incident led to her blow to Johnny in defense of her sister.
The actress was asked why she took, that Johnny had encountered someone from the stairs. Earlier, she already said that "somewhere about this she heard" during the time of their novel in the 1990s, and believed that he could do this again.
It turned out that the performance of Kate Moss was a complete surprise for the Herd lawyers team. The model itself decided to make clarity when she was mentioned on the process, and she read about it in the press.
The lawyers did not expect that she would have a witness, and Amber added:
Then she added to the question why she considers the actor's witnesses “liars”:
Here, Judge Penny Azkarati had to intervene and ask the hall to shut up, who began to murmur and disapprovingly buzzing with the assembled fans of Johnny Depp. The judge threatened everyone to put out the door. They took the places closer to the actor, so they are easy to see on the background of the picture from the courtroom below.
Also on this day other persons were briefly interrogated. For the second time, Dr. Douun Hughes, who previously noted that Embber Herd suffered from post-traumatic syndrome as a result of the survivor's violence, was called to the rostrum.
Julian Ecert, an independent IT expert, who denied the assumption of lawyers Johnny Depp, that Amber Hurd “tinted” the praised bruises in photographs for the court, gave his testimony. Such moments show that both sides tried to rush in their favor and ravine.
Next to the finish, Johnny Depp briefly summarized his position throughout the case:
Dr. Richard Gilbert, a plastic surgeon, spoke about Johnny's finger injury in 2015. He said that he studied X -ray pictures, a medical card. On this basis, the doctor believes the presentation of the version of Depp that Amber Hurd allegedly threw a bottle of vodka into him. It crashed, and the fragment cut the tip of the finger to the actor.
Earlier, a surgeon from the actress said that his version, on the contrary, was unconvincing based on the position of the hand. In other words, it is very difficult to identify the truth here. There are two versions of events, not a single entry or a third -party eyewitness, as well as experts who confirm the side that called them.
This is the key feature of the whole process - no certainty, actual evidence in many controversial moments. Only his word is against her word. If the process was criminal, and concerned directly to domestic violence, any of the parties would hardly have won it.
Since the criminal process requires reinforced concrete evidence, or the testimony of disinterested persons, or the results of shooting, evidence to confirm the prosecution. If Amber Hurd, after all the beatings that she spoke about, called the police and fixed them, and did not stand with a silent look, without answering a single question of the Patrolual, then her position in this court would not be so weak.
But the court concerned not violence, but just a newspaper article, and its possible influence on the fees of Johnny Depp.
