'Brutal, ridiculous and FALSE': Johnny Depp pours his heart on SIX YEARS of waiting for the 'truth'
The Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial is nearing its end and it has been a wild ride. Both sides have brought a lot in their defense and it's up to the jury to decide who's right and who's wrong. On May 25, Wednesday, Depp was called into the witness box to answer some burning questions. When asked what it's been like to hear Heard's testimony, he wasted no time in calling it 'brutal and all false'.
The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor said, "It's insane to hear heinous accusations of violence, sexual violence that she's attributed to me, that she's accused me of. I don't think anyone enjoys having to split themselves open and tell the truth but there are times when it just simply has to because it's gotten out of control. Horrible. Ridiculous, humiliating, ludicrous, painful, savage, unimaginably brutal, cruel and all false. And all false." The 58-year-old actor continued, "I have never in my life committed sexual battery, physical abuse, all these outlandish, outrageous stories of me committing these things and living with it for six years and waiting to be able to bring the truth out." Depp was adamant about denying everything in the 'Aquaman' actress' testimony.

During this trial, both sides accused each other of their business and financial loss. Heard even went as far as to say that she almost lost her 'Aquaman 2' role because of Depp. Continuing his statement in the high-tension defamation trial, the actor continued, "So this is not easy for any of us, I know that, but no matter what happens I did tell the truth and I have spoken up for what I've been carrying on my back reluctantly for six years."

Johnny Depp and Kate Moss debunk rumors by Amber Heard
In an attempt at Depp's alleged character assassination, Heard testified on May 25, Wednesday, she had heard a rumor that during a trip to Jamaica with his then-girlfriend Kate Moss, Depp pushed her down the stairs. This didn't sit well with Depp's legal team and they called in Moss to explain the incident. She simply explained that Depp had left the hotel they were at and that she slipped down the wooden stairs. Moreover, it was Depp who came running to her and made sure she got medical assistance.

Depp went on to address the rumor himself. He said, "As Kate Moss testified, many many years ago, and what exactly happened is what she said happened. I recall speaking with Miss Heard about that very incident because of the downpouring of rain because it was raining very heavily the day Kate slipped. I recalled the story to her. Miss Heard took the story and turned it into a very ugly incident all in her mind. There was never a moment where I pushed Kate down any set of stairs yet she's spewed this three times before." The trial is almost at its end and the whole world is waiting to see the outcome.
