Why give this abuser a platform? Someone needs to get fired.
He lost the case in the UK. The judge ruled the article that Depp is a wifebeater is substantially true and 12 incidents of violence towards Heard occurred. He used the DARVO strategy to convince the jury in Virginia the opposite; he shifted the blame to his victim, it's difficult because people often think victims who fight back to survive are the agressors (reactive abuse). She was in her twenties when she first met Depp (only 25, he was 45) and he had his security guards to help him. Even hired a nurse to give her drugs, to keep her calm. He admitted to headbutting her in the UK, this is one reason he lost..there were also texts of his assistent being horrified that he kicked her on the plane.
It's crazy because the jury member in Virginia said he believed it was mutual abuse (which is a myth because there is often an imbalance of power and actually proves her statements were not defamation). He didn't believe in divorce and said the only way out is death. He also threatened her with a broken bottle, said he would carve her face. He texted a friend that he wanted to drown her and rxpe her corpse. More info:

Depp is also very misogynistic, racist and praises rapists and pedophiles in the industry. There are so many Jack Sparrow fans who think he's an innocent puppy. He will always find a way to get away with bad behavior: He recently punched a location manager on set and when he refused to sign a NDA they fired him (the guy got harassed by fans online and decided to settle the lawsuit and move on with this life). Such a great guy! Let's put him in the show.
