Elaine Bredehoft, one of Heard's lawyers, detailed the alleged abuse in her opening statement in Fairfax County Circuit Court. "She loved the side of Johnny that we see in the movies -- the charismatic one, the charming one, the generous one," Bredehoft said."That's the man she fell in love with.Ben Rottenborn, another lawyer for Heard, told the jury that"behind the red carpets, behind the fame, behind the money, behind the pirate costumes, you're going to see who that man really is."
Christi Dembrowski, Depp's sister and personal manager, was the first witness to testify, telling the court she was"scared" when he decided to marry Heard because they did not have a prenuptial agreement. "She said, 'Dior, why would Dior want to do business with you? They're about class and they're about style and you don't have style,'" she said.
"Hollywood studios don't want to deal with the public backlash from hiring someone accused of abuse," he said."A false allegation can devastate a career."
When he is a rich celebrity, those snakes will seek wherever opportunity to nail a slice of the cakes from him. Pity him.
