It's hard to say. They're both *very* good actors. So there's that.
Next, you have heard on tape saying "I hit you Johnny. I didn't effing deck you, I hit you." So there's *audio* proof her telling him, she hit him. So there's that.
Is there audio proof of him doing things to her physically unwanted? I don't know.
I think they both abused each other honestly. And on the stand, they better have brushed up on their acting abilities.
If it would have been me in his position, I wouldn't have run to a closet or bathroom, I would have grabbed my stuff, and left. Then I would have come to the realization that this type of relationship just won't work out, and it's time to end it. But he stuck around. And again, when she was done yelling at him, did he turn to alcohol/drugs and then yell and physically hurt her?
Those are things I don't know because I've only been watching clips on Youtube, and when I see the thumbnails of her face, it just comes off as fake.
My final answer Regis, is this: B) She was the initiator, and egged Johnny on, Johnny may have gone after her, but without seeing all of the coverage, I can't give a true answer on that aspect.
@twiigss he was also telling her that he hated her and early on in the marriage. Why the hell didn’t they divorce early on instead of dragging it out until now?
In all honesty. I think he thought because she was young and he was who he is, that she would go along with whatever he said. Unfortunately older men can be a bit domineering in these kinds of relationships. Where all the pisces women I've met are quite vocal and dominant so it was a recipe for disaster.
Personally she has told a lot of lies. And even her elaborating about him showering her and her family with gifts was an exaggeration. I'm not saying he didn't but she definitely expected it. Having her friends and family living in his penthouses for free and that's why she threatened him.
He may have been violent when drugged up and I think she retaliated too. But her filming and photographing him wasn't done with good intention.
I don't like to say one is better than the other but I do believe she set out to rinse him hi and dry because he had a drug and alcohol issue.
@Mellowgirl He was warned before he married her that she was a gold digger and apparently he didn’t care then. She may have targeted him due to his alcohol and drug use, attempting to blackmail him into giving her everything she asked for and divorcing him. Maybe her plans didn’t work out. I don’t think he is innocent. Hung out with Marilyn Manson too much and have matching pedo tattoos. He’s probably drinking and drugging to blunt his conscience.
@Mellowgirl you don’t have to agree with me. To make it big in Hollywood these people are selling their souls to Satan and they do this stuff to get into the club. If they become full-blown Satanists they will do it on their own free time too. And I’m not saying it because I do or don’t like Johnny Depp, it applies to most of Hollywood if they want to get more and bigger contracts. Even goes for the movie script writers. Most of their good script writers were leaving after 2000 because of this. They refused to go along with it.
@mysteryespresso Well Heards lawyers alone are annoying af and objecting to their own witnesses.
And no one believes her cause there’s no police report to support her claims, no hospital reports, nothing. She also has a personality disorder.
Plus Depp will at least stand up there and say “yep, i def was drinking at 8am bc I’m addict and abused myself my whole life and that’s just how it was.” Her? She denies just about everything even with recordings of her being the exact person Johnny said she was/is. Including her predicting no one would believe he was ever abused and continuing to demean him calling him a baby etc.
It’s at least possible since there are recordings of her admitting she abused him. He should win, both Vanessa Paradis and Winona Ryder stood up for him.
