It’s 8 am and I never went to bed. I forgot all about this case resuming today. I ran across this LIVE Youtube around 7 pm yesterday. It was a law site and the guy that runs it, called The DUI GUY. He’s a DUI attorney from Kentucky. He drove down to wait in line for today’s Amber Heard testimony. It was very interesting. There were lots of attorneys in line and one guy who had been there nearly every day and talked about things we can’t see like the jury and there reactions. There are currently 9 jurors. However, once the case ends there will be a random draw for the two alternates. There are only 3 women on the jury now. All three have covid masks on and are hard to read. He did say none of the female jurors showed any emotion and didn’t shed a tear during Amber’s graphic testimony which he found odd. But the guys seem to really dislike Amber. The guy said when she would testify the jurors avoided looking at her.
But now I have a problem. It’s almost 9am when court is set to start. I know I am going to fall asleep before 5:30 when it is scheduled to end. I’m going to try and DVR it. But, I need you guys to tell me all the important parts as this is a crucial day. It was interesting listening to all of the conversations in the line. There was a cool lady there from Denmark. There were people trying to jump the line. The first 100 people get to be in the courtroom. The next fifty can watch from an overflow room. Anyway, I’m asking for lots of comments so that I do miss anything. Think of it as a reverse recap! 🙂
I’ll be checking in when I can.
The SNL opening about it was really funny.
Yes, it was, almost wish then could update it the Yorkie took a human sized poop🤣
Lawd have mercy.
I finally got caught up… I’m still spring cleaning so I have it on every tv in the house. Problem is: can only do CourtTV on one & Law and Crime TV on the others. Law & Crime is ahead of Court tv, which is delayed a few minutes. Supposedly live on both platforms so I can’t figure out why they aren’t exactly the same. Anyone know what time Ellen Barkin takes the stand? I need to schedule my vacuuming around her testimony 😂
Also, their safe word was “couch” lol
Mike b. -SNL skit was great!
Ok would love other’s opinions but she seems very dialed back so far this am! Noticeably so!
TT – great find w the YouTube vid! Thanks!!!!
Best Insta sights for this IMO are @houseinhabit and @thejdcase for back stories and catch up
Agree she’s dialed back. Probably coached. But it’s early still… let’s give her time! Ha!
I think it’s a bad look if every break she testifies different. I’m just waiting desperately for cross examination. PLEASE let it begin today.
I’m finding myself tuning out Amber.
According to the tv playing court tv, cross starts after lunch. Was she alluding to JD sending the shit in the bed for DNA analysis to tell if it was human or canine when she was saying he “hallucinated”? Lol
And I’m over her and think she’s lying for a money grab. Sorry not sorry. Cops take their own pictures and the evidence photos could be from anything. You can’t be a poster child of DV & not get any medical documentation or police reports. Plus sooo many ridiculous details and narratives. Who remembers that many details from years ago especially if this abuse supposedly happened continuously. I can’t get past her secret recordings. They both look like tools.
AHA!! 😊 both look like tools. You are very kind.
She’s being ripped on Twitter for saying she doesn’t remember dates, then saying that she will never forget. Oops.
And blaming the dog. One more jab.
I doubt that they got that home test for colon results. Just saying……..if you have a private doctor and nurse, seems odd to order a Home kit.
Same!! Johnny was very consistent. Very strange to come back from a week long break and acting so subdued.
Kinda sucks how she’s able to go item by item and clear up.her lies. I’m hoping that they catch her with “on this date you said A, and now you answer the same question with B”
They usually don’t seem to have the luxury of clarifying lies. A bit frustrating but hopefully not missed by the jurors.
I have the CBS News live feed on in the background.
Amber is back on the stand and still on direct (her attorneys questioning her)
She is still trying to bring up Johnny’s drug use a lot and making comments about his thought process, sometimes getting interrupted by objections that she is speculating and the judge is sustaining them.
These two deserved each other. I think she was the main abuser but I think he was out of line sometimes too. I think she wrote the op Ed to smear Depp and ruin him. I don’t know if he will win the case but this whole thing disgusts me. This is the best they could do with their lives? All that money, fame, influence, looks, resources and this is how they chose to make the world a better place?
They’re both assholes.
Agree with you. Two total wastes. Both losers.
If someone accused you of being a rapist and an abuser, wouldn’t you want your name cleared? I know I would. She’s a horrible excuse for a woman and he’s just sad to have fallen for her deception.
Wow…
This trial has actually shown how awful they both seem to be, but it’s not doing him any favors. At all. They’re bothubg continuing in a cycle of abuse with all this mudslinging its gross & repulsive
Watching now from Australia, Its the middle of the night. Couch was their safe word. COUCH! COUCH! COUCH!
So strange! My fave word was on Portlandia – “Cacao!”
Somehow can’t muster up any interest in this nonsense. Both a couple of train wrecks.
You are missing NOTHING. No cross yet. Just more or Amber “emoting”. AAN I feel like crap (literally) and was going to ask my boss to go home as soon as she got in. I literally have never called in sick. Then I got an email saying she is in a meeting all day. Wah! I want my mommy!! Toughen up Nancy for chrissakes. I am looking forward to the cross examination. With baited breath- And I am lucky I can have it on in the background while I answer these fools phone calls.
Court recessed for an hour, back at 1:40. Amber just got finished showing the court her various makeup kits for counteracting (creating) the bruising. She went step by step, “first day would be red, so I would use a green; second day would be more purple, so I would use- etc etc etc”. I would be sobbing on the stand and it’s been 35 years and he is Dead! Lawd help us.
For someone who is such an “EXPERT” on makeup, hers sure looks like shit the last two days. it looks like her blush isn’t blended at all.
Those color things she described … sounded memorized and rehearsed.
Let’s see her applying it, not just describing it. 👖 🔥
So does anyone want to talk about why Amber would mention Kate Moss last week? Self-sabotage? Johnny’s side wanted to get Kate on the witness list to dispel the rumor that he pushed her down the stairs, but they ruled Kate had nothing to do with the case. Now that she mentioned Kate’s name, they should be allowed to bring her in to testify. I think Amber thinks she loved Johnny, but she seemed to really want to be him. Notice all the identical (to Johnny) suits she wears. Women think that being with a powerful man will make them feel powerful, but unless they have some pretty good self-esteem, they can just end up jealous and resentful. When she couldn’t become Johnny, she tried to destroy him, and that’s what the suit seems to be about, but its so good to know the public isn’t buying it. I love Johnny’s movies and it makes me sad he was fired. What really is awful, is that women will have a harder time proving abuse.
I don’t understand why she is dressed this way. If I was her lawyer I would have advised something more feminine.
Anyone know if when a dog eats weed it causes them to permanently lose bowel function? I just can’t. 😂
Absolutely not. I had a Pomeranian that scaled my bookcase to steal a bag of weed, his AKC papers and an uncashed money order. He ate the AKC registration and the money order. He shared the weed with my 3 Pekingese and they all took a very long nap. Not a poop from any of them.
Not a single spot of 💩She’s a lying cow.
Hey sunshine. My dog ate 2 joints and $2 in quarters. He slept too.
I’ve known three dogs who ate pot.
One Lab ate the idiot son’s pot brownies and was rushed to the vet’s for emergency treatment. I think the vet gave her charcoal.
The second dog, also a Lab, puked everything up, including the baggie. After that, she was taken to the vet and she was fine.
The third dog, ALSO a Lab, at some joints and had no ill effects whatsoever. The same dog countersurfed and ate a bag of chocolate rum balls — no ill effects. She suffered through the electric scat mats to go under the Christmas tree and eat THREE ONE-POUND boxes of wrapped See’s candy. Then … she cried to have the electricity turned off when she wanted to come back. Worth the shocks to get TO the chocolate but not back. The vet couldn’t believe that she had NO SIGNS of anything wrong any of the times. She lived to a healthy 16 years. None of this was on my watch, and I still miss her dearly.
Whatever the outcome and I have my views on who should win and they’re not popular. I really fear for Depp he;s surrounded by people who aren’t healthy. Everyone close to him even his family are on his payroll. He has an obsession with self destructive people. If you’ve got ten minutes read the Rolling Stone interview with him it’s tragic.
I don’t think anyone thinks there is a winner in this case. Both have serious issues. I do believe one acted with malice and intent.
Can you please help me find this Rolling Stone article? You’re one of several people I’ve heard mention it. I found one article where he was an asshole to the interviewer with Keith Richards. But no big deal, just celebrity ass-hole-ish-ness. And another one where the interviewer was the custodian of Hunter S Thompson’s literary estate & went on Johnny Depp’s yacht & stayed on his private island for a week. But while both of those articles were interesting, they were fairly benign and neither of them were THE article that I had in mind, where the author went on a several-days-long binge with Johnny. Would love if you could point me in the right direction!
Sorry I have to get this out there because it really triggers me about abuse. Many abusive men have a weird way of thinking about what constitutes abuse. They have a way of dissociation in that they never hit you they may have strangled you kicked you pushed you but it was the object you fell against that caused the damage. It’s a male perception of a fight and if they haven’t punched you then they never laid a finger on you. Sorry this is so male orientated I know females can be abusive but I think o matter what happens or what’s right in this case the denial of responsibility for abuse is so reminiscent of what a lot of us have gone through.
Amen
I get your point, TT got me hooked and went back and started listening to recordings. The recording of her berating him for not knowing the difference between punching and hitting. He is trying to get out of there.
Depp: “ Don’t tell what it feels like to be punched”
Heard NEVER said a word about him hitting or abusing her., she mocks him for being a baby and trying to leave the situation.
He has substance abuse issues, SHE IS THE ABUSER. Hearing her clarify/ justify hitting him made me furious/ anxious and her failure to mention any of his transgressions 👀.
Just hearing her continuing to walk up on him, click click made me want to throw up my arms. I am sure she learned the behavior and has witnessed / experienced abuse in the past. Were her parents’s abusive? I think I read that they had a dysfunctional family.
Thanks TT, I’m down the rabbit hole.
Such truth!
Not much is happening. However, I am going to counter her response regarding Boo pooping in the bed. I have 4 Yorkies and various sizes. Johnny’s dog weighs about 4-5 lbs. I have a Yorkie the same size as his. I can see by the way they are carrying the pup. My dog’s poop is the size and length of my ring finger. Even if she had diarrhea it wouldn’t amount to what is in that bed. Also, if this dog is so sick as she claims, that dog would be wearing a diaper. If this dog sleeps with them, this wouldn’t have been a first time for the dog either. Now that I have gave testimony on the shit patterns of Yorkies…..
The reason why Amber says the public has turned on her, is cause they have. It is hard to listen to her cry about being abused when she herself is an abuser. We know she physically and emotionally abused him. He was no saint himself. There is no proof though, that he physically harmed her. The pictures mean nothing! It’s not proof.
This is a girl who thinks that hitting is better than punching. “I did not punch you, I was hitting you:. Punching someone is a singular act, hitting is a continuous act and she thinks that is ok. This girl thinks that physically assaulting someone is ok and justified and that Johnny doesn’t have any right to be upset. She didn’t leave a mark on him, so he has nothing to bitch about. She doesn’t realize that emotional scars are much bigger and longer lasting than physical wounds.
“I could never hurt Johnny”. Really! I guess we all had it wrong, severing someone’s finger is a loving and kind act.
She is getting shut down right now by Johnny and his rings. This is not going well for her. If he hit her with his big chunky rings, those rings would do some serious damage. Check out his rings, those rings would leave some serious marks.
This whole thing is sad……
She’s lying. First in the measured way she consistently responded directly to the jury as if she were in an episode of Law and Order. It was almost bizarre how she tried to stare directly at each of them as she provided an answer. To be fair, I realize that this is considered courteous when speaking to a large group but is largely considered to be a management technique and/or building a connection. It was her obvious body language as she tried to pull that off that made me realize that she’s acting. Adding to that, when she argued with the attorney about the donated vs. pledged funds… that sunk her entirely. Her claim of ‘I consider donation and pledged to be the same thing’ (I didn’t quote that verbatim) and the lawyer’s response of ‘I don’t’ was all very jaw dropping. She’s lying and trying to cover it all up real time
She is lying without a doubt.
I do find it amazing the stuff she will quibble about.
Donation/Pledge – whoever advised her on that should be fired from her legal team. That is just ridiculous! I think the lawyer was a step away from calling contempt of court.
Newness of her relationship with Elon Musk.
Hitting/Punching
Her constant claims of wanting to move on yet, she comes out with her OP ed piece. Will go on tv shows speaking about her “donation”. She keeps claiming how she is being forced to relieve her abuse, when she is the one who caused it.
Her being specific about some things, yet not knowing things that she claims she would never forget.
She loves Johnny but would never hurt him, she severed his damn finger. What kind of love is that?
If the courts should decide against her, her mantle will be: that she was right, that abused women don’t get justice and how society will side with a man. Failing to realize that she is an abuser as well.
Tomorrow will be interesting!
I think she will lose her shit with this lawyer, it was already ramping up to that.
I have an 82 lb German Shepherd and his poop isn’t even as big as what was left on that bed.
She seems like she’s sparring with his attorney. Comes across very bitchy. She’s be better off “poor little me, and the big bad attorney” lol.
Holy shxt! Cross examination just started! Camille Vasquez is the lawyer and wowza = she’s going for it!
Has anyone seen the clip going around of the judge breaking for lunch, shaking her head thinking, why me! Seriously can she sue both of these idiots for emotional distress!
I swear week before last I heard the judge order a taco salad. She wa speaking with someone to her left in the courtroom. 😛
Amber seems to be going all out for this testifying. I don’t care for her, I think she thinks she is the smartest in the room, and will have to prove it.
Acting skills won’t get her through this.
I hope that the attorney finds the thing that makes her lose her shit and she blows up. Just for entertainment purposes of course.😊
(Only because I don’t like liars and she just may be one)
Aaaaand Camille Vasquez for the knockout!! Damn! That was masterful- YouTube it guys, or perhaps Tamara might put up a link? It’s EVERYTHING.
Yesss! I guess that’s why she gets the big bucks (and Laura Wasser)! Correct me if I’m wrong people but if I don’t believe part of her allegations am I to throw it all out if I’m a juror?
Because I still saw no tears. The evidence wasn’t compelling. I think she’s acting as stated above and I think she’s embellishing A LOT. She just drones on and on with her elaborate, detailed narratives. I don’t get why her attys don’t tell her to keep it simple stupid as judge Judy would say. Really looking forward to the continued cross because, FIRE. As in liar liar pants on fire. It’s getting good! I woke up and paid attention once cross began. Vasquez hit the ball out of the park! Side note: I don’t have any social media although it has been in the news plenty. I also wonder if the jurors peek even if accidentally during the breaks because not sequestered. It’s almost unavoidable.
Omg Camille was masterful!!! Yes!!!!!
Johnny’s defense attorney asked Amber if Johnny had looked at her during the trial, and she replied, “no”, and it was because he told her she would never look into his eyes again. To me, this isn’t a threat an abuser would use, but someone who has been abused.
Amber needs to answer a yes or no question with just a “yes or no.” She’s elaborating way too much on each question. Camille is going to eat her alive. I have to wait for hubby to go to bed so I can finish watching the cross. We are both recovering from our second round of COVID (mild symptoms, thank goodness). He was in the garage most of the day when I had it on this morning. Now I want to finish watching the last bit of the cross examination, but will wait until he goes to bed. You all were right, it is fascinating.
My dear Yooper friend. I hope that you guys all feel better soon. xo ~tt
Thank you TT~ So far, so good…….second round!
Wow I am so sorry. Sound like y’all will be fine soon. I go to the corner beer storer (a lot lol) and people have stopped wearing their masks there. I go there because they have basic things and BEER! lol. So it is a community store across from the homeless shelter. There is a guy in there who is very funny. And weeks ago he asked how long I would be wearing my mask because no one does there anymore. And I was like, “Until Covid is over?” and I don’t have family and friends still getting it?
Amber Heard: 🌰🧰… 👖 🔥
Is it normal for people to speak to the media during the trial in the US?
I don’t quite understand the question, but the short answer is YES. This is being shown to the public live. The two people suing each other do not make statements. But everyone is talking about this and tons of people are talking about the case. We have one station here, CourtTV , that is totally about trials all day. And they all talk about what they thought about the testimony just like we do here. Part of our constitution (I THINK LOL) is that all trials are open to the public. Although capacity is limited.
I meant is it normal for the participants to talk to the media or on social media during the case? It’s a big no no in Australia.
Both Amber and Johnny have made a lot of public statements.
We did learn on Monday why Johnny would not look at her. She said that she just wants to look into his eyes It was like their thing or something. At the bitter end she begged him to look into her eyes and he said, “You will never see these eyes again. I believe Amber is lying. I also believe that anyone who drinks and drugs like that COULD be abusive too. He probably doesn’t remember much of it.
I feel like as a juror, I would be angry with Johnny for sneering and laughing with his attorney. As someone keeping an open mind, at least at first. But it doesn’t help his case. The pretty blond girl saying she was abused. I still feel like this might be a hung jury on BOTH sides. OTOH, Amber saying OVER AND OVER that Johnny would leave the argument and “run away.” It sounds like me that he was doing the right thing.
I am watching and I am not going to be on Amber’s side.
This is going to be a hung jury on BOTH cases. I am starting to believe her.
While I do not believe either will win their case I have to give props that Johnny for his part has owned up to the horrible treatment of her. Amber has owned up to nothing. I survived a DV attack on my front porch over 15 years ago. So much of Amber’s testimony rings false for me. I know all survivors deal with the trauma differently but I have known hundreds of survivors and not a single one has ever said that the location where they were abused “we’re not a problem” for them. She returned to the same house in Australia with Johnny where he supposedly drug her all over the house by her hair over broken glass that she was so bloody and cut up from that she did nothing to treat the injuries except take sleeping pills and go to sleep. So lady I call BS. I was unable to move after my attack due to family obligations and it took YEARS for me to walk out my front door without having a panic attack. I still live with my front door shut and locked and the front windows hid by dark curtains that are always drawn and my attack was in 2005. Sorry folks, while Johnny is a drug addict and alcoholic, I believe Amber is also a huge user of drugs and alcohol so if you want to discount his testimony based on his drug and alcohol use you also have to discount hers for the same reason.
@jojersey I was a victim of DV at a holiday house I loved. It was finally sold 2 years after the attack. I never set foot back in the house even to clear the contents of said house. I just couldn’t. My attack happened in ’97 I have many photos of good times in this house but they are packed away. I can’t bring myself to look at the photos after 25 years and I consider myself to be mentally strong.
I was attacked in the mid-80’s with a gun held to my head by some freak stranger. I had zero money to my name and plastic furniture in my crappy apartment. I threw my purse at him and was both pissed at him for putting a gun to my head and also laughing because I had literally nothing to steal. I stood with my hands on my hips and kept yelling at him “SO WHAT?!?! WHAT?!?!”
Turns out he was a prolific serial rapist in my neck of the woods and had many female victims! However I wasn’t what he was looking for as I wasn’t petrified and screaming in fear, but was indignant and yelling at him, so he left. To this day I have every door and window closed and locked, and curtains completely drawn so no one can see in. Before the incident I couldn’t have cared less. It stays in your brain forever.
There is truth in this. When something traumatic happens to a person, anything associated with that trauma sticks with them. The place, the smell, sounds, photos, the time of year, etc. It is embedded in to the sub cortex.
I like the both of you have serious issues with looking at photos from a certain year and even going to certain places associated with what happened. The unease and recoil that one feels is surreal.
The both of them failed in this relationship. However, as you stated, Johnny has owned his poor behavior, she has not acknowledged a damn thing. Listening to her now, she says she tried so much to change to fix the relationship, therapy, medication, etc. She speaks about fixing the relationship, not fixing herself. This is where she is not getting it.
Not sure why my comment went to moderation. My name/email were correct and I didn’t use any unacceptable words 🧐
My gawd, she is exhausting. She is never wrong, it’s never her fault, she is smarter than anyone else…
I can’t imagine she’s making any points with the jury this morning. She is sparring with Vasquez even on the little things and it’s super off-putting, complete with shitty facial expressions. Why aren’t her attys telling her to stfu and reign it in? It’s so bad I wouldn’t be surprised if the judge admonished her to just answer the questions.
Sorry I’m being a nitpicky bitch this morning but I’m really annoyed with her. I understand that a witness should look at the jury but I can’t remember any other one who looks at them during cross so much for every. Single. Answer. It looks like a performance.
Seriously, did she not get any prep from her lawyers?! Ughh I’m disliking her more by the hour.
No, your not being nit picky, just observant. I, too, found it strange how she turns to the jury with her every response. It is weird. It is not natural. Her responses are odd as well.
Her vagueness is not believable. She is not believable. I am not saying she wasn’t emotionally abused, but I don’t believe she was physically abused. I do believe she is an abuser. She admitted such.
“Her responses are odd as well” omg it’s like she’s incapable of answering a yes or no question. Wtf is up with her attys? I’m assuming either they are asleep or that she was “unpreppable” because they have not uttered a word, an objection, nor made an impact on her bizarre way of answering. She has completely sunk herself so far today. Maybe they’ll try to change after lunch but I expected a change after morning break and then nothing but more of the same. Also some of those recordings made her sound like a stage 5 clinger. No bueno.
I am at a loss of words regarding her attorney’s. When Amber’s lawyer redirected after Camille Vasquez, I was blown away by the constant objections from Camille and all the sustained that went with them. Does Amber’s lawyer not know what questions to ask? It was every damn question that she was being objected to and rightfully so. One would think that her team would go over the questions they would ask Amber. It seemed like a novice move by Amber’s legal team.
Camille was getting irritated with them, that is for sure.
ALL witnesses are SUPPOSED TO be testifying to the JURY That is who they are addressing. Every witness is told to do that.
The interesting thing I learn on one of my all too frequent all nighters was that none of the jury looks at Amber when she is on the stand. I found that very telling.
I know they’re supposed to look at jury, but at expense of looking at the atty asking the questions struck me as odd. Not once did she just look at Vasquez and reply with a simple yes or no.
Very interesting about the jury not looking at her. My kids are in VA and I’ve been trying to bribe them to camp out and get tickets lol. Shockingly, they are not remotely interested! I can hear their eyes rolling over the phone. Ha!
Okay please correct me if I am getting it wrong ( playing catch-up,)
1) she changed the year abuse started from 2013 to 2012?
2) He was sober during the first year of their marriage?
3) Looked up the videos/ site , TT posted … was she pissed off about not being in his will? Fell asleep and don’t want to go back and listen to all that again. Think it was Incredibly True… wow just wow. Not sure if I actually heard that. Guess I should google but this is extra depressing if he was sober
Sorry, guess I need to keep notes… 🤣
Okay, bombshell alert!!! (To me, anyway)…
Amber filled a defamation suit against him first! Has this been publicized? First I’ve heard of it! It certainly makes her whining about just wanting to be left alone seem like utter bullshit. I mean, technically she fired the first shot in court. And I also believe she was the aggressor in the relationship, especially with her priors. Vasquez is DESTROYING her!
Sorry, I’m addicted to this shitshow and I keep checking here to see if there are more comments from other addicts. Lol
Wait! She filed the defamation suit first? Are you kidding me. I thought he filed first after the OP ed piece?
Vasquez is beyond exasperated with Amber’s legal team.
The constant objections, hell, even I was getting irritated!
Tamara is going to need to set up a side thread for all of this…..
It is a shit show! I can’t turn away from it….
It was on the Law and Crime channel coverage. I almost missed it. I think it was when she filed for divorce mediation? But yeah Vasquez dropped that bomb and it was topic of conversation by the experts during afternoon break. Evidently was news to them too. I was surprised they didn’t spend more time on it because imo it changes A LOT. Glad I’m not alone in not being able to turn away from the train wreck!
I am heartbroken I am now waking up! Shoot!!!!!!!
The objections seen to be the main topic.
Amber lawyer seems a bit snarky.
Twice I’ve heard Judge Ashley say “Johnny Heard” lol.(on Court Tv)
Oh no! I wondered where you were today! I need trial buddies! 😂
Omg I ended up w food poisoning last night from a sushi restaurant and literally couldn’t raise my head today so just getting caught up on everyone’s comments!
Sidenote…. Anyone ever had food poisoning and still sick the next day? If so what did you do? Not throwing up anymore but achy, chills and headache 😩
Sorry you feel so bad but glad you’re back too. Um, usually fever not associated with food poisoning so might be something else. Might want to check with dr if not better. Meanwhile, hydrate, hydrate hydrate with as much water as you can hold down or Gatorade or pedialyte to replace electrolytes.
Also, been meaning to thank you for turning us all onto this. Those YouTube videos were awesome.
Aww thank you! I just spoke to a nurse and she said flu is actually around here right now too…. Argh…
Omg check out @thejdcase on Instagram- there is an author that met Amber in a green room when she was promoting her book. What she said is exactly why I’m so fascinated bc to keep, this is the whole issue!
Have had FP many times but am somewhat better the next day. Are you sure you don’t have the flu? The flu is going around. Could it coincide with you eating the sushi? Depending on what you had, could you by chance have an allergic reaction to one of the fish? And yes, fish allergies can come up all of a sudden. It is something that can develop over time.
Please keep an eye on it. If you have not improved by tomorrow, call your GP. Lots of fluids and rest.
Thank you! I just heard the flu is going around here as well and pulled up is it food poisoning, flu or COVID, looks like flu. Argh…. 🤷🏻♀️
I am addicted to this. At home with several mental issues and this is my “entertainment.”
None of this is good. Velasquez killed it on cross. She is so great!
I am heartbroken for his kids. It must be so traumatic to see Dad passed out.
Amber is in need of good therapy.
Johnny is in need of good therapy.
I’m starting to side with Amber. They are both awful but I think if I was in the jury, I would award her judgment. That being said, I cannot believe how much money is being spent on this.
I realize my comments are all over the place. Sorry-it is my broken brain.
Don’t be so quick to blame yiyr brain.
LOTS of people keep going back and forth. It is a very strange trial.
From what I’ve seen online, only the body language experts are sticking to one side. Most of them, not Heard’s.
Warning! Novel ahead:
Full disclosure, I am a survivor of DV in my home growing up. My mother has been diagnosed with all the things AH has been by Dr. Curry, plus more and was/is very abusive. So, it should come as no surprise that I picked abusive men and continued that pattern for many years. I have, however, had decades of therapy: individual, group, basically everything available. I also have a degree in psychology. That said, I originally was skeptical of the diagnoses given by the experts in this trial because I thought they couldn’t diagnose in the ltd time even though they performed the appropriate testing; I side eye all hired experts in general.
BUT, I’m finding myself triggered more by Ambuh (auto correct from survivor comments lol but keeping it because it’s funny). I’m much less triggered by Johnny. I’ve learned multiple coping skills with dealing with narcissist, histrionic and borderline personality disorders, and abuse in all forms. It seems to me that Johnny, regardless of his addictions tried to implement some of the known coping strategies. Granted, he’s no saint, and I do think he was verbally and emotionally abusive. Just my own experience and thoughts. I’m beginning to think that Dr Curry’s assessment was spot on. The covert recordings are only validating my suspicions. Saying that she is manipulative seems an understatement. People with these diagnoses also often place money very high on their needs list, FWIW. As an aside/anecdote, ironically my maternal unit used to tell me that Carly Simon song was actually written about me when it came on the radio. I was probably aged 5-8. I just remember I had to look the word vain up in the dictionary at the time. (Projection started very early)
Also, it’s interesting that she referred repeatedly to Raquel as her best friend, yet from Raquel’s testimony they are not close anymore. Raquel also seems very annoyed that she has been called into the shitshow.
Sorry for hijacking the thread. I clearly have no life and am totally sucked in, lol!
Your good and interesting. 😊
I noticed how R ocky was her ride or die until one question was suddenly became “used to be a friend”
Stood out loud!!!
Wondered what was up A H’s sleeve with that.hmm 😒.
This guy Tillet Wright is a nasty piece of work.
What this nitwit needs to understand is that the lawyers are going to ask witnesses 6 different ways from Sunday the same question.
I am surprised that no one lit him up, cause I sure as hell would. I would treat him as a hostile witness.
Talk about an irritating nose hair! Ugh!
Follow this guy on Twitter, he has been in the courtroom for a bit. https://twitter.com/KyDUIGuy I think he might go home soon.
TT – thanks for the Twitter account! That’s gold!!! I was so curious about how the jurors were responding!
Thanks for the heads up!
Also, on Court tV, love that Eva’s husband, Michael Sterling is one of the experts they brought in to get his opinion on the case!
Y’all, I’m on an island over here because I don’t have ANY social media like a dinosaur. Literally nothing: no FB, IG, Twitter, TikTok, etc. I used to be able to at least view parts of Twitter and IG, but it won’t even allow me to view anything anymore because I don’t have an account on any platform. (I guess I don’t exist according to the internet lol.) But I’m dying to know what is happening inside the courtroom!!! Especially jury observations since it’s predominantly male. Can someone PLEASE give the cliff notes version for me and others who are in same situation! Surely I’m not the only ancient holdout. Like I can’t even view the IG, Twitter links TT includes in some posts. I can view YouTube though, only it cuts off at a certain time limit. I’m having serious FOMO!!!
Ok I have been reading from someone that is there that it’s boring , yawning but there is some headway being made w Rachel to corroborate what AH said.
Thank you! Please comment if there are any new observations. I’m curious to know how they reacted to yesterday’s cross. And although Rocky is corroborating she still seems like a reluctant witness. I missed yesterday why they’re no longer friends-any scoop on that? Sorry for all the questions! A news outlet reported they got in a physical altercation but I don’t know how reliable that info is.
You are asking the questions I wanted to know as well! Found a lawyer on Twitter who was there yesterday and said jurors would not look at Amber and we’re fixated on Camille.
I thought Rocky was reluctant but now during the examination by AH’s attorney, still clearly on Team Heard. I just read a testimony or official statement from one their mutual friends. Whitney stayed w her after the staircase incident and opened up about how her father had abused her throughout her life and Amber does now as well. She feared for Johnny’s life during the staircase incident and said she thought Amber was going to kill him. AH’s lawyers tried to strongarm the people who knew this and just recently her apartment this week was broken into – with tools, several floors up, nothing missing and there’s a doorman. If you are able to get online check out @thejdcase – it’s on there
Oh why they aren’t longer friends?? As well as iO? If you look up the histrionic and borderline personality characteristics…. This is one of them.. unable to retain relationships. Nothing was said that I heard, that one is my armchair diagnosis 😛
Your brain clearly works like mine does. LOL! Wow! Thx for the info!!! I tried going to @thejdcase but it’s evidently Twitter so I can’t view grrrr. Seems like she moved a lot of her friends and family into their properties yet no longer friends. And re borderline PD, I live with one so very familiar with it! It is not fun, and only gets worse with aging. Probably why I’m fascinated by and hate watching AH like I do HWs. PDs aren’t easily treated but JD definitely needs help before his addictions and demons kill him. And that’s my armchair diagnosis! Looking forward to sister’s testimony (deposition?)
Emily apparently stomped out of court after her testimony. She is furious with her lawyers. The jurors saw that and were shocked. I have to say they didn’t do much to help her out on Tuesday.
@thejdcase is Instagram! I hope you can find it!
Raquel’s ex-hubby testifying now and seems to be really fond of Johnny! He said he was exceedingly generous and offered to pay rent and was turned down. That’s actually nice to know. He did say they had thousands of texts about her relationship w JD. I’m sure she is absolutely exhausting
Regarding Whitney Heard’s testimony…. JD defense brought up Jennifer Howell and I believe she will brought in as a rebuttal witness. It will refute everything she just said and describe how she was terrified of her sister and her father. Just an FYI
Well, I have flipped and after today I believe Amber was abused by Johnny’s hands This was a SICK relationship I definitely believe there will be a hung jury. They are both sick and both are abusers. There should be no winners in this trial other than OBVIOUSLY the attorneys.
I posted a Youtube at the end of the post. I fell asleep during Wednesday’s trial. Runkle says the same thing in more detail on his You Tube. Just click play. That is for the person who earlier today said she has no social media. You don’t need social media to watch You Tube I don’t think.
Also, you can sign up for Twitter very easily You don’t have to Tweet about anything. You can just read other tweets and follow people you like, LIKE ME! and follow a few news outlets. You don’t even need an avatar.
Thanks TT! I’m the lone social media holdout. I did watch the video you posted, so again, thank you. I watch all of not most YouTube videos you include in your posts but can’t view when you attach a Twitter link or Instagram thing, tik tok, Facebook, FWIW.
My refraining from all social media is a conscious choice. (At this point, a stubborn one, lol) Otherwise I’d have started following you a long time ago! 🙂
Two lone wolves make a ‘pack’… no social media for me. May of my favorite people do not do social media. I even have a separate private cell because not going to respond to most crap, will send a text . Got to the point of unless it is my children/ Dad/brother or BF you do not have this #. Think only 9 people have the number. If I call someone it is *67 first.
I think my husband has the number he just doesn’t call because we don’t have a lot of emergencies/ drama.. Not a bad thing especially considering life in my 20s👍
Yay for hold outs!
Sorry for misspelling, couldn’t find my glasses… also not bad because not in my 20/30/ 40/ closer to 60 than 50. hate to admit that a magnifying mirror can occasionally give me pause. I like this part of life more.
Apparently, people who had been waiting in line for hours and hours sometimes over 24 hours to get in and left the trial today because it was so boring. All but one of the witnesses today was just their original depositions from years ago on video. It was mind numbing.
Ok everyone! Little bit of humor here! It’s early and I can’t sleep. So, in Wichita, Kansas a woman defecated in the middle of an aisle in a beauty store. The defecation was significant enough that she destroyed 8 wigs. Where is the humor in this, the police said to stop calling them as they have confirmed it is NOT Amber Heard! They have a photo of the “poopetrator”.
NY Post
Morning TT and HeardvDepp peeps!
So Re yesterday’s testimony, I do believe JD is an addict – clearly he has said as much. I also believe when things got ugly he threw things. I do, however, believe AH has always been violent and started the violence in the relationship. How many audio tapes of him trying to leave the situation are there? Many! If you haven’t already read this, there is a lady who will more than likely be brought in as a rebuttal witness and will refute everything Whitney Heard said bc Whitney came to live with her for a YEAR after the staircase incident. Immediately, Whitney told JH that her father was abusive and Amber is abusive and everyone in her family is scared of her and she feared for JD’s life. There are texts of AH’s mom texting JD and telling him to delete these but that AH only filed the restraint bc the lawyers said she would get kicked out of the ph.
There is the author who wrote a book about psychopaths who spent an hour in a green room with AH before she let JD and said she was a narcissist and felt sorry for whoever she sunk her claws into.
I was never a huge JD fan – liked him ok but never even saw pirates movies. I just feel there is something about this lady that is off and so troubling…
That’s my two cents for the morning! Happy viewing!
I actually had to leave the house yesterday so I missed a lot. Sounds like I picked a good day to go foraging for provisions. I’m still behind because I slept late today.
My assessment is very similar to yours. I did watch the sister’s testimony and caught up on demand for some others. I’m not shocked that her sister is the only one who said she witnessed him hit her even though there were supposedly others present when these incidents happened.
I can’t get past the secret recordings, and the fact that he always wears those rings. I think they both have serious issues. He’s definitely an addict and I think he is violent under the influence but he seems like the type to destroy things, not people, imo. She seems to have a strong negative impact on most people who cross paths with her-like a pattern of behavior which makes me have a difficult time viewing her as a victim rather than an instigator. She also back tracked on several things she claimed under oath during cross. I’m actually disgusted by both of them for putting this out in the public. I am curious why we haven’t heard more about her filing defamation first during divorce or mediation? I was flip flopping up until this week and I reserve the right to flip flop again lol!
I’m still watching (although not as intensely) and will be interested to see if what you’re describing about rebuttal happens. I too never saw the pirate movies or was a fan of JD but somehow got sucked into this shitshow. It’s taken a life of its own. She lacks self awareness for sure and I still think they’ll both lose after all is said and done. Camille Vasquez is a superstar of this trial.
Until the next bombshell, trial junkie buddies! 🙂
You hit the spot on many things:
I too think he destroys things and not people.
It’s a shitshow
Camille Vasquez is there Star of this trial!
I had to turn off yesterday, it was annoying. I agree with you guys on the whole Johnny destroys things but doesn’t get physical with people, hence the throwing of wine bottles. I think that is the way he can control himself to not get physical with another person.
I do believe Amber provoked a lot of it.
I was leaning towards a flip to Amber but am going back to 49/51 in favor of Johnny. I honestly believe this will be a hung jury.
Neither person needs to do an autobiography that is for sure. We are getting the Lifetime channel right now!
Those secret recordings are disturbing and only has me thinking this girl was in it for the money and fame.
The whole damn thing is tragic!
Also I will say both of the Heard ladies have amazing hair. I don’t care for the Heidi updo but their hair looks SO thick and lush…. 🤷🏻♀️
Ha! Same! And I also noticed the braids this morning and thought no way she did that herself lol. I’m still so bitchy toward her and I don’t know why. It’s like when I hate watch a HW I don’t like!
You are right…. She just produces this visceral reaction when I see her and here her audio.
Her sister clearly used the same hairstylist bc she had the updo braid thingy going on. After awhile that’s the shit I was noticing…
I’m just waking up but did the man witness after lunch say “the money was too good to pass up” or to that effect?
AND his partner is Sylvester Salone…………aha.
I’m still behind and catching up. Wait… all the metadata for the photos she submitted were wiped/corrupted and they’re still waiting for them to be authenticated/date time stamped?! Wtf how were they entered into evidence and will they be thrown out if no metadata produced?
Gosh, today is tedious. I’m tuned out, wonder if the jurors are.
Heard that the gallery leaves for the afternoon and sits right down in line for the next day.
They have their cars loaded and take turns changing, cleaning up etc.
40 years ago I may have done that LOL.
It’s insane. Like a concert! Also, I was today years old when I learned that they were only married for 15 months! Geez! What a spectacle. Smh yet can’t look away 🤣
I know, I lived in Fairfax county before returning to Vegas and wonder if I would have given it a try, LOL.
I think we probably would have parked where we could get a glimpse. Chris would have for me, but only out of love, LOL.
Aha, gotta love that she opened the door for Kate Moss to testify. A mistake on her part and it could be very interesting if Kate Moss says “I don’t know what she’s talking about”
Guess his attorney was very happy she mentioned.
The person I truly feel bad for is his friend Bruce Witkin. You could see he was still heartbroken over the break up of that friendship. Didn’t even have the Bro talk. It is truly tragic when there is a problem with someone and they think the best answer is to not have that uncomfortable talk and discard a person. It is a shitty feeling. It was like Johnny was cleaning house but replaced these people who actually had his back with degenerates. JD needs to be cleansed of the people in his life.
Bruce hit it on the head regarding that Dr. Kippers. It was a scam. It was just another person with their hand out.
I’m not sure how it’s going to end. I know there were rumblings about even if Johnny loses that he will be welcomed back into Hollywood. I thought so for a moment but as time goes on and hearing the bridges he burned. I am not so sure. He is going to really have to straighten his act up, do a complete 180 to get back in the good graces of Hollywood.
I do believe Amber is done though, she is one messed up gal, I truly hope she turns her life around. I don’t even think Hallmark would hire her. Lifetime maybe.
This all so true and tragic. Sadly it is not an isolated incident within that industry.
I was really looking forward to Ellen Barkin’s testimony but it was super anti-climactic. He threw a wine bottle in front of a group of people while wasted. Annnd?
Ok I love Ellen Barkin and was disappointed! I felt she came off as holding a grudge. Also why in freak would you be with a guy who you knew was always sloshed?! I don’t get these women??
Sidenote I was with a guy who turned ugly after drinking and it ended shortly after I found out. No bueno
I must say I think it’s interesting that the DV expert on Court Tv is waiting for the pictures from Amber “which she loves to take” have yet to prove her feet were torn up from walking in the glass.
Not the first time it’s been mentioned. Hmm Amber??
Ellen Harkin was a bust. Depositions cannot be cross examined. Is it a civil thing?
She is a classic abuser, don’t leave,! Make me fell safe, make me secure. PROVE TO ME a you love me. Asking to visit his daughter… Don’t leave, prove you love me. You can never prove it because it is a control issue. Johnny Depp I hope he gets his addictions under control and stays the hell away from beautiful furniture, art and fine wine. Gallows humor, she was not afraid of him and she was the person who tried to isolate him . Not going to change my mind.
1) Refusing and mocking him walking away
2) Isolating him, he supported her friends/ family
That is the power dynamic. I did read that his daughter is being “ attacked “ for not coming to his defense by Depp lunatics. Disgusting, I do think he has made a choice to spare his children. … I can admire him for that.fact. In her own words she went after him with his children present.
After today, once again, the jury goes off for multiple days after hearing her case. I don’t know how that affects them. I wonder if her witnesses stay in their minds. I honestly don’t know how they avoid hearing nothing about this case. It also gives JD’s attys time to go over it all with a fine toothed comb, so we’ll get to see Vasquez kick some ass again on cross hopefully. I have a difficult time saying I’m on her side and I think the jury is going to feel the same way. At the same time, I do think his drinking and drugging sunk his own career as well as the unprofessional behavior as a result of the addictions. Do I think he was a “wife beater”, nope. I don’t know how he lost the UK case. Again at the end, I think she’s been so off putting overall that I think they’ll award no one. Perhaps during rebuttal the tide will change if Melcle’s predictions come true. And at this rate how can they finish by the 27th?! I do agree her career is done and I pity the next fool who gets involved with her. Yikes!
Vasquez will be great to watch. I agree w you that drinking and the drugs sunk his career. I’m sure he was hanging on by a thread and when the abuse allegations came out, he was officially done. Would be great if he could really clean himself up but not sure he will.
I also pity the next fool who gets together with her!
