Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's war goes online
It all started with a Twitter account, which is currently closed, by spreading the false news. It said that Amber Heard had admitted that the alleged assaults perpetrated by her ex-husband, Johnny Depp, were fabricated and that she was the only one who had attacked her partner. This news, based on another from the British Daily mail portal, which said that the Aquaman actress had publicly admitted to being Depp's aggressor in some leaked audios.

Peeeero, es de hace mucho tiempo en realidad y hace referencia a los audios donde Amber admite haberlo golpeado. Los cuales ya todos escuchamos mil veces. pic.twitter.com/TnVCafOYuv
Creo que se le está dando muy poca voz a lo de Johnny Depp, literalmente su carrera fue casi destrozada por algo que no hizo, se merece volver a tener la reputación que tenía antes. Y recalcar que por cosas como la de Amber Heard, verdaderas víctimas pierden credibilidad

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard continue their war in court
For now, the judicial war continues and it will be in July when the beginning of the end begins. The latest update is that Amber Heard's legal team has filed an appeal to have Depp's defamation lawsuit filed in a US court dismissed and avoid going to trial. The reason that his lawyers argue is that, because the actor lost his lawsuit against The sun also for defamation, this sentence handed down by the United Kingdom courts should also apply in the United States.
Johnny Depp's attorney, Benjamin Chew, has called this move a "desperate attempt" on the part of the actress. The lawyer also recalled that Heard's legal team had already tried to have the claim dismissed up to three times in the last two years. At the moment it is estimated that the trial will last about a month and that the verdict will be delivered in the spring of 2022.
