Christi Dembrowski[edit]

Christi Dembrowski, Depp's sister and personal manager, was the first witness called to testify. She recalled how Depp had been abused as a child by their mother and that her brother had to hide from their mother in the past and, more recently, had hid from Heard during the relationship. Under cross-examination, Dembrowski denied she was concerned about Depp's use of alcohol and drugs but she said she had been concerned about his use of prescribed pain medication.[3][4]

Isaac Baruch[edit]

Isaac Baruch, Depp's neighbor during his marriage to Heard, testified about an incident Heard told him about in May 2016.[3] He also said that Depp's family had been "completely wrecked" by Heard's claims.[4][5]

Kate James, Heard's former personal assistant, described Heard as "belligerent and abusive," saying Heard frequently screamed at her and sent abusive text messages. She also described Heard's use of drugs, and further testified that Heard had treated her own sister Whitney badly.[6][7][8]

Laurel Anderson[edit]

Laurel Anderson, Depp and Heard's therapist in 2015, testified that there was "mutual abuse" during the marriage, with both parties at times initiating violent conflicts.[6][9][7] She further testified that both Depp and Heard had been beaten by a parent as children, characterizing Depp as "well-controlled" over decades and not violent against previous partners, but that he was "triggered" when with Heard.[9]

David Kipper[edit]

David Kipper, Depp's private physician, testified he had diagnosed Depp with ADHD, bipolar disorder, depression, insomnia, substance dependence, and chronic reflux.[10] Kipper stated he had attempted to treat Depp's addictions to alcohol, opioids, benzodiazepines, and cocaine several years ago.[6] Kipper additionally recalled his visit to Depp's rented property in Australia after the incident in which Depp's finger had been severed.[10][11]

Debbie Lloyd[edit]

Debbie Lloyd, who worked with Kipper as a nurse, testified the relationship was "toxic" and that Heard would instigate arguments with Depp.[10][12] She also described how she attended Depp's rented house in Australia in 2015 after his finger injury.[10]

Sean Bett[edit]

Sean Bett, Depp's security guard, testified that he had never seen Depp or Heard be violent towards each other, but that their relationship eventually descended to "constant arguing and bickering." Bett also presented to the court photographs he had taken in March and December 2015 of Depp's injuries.[13]

Keenan Wyatt[edit]

Keenan Wyatt, Depp's on-set audio technician since the 1990s, testified he had never witnessed Depp being abusive. He further described the Boston to Los Angeles flight and claimed that at one point, he "went up to her and said something to the effect of 'you know he cares about you'" at which he claimed she snapped and started yelling.[14]

Johnny Depp[edit]

Direct Examination[edit]

In his testimony, Depp said he had "never struck" Heard or any other woman,[12] and had sued her to clear his name and to repair the damage her allegations caused to his career.[15] He described his childhood with an abusive mother and said he used drugs as self-medication to cope with his childhood trauma. He denied having been addicted to any substance other than Roxicodone and stated that Heard had "grossly embellished" the extent of his "quote-unquote substance abuse."[16] Depp testified that Heard often insulted him verbally and that as these incidents "continued to escalate, I went straight to what I had learned as a youth, which was to remove myself from the situation so that it couldn't continue because there's only so much your ears can hear and never forget."[17]

Depp also testified that Heard had sometimes been physically abusive,[18][19] and testified about the specific incidents that Heard had alleged he had been violent.[20] He denied becoming violent over a comment Heard made about one of his tattoos in 2013,[19] and claimed Heard withheld his medication to help treat the withdrawal symptoms of his prescription painkiller addiction while he was detoxing in the Bahamas in 2014.[20] He testified that, during the incident on a private plane flight in 2014, Heard had tried to initiate a fight,[20] but that he locked himself in a bathroom to avoid her and eventually fell asleep in there after taking two painkillers.[19] Audio recordings were played for the jury. In one recording, Heard tells Depp: "I did not punch you. [...] I did not fucking deck you. I fucking was hitting you. [...] You're a fucking baby. [...] Grow the fuck up, Johnny. I did start a physical fight."[21] In another, Depp accuses Heard of throwing pots and pans at him, which she admits to, while in yet another, Depp accuses Heard of kicking a bathroom door into his face, to which Heard says she cannot remember as she was on Ambien at the time.[21]

Depp testified that the argument in Australia in March 2015 originated after Heard had a conversation with Depp's lawyer about signing a postnuptial agreement. He said he once again locked himself in a bathroom while Heard was "banging on the doors and screaming obscenities and wanting to have a physical altercation."[17] He said he was left distraught by the incident and relapsed by drinking vodka when he exited the bathroom. When Heard discovered him consuming alcohol, he says she threw two vodka bottles at him, severing a finger on his right hand.[17] He said this had caused him to have a "nervous breakdown."[19] After hiding in a closet for some time, he began writing on the walls with his own blood about "little reminders from our past that essentially represented lies that she had told me — lies that I had caught her in."[20] He said he lied to Australian healthcare professionals about the cause of the injury because he "didn't want to get her in trouble."[19] In December 2015, he stated he had accidentally headbutted Heard while trying to prevent her from attacking him and that Heard had tried to fake breaking her nose with nail polish.[20] He further accused Heard of hitting him in the face during an argument at her birthday party in April 2016,[20] and of leaving human feces on his side of the bed soon after.[19]

During Depp's testimony, an audio clip was played of Heard telling Depp to declare publicly that "I, Johnny Depp, I’m a victim of domestic abuse ... and see how many people believe or side with you".[22]

Cross-Examination[edit]

Under cross-examination, Heard's legal team played recordings of Depp.[23] In one recording, Depp tells Heard: "Walking away is necessary [...] especially between you and I. It's of utmost importance. The next move, if I don't walk away [...] it's going to be a bloodbath, like it was on the island."[24] In some of the audio recordings, Depp shouted insults and vulgarities at Heard.[25] In another recording, Heard says she ended their relationship "after you beat the shit out of me," and later on in the same conversation, Depp says he "made a huge mistake," but it was unclear what mistake Depp was referring to, Variety reported.[26] Regarding a recording where Heard tells Depp to put his "cigarettes out on someone else," Depp testified his belief that Heard "grossly exaggerated."[25][27] In a different recording, Heard tells Depp: "I want couch. By the way, you just threw a fucking cigarette on me." Depp testifies the incident was about Heard "ordering me on the couch," denied putting out a cigarette on her, but acknowledged that he may have flicked cigarette ash at Heard.[28] In a recording from July 2016, after the couple had filed for divorce and after Heard filed for a temporary restraining order, Depp asks Heard, "Where do you want the scar?" (where he should cut himself), while Heard responds by repeatedly asking Depp not to "cut" himself.[29] Depp testified that he "wasn't threatening to hurt myself," but that he was "broken" and "couldn't take it," and that he had asked Heard to "spill my blood because that was the only thing she didn't have at that point."[30]

Depp was also asked about certain text messages he sent.[26] In messages to actor Paul Bettany, Depp made a call to "drown" and "burn Amber," then stated: "I will fuck her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she's dead."[26] Bettany replied: "My thoughts entirely. Let's be certain before we pronounce her a witch."[31] Depp testified that these messages were a reference to a Monty Python skit regarding burning and drowning witches, calling it "irreverent and abstract humour."[26][25] Regarding a message where Depp stated that he had "fucked up and went too far in our fight," Depp denied that this was describing physical violence.[26] In another message regarding a May 2014 flight, Depp states that he took "powders," "pills," and various types of alcohol including "a thousand Red Bull vodkas," becoming "an angry aggro injun in a fucking blackout, screaming obscenities and insulting any fuck who got near," to which Depp testified that he was exaggerating.[26] In text messages to various people, Depp referred to "the monster" — Depp gave various explanations to the term, such as alcohol and drugs. Heard viewed it as referring to his usage of drugs.[26]

Depp was also shown several negative articles about him from 2014 until 2018, which Heard's lawyers allege demonstrate that Depp's reputation had been damaged prior to Heard's 2018 op-ed.[25] He called the articles "hit pieces" and denied knowing that the Daily Mail had reported that he had been fired from the Pirates franchise in October 2018, over a month prior to Heard's op-ed being published.[26]

Ben King[edit]

Ben King, Depp's former house manager, testified about the aftermath of an incident at the couple's rented house in Australia in March 2015 where Depp lost the tip of his finger. He stated that Heard had later asked him if he "had ever been so angry with someone that you lost it with them?"[32][33]

Tara Roberts[edit]

Tara Roberts, who had been the manager of Depp's island in the Bahamas at the time of the relationship, testified that, at stage in an altercation between the couple, "Amber was telling him he was a washed-up actor going to die a fat, lonely old man". She also said she never saw Heard with any kind of bruises.[34][35]

Richard Marks[edit]

Witnesses for Heard[edit]

Witnesses for Heard were brought to testimony from May 3, 2022.[53]

Dawn Hughes[edit]

Dawn Hughes, is a board-certified forensic psychologist who was hired by Heard's legal team as an expert in traumatic stress, violence, and abuse.[54][55][56] Hughes evaluated Heard for a total of 29 hours in 2019 and 2021, conducted psychological tests on her, interviewed Heard's therapists, interviewed her mother and reviewed Heard's case records and medical records.[57] Heard reported to Hughes several "incidents of sexual violence" and "physically violent behaviors" by Depp.[58][54][56]

Hughes testified that "Heard's report of intimate partner violence and the records [Hughes] reviewed is consistent with what we know in the field about intimate partner violence, characterized by physical violence, psychological aggression, sexual violence, coercive control, and surveillance behaviors."[54][59] Hughes diagnosed Heard with post-traumatic stress disorder that was caused by the alleged abuse by Depp.[54][60] Hughes criticised the methodology used by plaintiff witness Shannon Curry, and said that Heard did not have borderline personality disorder or histrionic personality disorder as Curry had claimed.[56][54][61] Hughes also stated that none of Heard's previous therapists had diagnosed Heard with a personality disorder, that Heard had told them contemporaneously that she had been abused and that two of them had feared for Heard's welfare.[54][56]

Under cross-examination, Hughes agreed with Depp's legal team that she "did not render judgment on whether Depp engaged in intimate partner violence," but rather, she "formed the opinion that Heard's reporting is consistent with what we know of intimate partner violence." When Depp's legal team noted that Hughes had never spoken to Depp, Hughes defended her conclusions about the relationship, saying that she reached them by analyzing testimony, transcripts, and messages.[55] Hughes also stated that Heard told her that Depp had forced her to practice oral sex, but testified during cross-examination that Heard had initially described this as consensual "angry sex" without alleging any "physical force."[62][63] Hughes also testified that Heard admitted to hitting Depp "a number of times, in a number of instances,"[55] as well as shoving, pushing, and insulting him.[60] She argued that this was not comparable to the abuse Heard claimed to have suffered from Depp,[54][60] and that establishing a full picture of the dynamics of the relationship is key to evaluating domestic abuse, stating, "You have to examine the differential of power and control — and coercive control — in the relationship to make a full determination."[64]

Amber Heard[edit]

Direct examination[edit]

Following Hughes, Heard started her testimony.[65][66] She testified that the abuse began in 2012 with insults and controlling behavior from Depp, and first escalated to violence in 2013, when she alleges that Depp hit her several times when she laughed at one of his tattoos,[67][68] that Depp was deeply jealous, did not want her to work, and that their relationship became "a never-ending fight",[69][67][70] that Depp was especially prone to rage when under the influence of alcohol or drugs, often disappearing after a fight.[69][67] but that, when he would get sober, Depp would "go back to being this unbelievable, warm, generous, kind man that I loved" and that she remained in the relationship because she wanted to believe Depp would be able to remain sober.[69][67] During her testimony, the jury was shown multiple images of Heard with cuts and bruises that were allegedly a result of abuse from Depp and which she testified she would hide with make-up.[71][72]

Heard testified that during a weekend trip in 2013, Depp sexually assaulted her during a fight that had begun when he perceived that another woman was making a pass at her.[73] Heard accused Depp of ripping her dress and underwear before digitally penetrating her vagina, stating that she "didn't know what to do. [...] I just stood there."[68][69] In an incident on a private plane flight in 2014, Heard alleged that Depp accused her of having an affair with her co-star James Franco and then kicked her in the back, causing her to fall to the floor.[73][74] Heard testified that while the incident was witnessed by others on board, no one intervened, and Depp soon locked himself in the plane's toilet and passed out.[74] The jury was shown a text message in which Depp states that he "will never do it again" and blamed his "illness," as well as a tape recording of Depp howling during the flight.[71] Heard also claimed that Depp slammed her against a wall and threatened to kill her after she attempted to comfort his daughter, who was distressed by his drinking during a visit to his yacht.[73][69] In another incident, she described Depp dangling her dog out of the window of a moving car.[68] Heard further testified that after the couple attended the Met Gala, that Depp "shoved me down on the sofa and at some point he just whacked me in the face. I suspected I had a broken nose. I remember it being swollen, discolored and red." When she accompanied Depp to his private island, where he was to undergo detox, she testified that "he slapped me across the face." Heard testified that she began attending Al-Anon in 2014.[74]

Heard testified that when they were married in early 2015, she had asked her lawyer to draw up a pre-nuptial agreement but that Depp had stated that "the only way out of this is death," and had fired the lawyer.[74][70][72] Heard further testified that in March 2015, Depp sexually assaulted her while they were staying in Australia, where he was filming the fifth installment of Pirates of the Caribbean.[75][74] According to Heard, the fight began when Depp, who had ingested ten tablets of MDMA, accused her of having affairs with her co-stars.[71] Heard testified that Depp threw bottles at her and hit her multiple times, before holding her by the neck and raping her with a glass liquor bottle "over and over again" while shouting "I fucking hate you, you ruined my fucking life."[71][74][76] Heard described being afraid to move as she feared that the bottle inside her was broken; she began to black out.[71][74][72] She also described cutting her arms and feet on the broken glass on the ground and that Depp had threatened to cut her face with a piece of glass, while holding it against her face.[76] She denied that she had injured Depp's finger, stating that she had taken a sedative and gone to sleep before it happened.[74] The court was shown photographs of the damage to the house.[72]

Testifying about a later March 2015 incident, Heard contradicted Travis McGivern's statement that she had thrown a Red Bull can at Depp, instead stating that Depp had thrown the can at her sister Whitney, who was trying to intervene.[74] Heard testified that she had punched Depp after he had tried to hit her sister. Heard also testified about an incident in December 2015, alleging that Depp was "pummeling her" and "pounding the back of my head with his fist" while screaming that he hated her. Heard stated that she "got really still," thinking that Depp was "going to kill [her] now and he won't even have realized it." She also accused Depp of sexually assaulting her that Christmas.[72]

After a week's break, Heard completed her testimony, which included several photographs and audio recordings.[77] She said that during their honeymoon aboard the Orient Express in 2015, Depp hit and strangled her. In another instance, Heard testified that Depp had hit her and thrown her into furniture after learning that she had been offered a role with James Franco. She also stated that Depp sometimes self-harmed: "In fights he often would cut his arms or hold his knife to his chest or draw blood, superficially at first [...] He also put cigarettes out on himself."[78]

According to Heard's testimony, by early 2016, Depp's substance abuse had escalated and he began to experience hallucinations of people who were not there and accuse Heard of saying things she had not.[79][80][77] She testified that the violence was "now normal and not the exception" and feared that if she did not leave, she "wouldn't survive. [...] I believe he would have taken it too far and I wouldn't be here."[79] She testified that on her birthday in April 2016, she and Depp had a fight where they shoved each other before Depp threw a champagne bottle on a painting, "pushed me to the ground" and "grabbed me by the pubic area" before leaving.[81] She denied that she had anything to do with the feces in Depp's bed the following morning, instead stating that it was caused by their dog who had bowel control problems.[77] She claimed that Depp was obsessed with the idea that she was the culprit, and that it was what they had been discussing in May 2016, when she alleges the last violent incident took place.[80][77] She testified that Depp hit her, threw her phone at her face and grabbed her by the hair before her friend Raquel Pennington and Depp's security team intervened.[77] Heard explained that she did not cooperate with the police officers who were called because she wanted to protect Depp and did not want the abuse to become public.[79][80] Photos were shown to jurors, which appeared to show red marks and swelling on Heard's face;[80][79] the jury was also shown a text message from Depp where he appeared to apologize for the incident.[77]

Heard testified that she filed for a temporary restraining order because she wanted to change the locks to her home so that Depp would not be able to access it.[79][77] She explained in detail how she would use make-up and ice to her bruises and other injuries to hide them; she also stated that she always wears make-up when out in public.[79][80][81] Heard said she did not want Depp's money in the divorce; in a later re-direct, she testified that Depp had made $65 million in 2015, and that she would have been entitled to half of it under California law had she wanted it.[82][83] She said that she had pledged to donate the $7 million divorce settlement in installments, but that she had to stop paying them in 2019 due to Depp suing her, stating that she has had to spend more than $6 million in legal fees.[77]

Heard testified that since the abuse claims became public, she had lost out on roles and had to fight to stay in Aquaman (2018).[79] She denied that the op-ed was about Depp, but about her experiences after she filed for divorce.[79][80] Heard further testified that after Depp's lawyer, Adam Waldman, made claims about Heard being the one who abused Depp in 2020, her L'Oréal contract was halted and her promotional work for The Stand was canceled. She also stated that her scenes in Aquaman 2, which is to be released in 2023, have been significantly reduced and she has worked in only one other film since Waldman's accusations.[77][79][83]

Cross-examination[edit]

Under cross-examination, Depp's lawyer questioned Heard about the lack of visible injuries in many photographs taken of her during the time she alleged that she had been abused.[77][84][78] Heard said this was because she had put on make-up and used ice to reduce the swelling.[77][80][78] She said that she had not sought medical care after her alleged rape in March 2015 because she did not want to tell anyone.[84] Heard further stated that she did not seek medical care after many of the instances because she was embarrassed, but stated that she had spoken with her therapist.[78]

When asked about why she had not completed her donation yet despite claiming so publicly and having the money months before being sued by Depp, Heard maintained that she intends to after she is no longer being sued, and that she had used "donate" and "pledge" synonymously.[84][77][80] Depp's lawyer argued that Heard was not afraid of Depp because of things she said to him on audio and in love notes to him; Heard replied that "This is a man who tried to kill me [...] Of course it's scary. He's also my husband."[83] The jury was also shown a knife that Heard had gifted to Depp in 2012 as alleged evidence that she was not afraid of him.[82] Heard testified that she had given the knife during "the best of times" in their relationship when Depp had been sober and that she had therefore not been afraid.[82] She denied ever assaulting Depp, but testified that she sometimes had to physically defend herself.[83] She also stated that both she and Depp would verbally insult each other.[83][82] Depp's lawyer alleged that Heard had altered the photographs of her injuries from the May 2016 incident by changing the contrast; Heard denied this, saying that the change in light between two of them had to do with the light in the room where they were taken being turned on to better show her face.[82]

iO Tillett Wright[edit]

iO Tillett Wright, who had been a friend of Heard and who lived in one of Depp's penthouses in the Eastern Columbia Building, testified that he had never seen Depp abuse Heard, but that Heard had told him about it. Wright said that Depp had discussed his substance abuse with him and that jealousy had led him to drink and experience rage in his previous relationships.[85] He testified about the May 2016 incident, saying that he had been on the phone with Heard when he had heard a bang and Heard screaming, with Depp shouting in the background.[86] Wright said that he hung up and called Heard's neighbor Raquel Pennington and then 911.[85]

Raquel Pennington[edit]

Raquel Pennington, who had been Heard's friend and who lived in one of Depp's penthouses, testified that she saw injuries on Heard on multiple occasions, and that Heard had used make-up to cover them.[87] Pennington testified that she had seen the cuts to Heard's feet following her rape in Australia,[clarification needed] and that she had taken images of injuries to Heard's face and scalp after the incident in December 2015. She said that in May 2016, when Heard alleges that Depp assaulted her for the last time, she intervened in their fight.[88]

Joshua Drew[edit]

Joshua Drew, who was Pennington's fiancé at the time, testified that in the aftermath of the May 2016 incident, Depp smashed a bottle against the door to their apartment and burst in, approaching Drew in an "aggressive" way, "screaming, cursing, spitting in my face."[89]

Tracey Jacobs[edit]

Tracey Jacobs, a UTA agent who represented Depp from the 1990s until 2016, testified that in the last ten years that she was his agent, she found it increasingly difficult to negotiate roles for him as he had gained a reputation for being late on film sets and for substance abuse.[94] She had referred Depp to David Kipper for substance abuse treatment.[95] Jacobs said that Depp had problems with anger, but that she had not personally witnessed him be violent towards a woman.[94][95]

Witnesses for Depp in rebuttal[edit]

Witnesses for Depp in rebuttal were brought to testimony from May 24, 2022.[104]

Walter Hamada[edit]

Walter Hamada, the president of DC Films, testified that Heard's role as Mera in the DC Extended Universe film Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2022) was not imperiled due to Waldman's claims, but that the studio was concerned about the lack of chemistry between Heard and Jason Momoa, who stars as Aquaman. Hamada stated that Heard's role was not reduced as Aquaman 2 was conceived early on as a "buddy comedy" between Momoa's character and his half-brother Orm (Patrick Wilson), rather than as focused on the romantic relationship between Mera and Aquaman.[105]

David A. Kubler[edit]

David A. Kulber, the surgeon who reconstructed Depp's finger in March 2015, testified he bandaged Depp's hand in a "bulky" plaster cast following the surgery.[106] He stated the cast would have made it difficult for Depp to grab anyone or form a fist.[107]

Richard Marks[edit]

Richard Marks, entertainment lawyer and Hollywood expert, was called to counter Arnold's testimony. He claimed Arnold was inexperienced at negotiating contracts for actors, and that her estimation of what Heard could have earned after the success of Aquaman was inflated and inaccurate.[106] He criticized Arnold for comparing Heard to actors such as Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Ana de Armas, Zendaya and Chris Pine, who either portrayed title characters in superhero films or had starring roles in successful television series.[108]

Michael Spindler[edit]

Michael Spindler was recalled, and criticized Arnold's use of mixed methodology to estimate Heard's alleged lost earnings, describing her calculations as "not adequately supported" and "unreasonable".[106]

Douglas Bania[edit]

Douglas Bania, who had also testified earlier, said his analysis found that 35% of the total use of the "Justice for Johnny" and "Amber Turd" hashtags on social media occurred prior to the publication of Adam Waldman's statement. He argued that, as a result, Waldman could not be held accountable for Heard's negative online reputation.[109] He additionally testified that the actors whose career trajectories Arnold had compared Heard's with were not good comparisons, citing higher Q scores and social media followings.[106]

Morgan Night[edit]

Morgan Night, the owner of a trailer park in Joshua Tree where Depp and Heard spent a night in May 2013, testified that he witnessed Heard yell at Depp and that, in response, Depp was "cowering" and "almost afraid". He refuted Heard's claim that the trailer had been "completely torn apart" by Depp, testifying instead that he inspected the trailer the following morning and saw a sconce had been partially broken, and saw no other damage. He said Depp was issued with a $62 surcharge to replace the broken light fixture.[110] Night became a witness after the trial began, but was deemed suitable to testify as he had "been keeping off the Internet" once he became one of Depp's witnesses. He had been contacted by Depp's attorneys after responding to a tweet by pro-Depp Twitter account "That Umbrella Guy" about what he witnessed at the trailer park.[106] Night also testified that Depp's first wife, Lori Ann Allison, had worked in a film he had directed in 1999.[108]

Richard Shaw[edit]

Richard Shaw, a psychiatrist, was called to rebut the testimony of Heard's witness David Spiegel, who testified that "Depp had behaviors that were consistent with substance-use disorder and intimate partner violence." Shaw argued that Spiegel had violated the Goldwater rule, which says psychiatrists should not render public opinion about the mental state of public figures they have not personally examined.[106]

Jennifer Howell[edit]

Jennifer Howell, the founder of The Art of Elysium and former friend of Heard's sister Whitney Henriquez (the only witness to Depp's alleged abuse), testified about the veracity of emails she had sent to Whitney. Howell said she "struggled very much with what to do in a situation that, I loved someone very much who is doing something wrong, and I know that they're doing it because they're trying to protect their sister."[110] Heard had previously testified she had donated $250,000 to The Art of Elysium's children's art program. Howell testified that the organization did receive an anonymous donation of $250,000 that they believed had been made by Elon Musk.[111]

Candie Davidson-Goldbronn[edit]

Candie Davidson-Goldbronn, of the Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) testified, via her March 2021 pre-recorded deposition,[112] that Heard had only paid $250,000 of her promised $3.5 million donation.[113]

Kate Moss[edit]

Kate Moss, who had been in a relationship with Depp from 1994 until 1998, gave a brief deposition in response to Heard's testimony comment "I instantly think of Kate Moss and the stairs, and I swung at him". Moss testified that Depp had "never pushed, kicked or thrown" her down any stairs. She stated she had accidentally slipped down stairs at a Jamaican resort during a rainstorm, and that Depp had helped and "got me medical attention" afterwards.[114][115]

Shannon Curry[edit]

Shannon Curry, a forensic psychologist hired by Depp's team, returned to give rebuttal testimony.

Johnny Depp[edit]

Morgan Tremaine[edit]

Morgan Tremaine, a former employee of celebrity website TMZ, testified that, the organization was tipped off that Heard would appear at a Los Angeles courthouse in May 2016 and that he'd dispatched photographers as Heard "was going to stop and turn to the camera and display the bruise". Tremaine testified that in August 2016, he sent TMZ photographers to a law office that Heard visited despite it being very rare for paparazzi to be dispatched to court without receiving a tip. He also testified that TMZ published a video of Depp slamming doors and throwing a bottle about 15 minutes after he'd received it, and further testified that a video can be published by TMZ within minutes if the source is known to TMZ, but if the source is unknown, it could take weeks.[116]

Bryan Neumeister[edit]

Bryan Neumeister, a forensic and metadata specialist, testified that metadata for photos submitted by Heard indicated that they had gone through Apple's "Photos 3.0" app.[117]

Beverly Leonard[edit]

Beverly Leonard, a police officer [at the time of an alleged incident in 2009],[118] testified to having "observed [Heard] with a travelling companion", that "they got into an altercation where she had grabbed her travelling companion and ... pulled a necklace off of her," that she seemed to, "not be very steady on her feet", that her eyes were "blurry and watery", and that Leonard "could smell alcohol."[119]

Witnesses for Heard in rebuttal[edit]

Witnesses for Heard in rebuttal were brought to testimony from May 26, 2022.[120]

Julian Ackert[edit]

Julian Ackert, a computer forensic investigator, was called to contradict the findings of Depp's metadata expert Bryan Neumeister.[121]

Dawn Hughes[edit]

Dawn Hughes, a board-certified forensic psychologist, returned to testify after Shannon Curry's testimony which disputed Heard’s claim that she has post-traumatic stress disorder. Hughes had reached the opposite conclusion, and she re-stated those opinions in her counter-rebuttal.[121]

Amber Heard[edit]

Heard was the final witness to testify in the six-week trial. When asked how the Depp-Waldman statements had effected her, Heard responded, "I am harassed, humiliated, threatened, ... people want to kill me, and they tell me so everyday..."[122] When asked about effects of alleged threats by Depp, Heard recounted, "My friends have to live with a set of unspoken rules ... that I have to follow, my friends have to follow, for me not to have a panic attack or triggering event."[122]

Heard was cross-examined on issues such as whether she had tipped off TMZ to show up at the courthouse as she obtained a restraining order against Depp, to which she replied, "What actual survivor of domestic violence wants that?"[123] Heard also testified of reasons why she wrote the op-ed stating "I know how many people will come out and say whatever for him. ... I was speaking to that phenomenon ... and people love currying favor for powerful men." When asked, "Curry favor and commit perjury in this courtroom, for a powerful man?" Heard responded, "I have seen people do this time and time again."[123]
