Amber Heard Claims Piece of Evidence Not Shown in Courtroom

Hollywood star Amber Heard claimed that a piece of evidence, which was not allowed in the courtroom, during her trial against ex-husband Johnny Depp, could have changed the verdict.

The actress' statements came during her talk with Savannah Guthrie for NBC News.

"There's a binder worth of years of notes dating back to 2011 from the very beginning of my relationship that were taken by my doctor, who I was reporting the abuse to."

"Her notes represented years — years — of real-time explanations of what was going on," She added.

The notes expressed that the actress told her doctors that Depp "hit her" and "threw her on the floor" in 2012 and, he "ripped her nightgown" and "threw her on the bed" eight months after the first incident.

Heard shortly continued that Depp "threw her against a wall and threatened to kill her" in 2013.

Early this month, Depp on Wednesday won his multimillion-dollar defamation case against his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard.

After less than three days of deliberation, the seven-person jury handed down the verdict in Virginia and found that Depp had been defamed by three statements in a 2018 Washington Post op-ed she wrote about her experience with domestic abuse and described herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse”.

Depp was seeking $50 million in damages, but the jury has awarded him $15 million — $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages.

However, Judge Penney Azcarate reduced the punitive damages figure to $350,000, the maximum allowed in the state, which makes Depp’s total haul around $10.4 million.
