Before becoming an actor, Depp reportedly wanted to be a musician. He also testified on the stands about his early musical aspirations, noting that he was not getting the success he wanted, prompting him to turn to acting.

Depp and ex-wife Heard have been in district court in Fairfax, Virginia, since April 11. For six weeks, the testimony focused on the details of the alleged abuse that Heard said she suffered at the hands of Depp. Heard outlines more than a dozen specific instances where she says she was attacked by Depp.

Depp denies any physical or sexual abuse, and says Heard fabricated the claims to destroy Depp’s reputation. Legions of Depp’s online fans have focused on his belief that Heard has been untrue, and that this will determine the outcome.

But the case itself is a defamation claim. Depp sues Heard for defamation — for $50 million — in Fairfax County Circuit Court. In a December 2018 op-ed she described herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse” in The Washington Post .

Depp was never named in that article, but his lawyers say he was defamed nonetheless. Most articles discuss public policy as it relates to domestic violence, and Heard’s lawyers say they have a First Amendment right to weigh in.
