Johnny Depp, in the classroom the story of the severed finger. The witness: "Blood and glass everywhere, I found the piece"
At the trial against Amber Heard the reconstruction of one of the most violent episodes of their marriage
The process involving Johnny Depp and the now ex-wife and fellow actress Amber Heard is getting more and more "splattered".
In court in Fairfax, Virginia, where he dragged her in a $ 50 million libel suit, came the story of the Hollywood star's severed finger. A story that dates back to March 7, 2015, when Depp and Heard lived in a house on an island in Australia during the filming of the fifth film in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" saga.
On a new day of trial, Ben King, the manager of the house, the scene of one of the most violent arguments between Depp and Heard, sat on the witness stand.
When he arrived, he said, the house was in dire condition, with damage estimated at $ 50,000: damaged furniture, a shattered marble staircase, a collapsed ping-pong table and lots of broken glass on the floor. "Nothing was intact," Heard "sobbed hysterically." According to Depp, she threw a bottle of vodka at him and caused him to lose a fingertip. According to Heard, he had injured himself by banging a phone against a wall.
While Depp's personal physician, David Kipper, "rummaged in the trash" in the kitchen, King found the severed piece of meat wrapped in a blood-soaked paper towel near a wet bar and placed it in a plastic bag to store. take him to the hospital.
"I honestly didn't feel the pain at first," Depp said. "What I felt was warmth and I felt like something was dripping down my hand. Then I looked down and realized that the tip of my finger had been severed, and I was looking directly at my protruding bones and the fleshy part of the inside of your finger. "
Depp sued Heard in March 2019: she, her version, slandered him by describing herself as a victim of domestic violence in a Washington Post editorial. The article, in which the actor was never actually mentioned, would have heavily damaged his career since, he reconstructs, after only two days he discovered that he had been made out of the Pirates of the Caribbean saga. But not only that: the actor claims to be the victim of physical and verbal abuse by Amber Heard.
