The website put a stop to a fundraiser that claimed it would be assisting with Heard's legal fees following the verdict in her defamation suit.

I believe Johnny’s attorneys succeeded in getting the jury to overlook the key issue of Freedom of Speech and ignore evidence that was so conclusive that we won in the UK.” It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly shamed and humiliated. “I’m heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband,” Heard’s statement reads.

Amber Heard can't pay $8.35m damages to Johnny Depp, says her ... (The Independent)

Ms Heard's lawyer, Elaine Bredehoft, says she will appeal the verdict.

Defamation fits in due to the required findings of malice or intent to injure another.” “What separates Heard’s case from regular tort cases is the finding of intent,” he told the news outlet. The actress said under cross-examination that she “fully intends” to honour her pledge. “The disappointment I feel today is beyond words,” Ms Heard wrote. Defamation is considered an intentional tort, meaning the misconduct was carried out with malice or willfullness. Judge Penney Azcarate later reduced the punitive damages to $350,000, the maximum allowed in the state of Virginia, where the trial took place. Those funds, she had previously said, were intended to be equally split as donations to the American Civil Liberties Union and the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.

Amber Heard '100 Percent' Plans on Appealing Johnny Depp Trial ... (Us Weekly)

Johnny Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard, which concluded on Wednesday, June 1 — exclusive details.

“The disappointment I feel today is beyond words,” Heard said in a statement to Us at the time. I hope we arrive at a point in which it’s normalized to not want a ring in order to have a crib. In addition to filing an eventual appeal, Heard is hoping to focus her priorities on her family following the trial. But I am sadder still that I seem to have lost a right I thought I had as an American — to speak freely and openly.” “She is not able to comprehend that she lost.” Depp’s punitive award was reduced to $350,000 since Virginia state law set a cap on the maximum amount that can be awarded.

Depp v. Heard: What the trial and verdict say about our culture (Mashable)

Johnny Depp won a chilling victory in his case against ex-wife Amber Heard.

And none of us should feel good about living in a society that celebrates that kind of humiliation. Those experts are already concerned about what the trial and verdict, and the public circus around it, will mean for victims. The jury also found that Depp's former lawyer defamed Heard in one instance and awarded $2 million for her defamation countersuit. Disturbingly, internet creators flocked to cover the trial and cashed in. This time, a jury that hadn't been sequestered decided that when Heard, without even naming her ex-husband, wrote in a 2018 Washington Post op-ed about becoming a "public figure representing domestic abuse," she defamed Depp, and did so with malice. Never mind that a judge in the UK found evidence for Heard's claims of domestic abuse and dismissed Depp's libel lawsuit against a paper that described him as a "wife beater."

After trial, insiders say comeback will be 'very hard' for Amber Heard (Page Six)

After humiliation in the courtroom in her trial with Johnny Depp, Amber Heard is now facing ostracism in Hollywood.

An onlooker in the courtroom told Page Six: “After the verdict, Amber got up and stormed off. She showed no contrition even when things unravelled in court.” In 2016, she was prosecuted for illegally bringing her dogs into the country. “I made a phone call, and I spoke to three upper echelon Warner executives: Kevin Tsujihara, Sue Kroll, Greg Silverman.” In a statement seen by Page Six, Howell, Henriquez’s former employer at charity The Art of Elysium, claimed: “Paige told me that Amber said Elon was controlling, abusive and that she was in a legal battle with him over the rights to embryos they had created together. But this only prompted Depp’s lawyer, Camille Vasquez, to tell the jury at the end of the trial: “This is a woman who burns bridges. “Amber can work again, [but] I’d think it will be more the indie route. No matter what happens #istandwithamberheard.” My heart goes out to her during these difficult times. The SpaceX boss was also named on Heard’s witness list for the trial, but never testified. We are not enemies.” “We do not speak.

Johnny Depp trial verdict against Amber Heard was a Pyrrhic victory (NBCNews.com)

Amber Heard lost to Johnny Depp in his defamation suit against her Washington Post op-ed. But Depp didn't win.

But the social media frenzy surrounding her stumbles took on a life of its own — complete with TikTok videos mocking Heard with “turd” emojis and championing Depp like he was Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. “The award for Best Actor in a Defamation Lawsuit goes to Johnny Depp for fooling the jury, judge, media and the court of public opinion,” a woman in divorce proceedings with a high-conflict partner told me. As movements to reform our family court system grow louder, this celebrity trial brought the pervasive power dynamic usually behind closed doors right into our living rooms. I mean how do you look good?” Romano asked, citing the dirty laundry aired in London, where Depp lost a 2020 libel case against The Sun newspaper for calling him a “wife beater.” Then, Romano said, Depp proceeded to “bring it back to shore” with this lawsuit in a Virginia court. “Even when you win, you lose,” Domenic Romano, a top business and entertainment attorney in New York City told me. As a divorce coach and advocate for abuse victims, I know a lot of women who were rocked by the jury siding with Johnny Depp in his defamation suit against ex-wife Amber Heard.

What attorneys say about Amber Heard's options to appeal Johnny ... (The Independent)

Ms Heard's attorney Elaine Bredehoft has said her client will appeal the verdict, which largely favoured Mr Depp. Clémence Michallon speaks to three ...

“That isn’t realistic in a case like this: People go home to their families, and the case is everywhere. “It makes sense that the jury on a highly publicized case like this should be sequestered, not just ‘instructed’ to not go on the Internet or talk to anyone about the case,” she said. “The jurors basically said we don’t believe [Ms Heard] was telling the truth about her experience with Johnny Depp, namely being an abuse survivor, but we also believe that [Mr Depp]’s lawyer, who was acting as his agent, went too far and falsely stated that [Ms Heard] and her friends staged the scene of an alleged attack,” he said. It also seems [Ms Heard’s team] took issue with the fact that the UK ruling, where a judge found multiple instances of abuse by [Mr Depp], could not be presented to the jury.” “On the other hand, that is an assumption. “On one hand, sure you can ask how they could not have been exposed and tainted by the coverage, the crowds, social media,” Mr Weber said. “[Ms Heard]’s lawyers contend that relevant evidence that could have affected the outcome of the case was excluded. So Amber and her friends spilled a little wine and roughed the place up, got their stories straight under the direction of a lawyer and publicist, and then placed a second call to 911.” That is why making objections and motions during the course of the trial is so important to preserve these issues for appeal,” he said. Ms Bloom also saw possible problems in the ways in which jurors awarded damages: After they first announced they had a verdict, they were sent back, as it appeared they had omitted to award some or all of the necessary damages. She did not have to win that she was a victim of multiple incidents, or even significant incidents. Jurors also found that Ms Heard was defamed by one of three statements in her countersuit.

Author Joyce Maynard Reveals Why She 'Couldn't Turn Off' Johnny Depp/Amber Heard Trial.

“No such acknowledgement could be found in the testimony of Amber Heard.” While allowing that Depp is an actor, Maynard was not convinced by Heard’s demeanor or answers. The jury’s decision affirms that domestic violence takes many forms, and that as much as it has been women who stand in greatest jeopardy of being its victims, a woman may also be the instigator or aggressor. Depp deserved cancellation if he truly did the things Heard accused him of doing. Given that background, Maynard came into the trial coverage with her own prejudices. Maynard knows about tempestuous relationships.

Johnny Depp-Amber Heard verdict redefines victimhood that's ... (ThePrint)

Truth, despite the best intentions, is often the biggest casualty. It is precisely this aspect that the Depp-Heard face-off has put sharp focus on.

All it takes to blame and shame a party is for someone to put forward a uni-dimensional version of the truth. The verdict signals that mere gender, race, colour or any such factor cannot be proof of guilt or innocence by itself. But the jury also held that one of Depp’s former attorney in calling Amber Heard’s abuse allegation a hoax, had also defamed the actress. The present era of wokeness does allow a very one-sided version of wrongdoing and victimhood amplified by social media. It was such a long shot and without any spin doctors controlling the narrative, it could have gone horribly wrong for him. However, in this instance, as details of the Depp-Heard relationship were peeled off layer by layer, what was revealed was an Alpha-male celebrity victim — Johnny Depp.
