Amber HeardI stand by the testimony she gave during Johnny Depp‘s trial.
Two weeks ago, a Virginia jury found Heard liable for defaming Depp. Aquaman actress sat down with NBC News’ Savannah Guthrie to reflect on a case that captivated much of the world.
“Every single day, I passed three, four, sometimes six city blocks lined with people holding signs saying, ‘Burn the witch. Heard said, “Death to Amber.” “After three-and-a-half weeks, I stood and witnessed a packed courtroom full of passionate Captain Jack Sparrow fans, vocal and energized.
She added, “This was the most embarrassing and terrible thing that I’ve ever gone through.” I have never felt so disconnected from my humanity. I was less human than anyone else.”
Heard was on the witness stand for several days during May and stated that Depp had physically and psychologically assaulted her. Depp refuted the allegations before his lawyer Camille VasquezHeard claimed in closing arguments that Heard assumed “the role for a life time” as a victim of domestic abuse.
