Your very welcome! 😄
Yeah it reminds me a lot of how some people who are use this tact with like Rittenhouse. "He has hundreds of people see him run away scared."
Seriously are they really using Ben Shapiro style tactics?
Here, its called yhe Depp dive. Has everything from the trial both State and UK.
Literally cant find a single tweet or video of it without some sexist or clickbait garbage attached to it, but it looks like Amber was writing nothing at some parts. Her pen is off the paper and shes making the movements of writing. So maybe mystery solved for some parts, she actually wasnt writing notes.
So what, it was some BS psychological warfare to make JD and his lawyers nervous or something?
eh, this is probably the least offensive tweet I can find of it. Theres a longer video out there where you can even see the attorney sitting to her right shake his head and watch her write nothing
Everything Amber did was an attempt to influence perception of the jury. The fake over acting, crocodile tears, constant talking directly to them and emoting at them.
It was the only tool she had.
I think it's the same reason she was wearing fashion glasses at one point. To look smart, cool, and collected as if she is the objective one in the trial.
But knowing it's all smoke and mirrors just makes her seem more insane and psychopathic.
Other than not watching the trial, my guess is that some are contacted by AH's newly replaced PR.
Their deflections have many things in common. Hoeg Law on youtube started to review some of them: https://www.youtube.com/c/HoegLaw/videos
Please don't promote Hoeg.
There are a multitude of reasons earlier in the thread.
The note-taking schtick began pretty shortly after Elaine criticized Depp's sketching & eating candy and looking down during the trial. Following her pattern of everything else, you're both right. It was just another performative action to manipulate the audience.
I really wouldn't pay much heed to the "she wasn't actually writing" crap floating around.
All the"evidence" is zoomed poorly exposed secondhand photos. The angle, poor exposure (the paper is way blown out), and fact they're examining already highly compressed images just makes it impossible to tell.
This is peak "bitch eating crackers".

Some people were saying the video is too blurry to see any writing. I would agree, but it does look like the pen is hovering above the paper at points when she's "writing". I wouldn't be surprised if her attorneys told her to do that (take notes) to look engaged in the trial.
Which could also be them reacting to some insane screed she was scribbling out.
There's enough other shit to paint this nightmare of a person with, I just think scrabbling for more is just a bit weird.
Can we please let go of the 'Heard fakes writing' arc? It's come up three times already with questionable sourcing and adds absolutely nothing of value to the discourse.
I'm not even sure it has been mentioned in this thread. Hoeg's got a history of some bad anti-trans shit, shouting out GAF and Moriarty and being pretty pro-Gamergate, as well as talking a lot about shit he apparently has no clue about. He's not one of the good guys.
Is this why they no longer support Easy Allies?
Think Depp might be ok(?)
Chuck this baggage on top of the fact she's actually a pretty bad actress, and has burnt bridges with WB who clearly don't think much of her, and AH is pretty much done in big budget stuff. She'll get gigs still for sure, but lower budget and likely smaller outfits to use her being there as publicity.
JD... Not sure. They'll not build him into franchises now though, whatever the result of this.
oh i thought he couldn't play anymore after his finger got fucked
Depp I feel will get offered roles left and right after this. The latest being some buzz regarding Beetlejuice 2 but idk how it's gonna play out.
I think it's fair to say they both won't have the career they once had regardless of the outcome. Amber showed she's a bad actress at best if it doesn't already prove she's a full blown psycho. And that's after WB was less than impressed by her with Aquaman. And whatever you might think of Depp there are apparently - and bafflingly - many mainstream media sources that fully believe he's a 'wife beater'. He might get some more parts after this trial but he'll forever carry the weight of the accusations and that's probably too heavy of a burden for studios to build big franchises and movies around him.
This proves WITHOUT A DOUBT he is guilty!
Having fun after 6 weeks of a Trial...I bet you Amber isn't smiling right now after her SUFFERING!
I like how the very first point that person makes is wrong LMAO. The other great one is that it says Amber altering her photos is a myth because thats ridiculous... except its been shown in the trial she edited at least 1 lol.

I think during the trial he was talking about how close he came to losing enough of his finger to affect his guitar playing. After they accused him of cutting it off himself he responded with something like "why would I ever do something so stupid as to risk losing my ability to play, when guitar has always been my love".
To be honest, this seems like a massively honest reaction. All the stuff he has gone through and now this case. Having to explain in detail everything that happened. Finally standing up and speaking the truth, must have been liberating for him. If I went through something similar, the mental freedom I would get from finally letting it all go, would be hard to explain.
Yes. Most "experts" expect a verdict around Wednesday/Thursday. Tuesday seems less likely, as the jury only got two hours last Friday and still sure have tons of evidence to go through.

Camilla Läckberg, a Swedish author, wrote in support of Johnny, after quote "watching every second of this trial".
Adding her voice to this is a pretty huge win for Johnny, especially in Sweden where the media have grossly misrepresented the facts.
As I've said before, the truth can't be obfuscated forever.
The more people watch the trial, the more people will come to the same conclusion.
For those of us who've watched it, it's immediately evident when you lie about/obfuscate the truth.

Hey guys, since we are back to conspiracy theories and tinfoil hats, did you know that Amber sniffed cocaine in court? /s
We really really really don't need this shit here.
There is so much evidence, that if you start using this shit, you will just give Amber's supporters more excuses to say that she is being a victim of online harassment.
mwhahahaha

I asked him how he knew that what that person said was true and he never answered
"Johnny Depp isn't the perfect victim and that is ok"
mwhahahaha

Apparently you can just dismiss that first-hand contemporaneous evidence based on Heard's courtroom demeanor…
Both are pretty much done when it comes to big blockbusters movies. Despite everything that's happened Depp's name is stained and no amount of evidence will convince people (and the media) to change their minds. Studios just won't take that risk and he's too old anyway for a resurgence anyway.
Thing is I don't think Depp really cares. He's made his money and he seems perfectly happy with his music.
Heard though? There's no way her ego can handle the downgrade.
So hear me out
If someone would tell me Depp did hit her once, or pushed her away into something, or threw (figurative) shit, or whatever, likely as a response to something Heard did before, I wouldn't immediately disregard it. Did Depp grab her hard on the arms to make her stop doing whatever she did, and she retained bruises from that? Absolutely imaginable. At some point, I can imagine something has to make the barrel overflow and there is a reaction (see: that Mortal Kombat tournament with Depp vs the living room furniture). Can I also imagine Heard making sure to have this potential one instance handled as public as possible? Absolutely.
I have no idea IF any of this ever happened, of course, but to me it would make sense also in regards to the makeup artist testifying.
But yeah, this is just one of many wild theories. I don'T have an answer to your question.
Maybe she was covering up makeup from Amber Heard''s bruise kit?
There's definitely some evidence that's a bit iffy in the case. For instance, Depp had a black eye on a photo, but a photo taken the same day (or maybe it was the next day, I forget) didn't show it, and Depp said it was due to the different lighting, and I personally didn't find that super believable.
But I don't think it matters too much that there's some evidence which is difficult to make perfect sense of. The thing is that there's so much damning evidence against Heard where you can say with zero uncertainty she's lying, but when it comes to Depp, at worst you can say there's some evidence that doesn't line up properly.

Knock it off with the, "Is Amber Heard writing" talk. This will be yalls first and only warning.
If you're referring to the train incident then it's the other way around; AH's team were alleging that the bruise under his eye existed before he boarded the train where Depp said he got punched by AH.
You misunderstood that piece of evidence. Heard's team showed another photo (with the kid) taken before the train ride, in which they say he also had the bruise, but Depp claimed it was just the lighting. There are other photos from that same shoot where he doesn't seem to have the mark, but I can't find those now - I saw them in passing when they were first brought up. I'm also not entirely sure claiming he had the bruise before he got on the train is gotcha moment they were hoping for anyway, considering she has admitted to hitting him multiple times.
The other train photo was the exact same picture as the one Depp's security submitted, but it had obviously been heavily touched up for the company's website. Depp's team also showed a picture taken after the train ride where he still had the bruise.
Having said that, it wouldn't surprise me if a little more went on from Depp's side than he was willing to admit, but I don't expect a victim of abuse to be perfect in every single way when they suffer through violence for so long, and I don't think faking pictures is one of those things.
Thanks for the clarification. I've tried to follow the case closely, but there's so much stuff to keep track of.
Yes, I guess that's one of the ones Heard's team conveniently omitted. I saw a few more at the time, so I can't be sure if that was one of them. As I said, even if the bruise is there, then I'm not entirely sure how that proves she did nothing on the train. If anything, doesn't it end up looking worse for her that he had multiple marks on his face?Isn't it this one? I swear the one in evidence was black and white?
The black and white picture you're thinking of might be this, which shows the mark Heard claims was photoshopped.
My only question for JD's lawyers is why did it take so long for them to acknowledge AH's constant pleading and talking to the jury every time she was on the stand?
Literally every time she talked, she was always looking at the jury. Is that allowed now?

Nope, I'm just going crazy. I did think the baby one was black and white but having checked it it's not.
I have to say though, the ones in evidence look like the contrast has been wacked up and then desaturated.

It is definitely allowed and is encouraged by a lot of lawyers.

Your attorney is asking you questions, but the jury needs to understand the answers. Who should you talk to while you're testifying?

The importance of eye contact
A constant stare down like what she was giving might be uncomfortable for the jury, though, and can definitely backfire.

Oh wow it really is allowed? I would have thought that's grounds for manipulating the courts. Ah well. 🤷🏻♂️
i haven't fact checked it but i'm pretty sure the makeup artist said that the damage to Heards face looked like it came from a "light headbutt".
I don't know how the timeline stacks up but Depp did say he headbutted Heard during a struggle?
