Barkin. He didn't throw the bottle at her and in her testimony changed it to "tossed"

Next question...

Read my post more carefully.

Rachel Pennington.

A freeloader leech who had the life of Riley and was hoping for a penthouse out of the divorce settlement. Didn't happen. Fell out with Heard. Didn't testify in Virginia. Relied on a 2019 video statement

Next question....

I can’t take this kind of nonsense seriously.

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 21:18

"when he allegedly assaulted a movie location manager?"

Depositions already in he's lying. Not on SM but the court docs from the courthouse same witness has 43 pictures of the event at the time.

Same freeloader who thought JD would lose this case and didn't turn up to court last time. Same freeloader looking for money who after said "assault" posted on Instagram the same night a selfie happy and smiling with JD. Oh and same freeloader who abused a black homeless woman using racial slurs for getting in his way. Filed complaint against JD two years after event thinking he could capitalise.

Next question....

"I can’t take this kind of nonsense seriously"

You don't think they took advantage of him. Living rent free, drinking his wine? They had a lot to protect. Oh and she surrounded herself with her friends and family in his penthouses and he paid all their bills. Horrible abusive man.

Come on!!

Also now they've lost all that. WHERE ARE THEY?

IrisVersicolor · 05/06/2022 21:26

All these mean people making up lies about poor Depp. So many of them.

I haven’t asked you any questions, I’m not interested.

ChuckBerrysBoots · 05/06/2022 20:28

Honestly don’t see the relevance of people most of us have never heard of vomiting their opinions all over Twitter, it’s weird.

There is no relevance. No idea why these are being posted.Confused

ChuckBerrysBoots · 05/06/2022 21:33

I agree with you that there were a lot of hangers-on taking advantage of Depp’s money and assets. In what way does it serve their interests to testify (or at least provide statements) in favour of Heard’s account?

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 21:33

Where have I said poor Depp. I think he has abused, reactively. Unfortunately in a court of law, he's an abuser. Then so am I

As for her, she quite frankly disgusts me. Her lies. Her leech friends, one of whom took advantage of his daughter by outing her LGBT status at age 16, for his own gain so he got kicked out. Good. But IO is bitter about that. Fucking creep. On any other MN thread that person would be annihilated for that!

Another witness. jD was angry. Well she was another freeloader Amber moved in without telling him. He was pissed off as he didn't know who she was. Came home to find a stranger in his house. But she testified she was "scared" of him as he was angry.

I would be too. Wouldn't you???

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 21:36

"There is no relevance. No idea why these are being posted"

It was posted earlier about Depp Bots and most of the anti Amber stuff was from that (as the rest of us are obviously mindless)

I posted those for balance. Except the pro Amber stuff is poisonous

The gravy train dumped them at the station?

"Your attempt to address Pennington vs Hicksville was not to say that you found one more convincing then the other, simply that Pennington was a friend of Heard and Heard lied, and that apparently is that. In fact she was a friend of both Heard and Depp."

Not really. She was Heard's friend and now ex-friend

"Are you saying that Pennington told barefaced lies in court? If so say so."

Rocky contradicted Amber about the events. I can't be sure she is lying or not. Are you saying Mr Hicksville is a liar?

"You can be all of those things, jealous, controlling, drunk and a pot head and still not be a wife beater or a rapist"

"You can, but in this case his ex wife says he was."

And his ex-wife is untrustworthy.

"Heard does not have an arrest for DV there is no crime of DV."

Pedantry. She was arrested for assault.

"Two exes spoke up for him, one against. Two other exes - not called to give evidence have said he used to smash places up and get into fights. He also had a list of ex agent, manager, friends who testified against him."

His first wife, Kate Moss, Winona Ryder and Vanessa Paradis all spoke very well of him. Only Barkin had anything negative to say and that was fairly mild.

"Whether he hit other partners is not actually the point: the issue is whether he hit this one."

Indeed. And the evidence was weak and relied on Amber being credible and honest. She failed at both.

Aspiringmatriarch · 05/06/2022 21:40

I posted to show there were dozens and dozens of tweets that were word for word identical. Not to show there are random people on Twitter with stupid opinions. Confused

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 21:42

Aspiring. Yes and hers are blue ticks. Totally different and blue ticks have weight on Twitter

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 21:45

"Heard does not have an arrest for DV there is no crime of DV."

Oh yes she does. Plus DUI as a minor (records closed) with a 4 year ban. That's a serious offence in the US meaning something more happened

And caught again, driving under this ban. Records show previous record in vehicular manslaughter.

She's virtuous. Poor amber

Dear God...I don't even know what to say. It's like this is your first time on the internet. 😭

"Ok @carolineshaw, I'm not going through another long post with replies again so let's agree to disagree. 👍"

That's fine. The posts can get rather long and exhausting after a point. Problem is the case is so complex.

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 21:52

Before anyone starts. The latest arrest in 2003 look at where they pull the first record from to know she was banned.

"Misc I'm getting the impression that if someone has a different view to you
then it's a case of every other man, woman and their dog can be disregarded."

Ain't that the truth.

They're either a man, a dick, a troll, a sexist, someone with internalised misogyny, a fangirl, a fanboy, a bot etc. etc.

I know, and in case it came across like that - I didn't mean it rudely. Just reached capacity for long back and forths. Smile

IrisVersicolor · 05/06/2022 22:23

Pennington was far more reliable than Hicksville guy.

She listed her experience of the abuse of Heard she had seen at first hand in a long and detailed statement.

And his ex-wife is untrustworthy.

Depp is as untrustworthy as they come.

If his ex bodyguards who sued him had been called, he would have been sunk.

He settled after they sued him over an 'intolerable' two year period when he “spiralled into a financial hurricane”.

They were forced to work '12 hour days, sometimes back-to-back shifts'. Their duties involved safeguarding Depp and others who were 'engaging in illegal activity'.

The “were constantly being used as drivers, driving back and forth at Depp's or his family's beckoning....asked repeatedly to drive vehicles that contained illegal substances, open containers and minors.”

“They were asked to monitor unstable individuals in Depp's life and entourage,'

'Often times [they] were forced to protect Depp from himself and his vices while in public, becoming caretakers for him”

'An incident at a local nightclub involved [them] alerting Depp of illegal substances visible on his face and person while preventing onlookers from noticing his condition.”

The men say they retired as a result of the 'toxic' and 'dangerous' work environment.

Trustworthy Depp eh?

Onthedunes · 05/06/2022 22:24

Has anyone any thoughts on Kathleen Zellner on this case who Depp hired as a legal consultant.

Also any thoughts on why Depp never asked for a pre nup before his marriage to Amber, does this in anyway show Depp's character or could this indicate a certain level of control Amber had.

Whilst Johhny had his addictions I think Amber found this useful to manipulate him financially. She seemed to be in control of who benefitted from his wealth, notably her allies.

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 22:28

I bet they will drop their cases as well. Free loaders who saw an opportunity.

Opportunity closed

Aspiringmatriarch · 05/06/2022 22:28

@Onthedunes He rang and fired her postnup lawyer so I don't think so. Apparently told her to fuck off (this is according to the lawyer). It was while they were in Australia.

TiddyTidTwo · 05/06/2022 22:32

"Also any thoughts on why Depp never asked for a pre nup before his marriage to Amber, does this in anyway show Depp's character or could this indicate a certain level of control Amber had"

This. Hence why she's so pissed he wanted a divorce. End of the gravy train. And her horrible friends who have since dumped her.

And she might have put on that TRO display but audio recordings show she went to his hotel room, obviously terrified of this abuser, trying to get him back. Then ends up taunting him again as she couldn't get her way.
