The defamation trial of actor Johnny Depp and ex-wife Amber Heard continues Thursday after jurors heard testimony from police officers who responded to the couple’s penthouse immediately after a 2016 fight.
Heard, who had just filed for divorce, arrived at a Los Angeles courthouse on May 27, 2016, to seek a temporary restraining order, showing up with a clear mark on her face, which she said Depp inflicted during a fight six days prior. Photographers captured the scene, and the allegations became tabloid fodder across the globe.
"Just because I see a female with pink cheeks and pink eyes doesn’t mean something happened," he said in a recorded deposition played for jurors Wednesday. The jury saw bodycam video of Gatlin’s response, which was less than two minutes. Heard could only be seen at a distance. It’s far from definitive, though. Heard’s lawyers have yet to put on their case, and some of her friends say they were at the penthouse when Depp allegedly attacked her.And even if jurors were to conclude that Depp never assaulted his wife on May 21, they have heard evidence of other alleged assaults before and during the couple’s brief marriage.
