Trial of Amber and Johnny is stopped!
The trial of the decade this week is on hold. We checked out what that means for the conflicting parties, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard.
All eyes are currently on the court in Virginia, but this week we will not hear from Johnny Depp and his ex-wife Amber Heard nothing.
The trial of the decade is on hold this week for a somewhat bizarre reason. Namely, Judge Penney Azcarate is participating in a conference, which is why she cannot be in court.
According to sources, Azcarte warned before the trial that the trial and the conference overlapped, and although details of the conference have not been released, it is learned that it is not related to the trial. Legal experts believe that this break is practically a gift to Depp, but some also say that Amber could benefit more because the jury now has a few days to think about her testimony.
New York City Family and Divorce Lawyer Sandra Radna said:'Maybe Johnny Depp's team, no matter what they do, won't be able to change the jury's opinion anymore because they've been sitting with it for a week now,' she explained.
Trial expert counsel Jill Huntley Taylor disagrees, saying this is an opportunity for Depp's lawyers to plan cross-examination to the last detail.'I think there's a real strategic advantage in that,' Huntley Taylor told The New York Post.
It should be reminded that Amber Heard is also not allowed to consult with her team of lawyers during this break because technically her testimony is still ongoing, which is an additional challenge to her team.
Recall, many believe that Amber Heard, in one sentence, or more precisely in one name, completely ruined or even destroyed any chance of coming out of the trial with her ex, Johnny Depp, as the winner.
Namely, while the jury was talking about the first time she hit Depp, Heard insinuated that Depp once pushed his ex-girlfriend Kate Moss down the stairs. That moment of testimony went viral, especially because of the reaction of Johnny Depp and his legal team who couldn’t hide their delight at hearing the supermodel’s name.
But what does that mean for the trial? Some media pointed out that Amber’s mention of Kate Moss opens the door for Johnny’s lawyers to bring to court the details of her former relationships, especially those with painter and photographer Tasya Van Ree because Amber ended up in police custody. Police intervened after Amber physically assaulted the then-girl at the airport.
