this trial has done nothing for male victims and is pure litigation abuse, like an ex who won't stop taking you to court over child custody.

MarshaBradyo · 31/05/2022 16:24

I haven’t really been following it

Are the jury in deliberation?

AdamRyan · 31/05/2022 16:40

Following

paperflowers55 · 31/05/2022 16:49

"You know how many men are starting to sarcastically call their wives/girlfriends ‘Amber’ or ‘Miss Heard’ when they are upset or angry?

"I keep getting messages and comments from women saying this is happening to them in arguments with spouse or exes. The damage is done," she wrote."

How pathetic you want it? Yes.

I aprecciate dr Jessica Taylors input(no sarcasm)

That's a good article
I like she says that JD is no role model for abused men given how he treats wimen

paperflowers55 · 31/05/2022 22:20

how dare women show any hint of emotion ? ugh.
anyway jury went home for the day. it will resume tomorrow

Miscfeminista · 31/05/2022 23:26

@paperflowers55 did you watch that anywhere? I figured jury is in their room without cameras so there wouldn’t be anything to watch, did they say anything?

oh hello ! morning !
I follow Deuxmoi on Reddit, it;s the only subreddit where they believe her actually. I just refresh the verdict watch thread. They have yet to make one for today but I will update here once they reach it.
I don't even like her in particular but I do think she is a victim of a smear campaign and I do believe her story is at least 90% true. Her witnesses were very credible esp iO.
Not sure if anyone has read the Independent today but basically some men have resorted to calling their OH "Ambers" when they get upset or angry. It's horrible what this trial has done to society

I agree 100% and there's some great work on DeuxMoi to counter the disinformation out there

Miscfeminista · 01/06/2022 13:09

I admire people having patience to write all those, here’s a good post from r/Deuxmoi :

“Depp claims he lost Pirates of the Caribbean due to claims of abuse by Heard. Disney executives reveal it was actually the Rolling Stones article he requested that caused the removal.” - I can absolutely believe this article had way worse impact on him than her no name op ed

“Depp claims he lost the UK trial against The Sun because the judge believed Heard would donate her settlement money to a non-profit. The Judge explicitly states this was immaterial to the case.”- if only they emphasised this during trial and put it to rest

And the verdict post clarifies nicely what to expect:

“We don’t know when the verdict is - it could happen today, or tomorrow, or in a few weeks time, though most likely scenario is a few days.“

What other nuggets you found on other online places? (I’m usually mostly offline, randomly joined MN after I got intrigued in the trial)

The form the jury has to complete has been made available online, it’s several pages and 40+ questions long

Miscfeminista · 01/06/2022 13:43

Someone mentioned that oh as soon as the jury asked for clarification(because they asked whether it refers to just title or whole piece-judge and lawyers agreed it's the title)it means they are going to spend too much time on thinking what means what and then basically get lost in detail instead of focusing on the matter, something along those lines as if they'll make sloppy verdict. It may have just been pissy Depp fan comment who would ignore questions in order to proclaim him innocent somehow, don't know

Wow this is a joke

AH waits there for verdict and he goes on to have a concert that Kate Moss and Sharon Osbourne attend?? This is really becoming like a bad drama sorry

Miscfeminista · 01/06/2022 19:05

According to poster on previous thread, verdict at 8 this evening(UK time) 😱😱😱

OP posts:
Redshoeblueshoe · 01/06/2022 19:05

Verdict due to be announced at 8pm tonight. (UK time)

Redshoeblueshoe · 01/06/2022 19:06

Ha Miscfeminista - that was me, this has come from Sky News

QuebecBagnet · 01/06/2022 19:09

Just read that verdict has been reached.

paperflowers55 · 01/06/2022 19:45

I thought he said his career and life were over. I wouldn't wish him on my worst enemy. Files lawsuit and isn't even there for the verdict

winterchills · 01/06/2022 19:48

Following!!

Agrudge · 01/06/2022 19:48

Fingers crossed for JD

Redshoeblueshoe · 01/06/2022 20:07

Well that was a tease

ldontWanna · 01/06/2022 20:21

Regardless of the verdict, AH is well and truly fucked . If he wins, his fans will be all "Ha! I knew it! Liar liar!" . If he doesn't, they'll accuse everyone involved of sexism and misandry and hate and attack her even more for ruining a "good man".
