Is anyone watching the Depp -Heard Libel trial ?

I agree, it is a waste of court time.. one of JD's supporters cried in the witness stand as he desribed how AH's actions in causing so many of JD's people to be adversely affected. She was awarded $7 million dollars at the divorce where the stipulation was for neither of them to talk about the marriage or the other partner in any way which would affect the others' career adversely.. and she didn't abide by that...if only she had, this wouldn't be happening now!!
 

Don't care about these characters at all but then I didn't care about that guy slapping someone on one of those award shows. This is a definite case of where ignorant is a blessing. I have my own life and I'm busy 16 hours/day.

He's suing her because she claimed through the Washington Post ( interesting that he's not suing the WP)..

That would be a big hurdle to jump as our 1st Amendment shields the Press in most cases, exceptions of course. Here, I don't see how the WP is culpable in any legal way.

Amazing how many people don't care about this trial but feel it necessary to post ...that they don't care..

If I'm not interested in a topic I ignore the thread..

Ha, ha, ha! Well, I'm not following it either but since it's a thread and I have seen a few headlines, I will comment. It amazes me that people with so much money seem to have
many shortcomings and are maybe more emotionally challenge that your average person.
I saw a pic of JD and I couldn't believe it's the same guy from all those pirate movies. He
certainly let himself go! (260 lbs)!

I can't comment about his image movie V real life, can you believe I've never seen a single JD or AH movie ? I presume tho' the Pirate movies were made when he substantially younger
 
I find it interesting to see if this man can redeem his name and career. She didn’t need to go public especially with personal problems in a case that was at very least mutually abusive I would say. I still don’t think he laid a hand on her. Obviously there was verbal abuse and breaking objects. I’m sure she realized he used drugs and alcohol and used with him when they got together. Now she’s throwing that all up in his face. Even after he admitted to it all.

transpires she used/uses Ecstasy and 'mushrooms' a lot of the time...
 
I watched a little of this and everything I heard out of Depp's mouth was nonsensical. I couldn't make sense out of anything he was saying. I was like WTF? Granted I haven't followed it.

I heard he spends an exorbitant amount of money on staff and security every month. If that's fame and riches, no thanks.

yes you're right, from what I've learned.. and honestly before this trial I knew nothing of either of them, they were of no interest to me, I didn't even watch or read of the divorce case... but yes it seems he earns so much money that he can afford security everywhere he goes, they're on the payroll..he has 3 luxury penthouses, several other homes, and owns an Island .. his sister is even on his staff..

He has a permanent lawyer and publicist on his staff ...and a myriad of ancillary staff

Apparently he earns 20 million for one movie....when questioned about his earning in court.. he said quote '' well I know it's a ludicrous amount to pay anyone, but I'm certainly not going to tell them they just need to pay me half ''
 
I just went to the Borderline Personality Disorder board I go to from time to time (it's only for those raised by a borderline) and someone posted that this Heard woman is diagnosed with BPD and Histrionic PD. Well that would explain a lot if true.

yes I saw it earlier, apparently she's been officially diagnosed as having Borderline Personality Disorder and Histrionic Personality Disorder, which means that she over-reacts to any situation where she is not the main focus of attention.

Interesting that the psychologist said that AH tried to fool them into thinking she had PTSD.. when in fact the diagnosed her with ''gross exaggeration of PTSD.. and found none at all

She described how someone with these traits, not to be confused, but often is.. with Bipolar Disorder, would attack verbally, and physically with aggression, if a friend or partner were deemed in the mind of the patient.. to be ignoring them.. or finding something or someone more important, and would never allow a person to remove themselves from the conflict the patient would instigate without chasing after them or hunting them down in a hysterical rant.. ... exactly as JD explained in his testimony
 
@hollydolly I remember my stepfather and oldest brother trying to reason with my mother when she was in one of her insane rages. She heard nothing, she just kept screaming the same thing over and over. They can't be wrong and are always the victim.

One often reads that they are afraid of abandonment but I don't think it explains how diabolical that is. Especially when it comes to their children. They never want to raise a functioning adult. Another description of borderlines when it comes to their children: They are the only child in the relationship.

Borderline can be confused with Bipolar I have read also because of the severe mood swing. But these people can flip in a nano second. Believe me, I know.

Oh I'm sorry you had to live with your mother being the same way it must have been extremely difficult ...

yes it was said that the main difference between Bipolar and Borderline is as you say... the latter can happen in seconds.. ..whereas the former takes a different tack and is more of a slow boil , lasts for days or even weeks..with a major high... then a major down....
 
@hollydolly When someone has a manic Bipolar episode, I wonder if they remember it? I don't know. My mother's brain discarded all her rages and behavior associated with those rages once over. My understanding is this is common with them and they will not understand why an adult child may go no contact with them. Which I never did. But if I could go back to 18, I would have.

Once over, they never happened. This appears to be typical with borderline personality disorder. Their brain forgets or stores it so deep in their brains and they never go there.

I confronted my mother once in my 20's about a specific episode of abuse. She flipped, denied and unleashed verbal abuse on me. Total projection. Yet I think way in the back of her mind, a place she would never go, I was stating the truth.

Many years later I mentioned how mad she got at my stepfather over the fireplace brick that was installed. It wasn't what she had thought it would be, which meant she screamed at raged at him over and over about the brick. I said that she got mad at him. Her response: "I don't remember that I got that upset." And it was a long repeated, top of the lungs, screaming rage. But in her mind, maybe she got a little upset. It's amazing how their minds do this. But the victims have to remember.

...it's the same with Amber Heard... Once the recordings of her were played to the court, her screaming, swearing, taunting, telling him that no-one will believe him if he reports the physical abuse she meted out on him... She sat there doodling, and smirking, as if to say to the lawyers.... '' and your point is ''?... almost as tho' as you said about your mum, that she took no part in it, or it was nothing to be concerned about...
 
@hollydolly I'll try to find that on YouTube. If only I had recordings of my mother. People wouldn't believe it though neighbors could hear it on the street with all the windows closed.

I've watched most of the psychologist examination and have to finish it. That Heard woman constantly writing is irritating.

I will say one thing regarding Depp however. No matter what she has said, he needs to drop her and never have contact with her again. You can never win with these people. He could have released those tapes as proof against her. That would have gone out in the media. I'm not sure where he is going with this lawsuit.

Like I said, I never went no contact with my mother but given a chance again, I would.
