And here is why this thing is so frustrating:
Rottenborn's cross examination wasn't even good to begin with. What was 'good' for Heard's team is that they got under Depp's skin so he either truly doesn't remember sending those texts - which would be somewhat acceptable - or he is lying. What makes it look that he is lying is that he not just doesn't remember, but implied that one it could be faked or that someone else send that message from his phone. Which it was a dumb mistake to have less than two days of the jury deliberating.
