1. Amber Heard leaving court
STORYLINE:
Amber Heard is seen leaving court in Fairfax, Virginia Wednesday (13APRIL2022) after the second day of court proceedings for a libel lawsuit filed by ex-husband Johnny Depp.
Depp's neighbor testified that Heard had told him the movie star threw a phone at her and hit her inside the couple's Los Angeles penthouse.
But Isaac Baruch said he never noticed any evidence of abuse on Heard's face, both when he first saw her in the hallway or the next day in the sunlit lobby of their art deco-style building.
"She's got her face out like this to show me, and I'm looking, and I inspect her face," Baruch said of the encounter in May 2016. "And I don't see anything. ... I don't see a cut, a bruise, swelling, redness."
Baruch is the second witness called in the trial over Depp's allegations that Heard falsely portrayed him as a domestic abuser. Depp says that an opinion piece Heard wrote for The Washington Post in 2018 indirectly defamed him.
Heard refers to herself in the article as a "public figure representing domestic abuse." It doesn't name Depp. But his attorneys argue that it clearly referenced a restraining order that Heard sought in May 2016, right after Depp told her he wanted a divorce.
Depp denies any abuse.
