EXPLAINER: Johnny Depp's wild testimony, cross-examination (Coast Reporter)

For three days, Johnny Depp has been testifying in a libel trial that, at least in theory, is about whether Amber Heard defamed him in a 2018 newspaper ...

Heard's attorney repeatedly asked Depp whether he was responsible for drawing a penis on a painting inside his home shortly after the actor said Heard severed his finger. But texts he sent to the actor Paul Bettany at the time referenced drinking half a bottle of whiskey, “a thousand Red Bull vodkas” and two bottles of Champagne before the flight. Depp said he used the resulting blood to write on his walls and recount lies in which he had caught Heard. At the hospital, Depp said he lied to protect Heard and told the doctors that he had injured himself. “Drawing a penis on a painting was not the first thing on my mind,” Depp testified. Heard’s lawyers had sought to have the case tried in California, where the actors reside. “It was sort of a rapid-fire, sort of endless parade of insults,” Depp said. He said she once threw two bottles of vodka at him, the second of which exploded and severed his finger to the point where bone was exposed. The judge there found that Depp assaulted Heard on a dozen occasions and put her in fear for her life multiple times. The insults escalated into full-fledged circular arguments from which there was “no way in or out,” Depp said. The two met in 2009, got married in 2015 and Heard filed for divorce a year later. They started dating a few years later, with Depp portraying the early part of their relationship as a classic Hollywood romance. Heard’s lawyers have argued that Heard’s opinion piece was accurate and didn't defame him.
