"If you even listen to the extent of the abuse she's done to him and what he's been through in his childhood, as a decent human being you won't come out with that."

"Hope he gets justice."
@Ally1889 commented:
"There’s only two people who know the truth here, Depp and Heard (she’s yet to give her side) - both are giving evidence under oath so one is lying. Who does the courthouse believe? Personally listening to the evidence, so far I’m on #JohnnyDepp side."

"I don’t believe that he beat her. He is a flawed human being, but that doesn’t make him a wife basher. Her pals and family freeloaded off him. The gravy train stopped. His testimony was authentic."
@georgiadawes added:
"So embarrassing. It seems clear that JD simply cannot accept that AH called it quits, that she was sick and tired of his drugging, drinking, out of control behaviour."
