  • Lawsuit Johnny Depp's doctor says he found actor's finger at fight scene

The actor Johnny Depp offered these days his testimony in the trial against his ex-wife, also the actress Amber Heard.

The interpreter of

Pirates of the Caribbean

filed a lawsuit against his wife for two years

alleging defamation and requesting 50 million dollars

to repair the social damage that, according to him, the accusation of mistreatment with which

Heard put in his eye caused him of the public hurricane

.

During the process, which is taking place in the state of Virginia and is being broadcast live around the world,

Depp assured that he has never hit any woman.

In the different sessions, the American has maintained the same line, in which he warns of the psychological discomfort caused by these accusations for which he asks for compensation.

In this Wednesday's session,

Johnny Depp has gone further in his defense.

The actor and musician has assured that far from attacking his ex-wife, it

was she who subjected him to constant physical and psychological abuse.

Giving him blows, slaps and shoves during the angry discussions that the couple had at their worst stage.

The interpreter, who defined an idyllic beginning of a relationship with a "nice and intelligent" woman, reports that the relationship soon became abusive and full of

humiliating behavior full of "intimidation" and "degrading insults".

"It seemed like pure hatred towards me," Depp said.

"If I stayed to argue, eventually, I was sure it would turn into violence, and many times it did,"

Subsequently, at the request of his defense, the actor

proceeded to describe various violent episodes that

Amber Heard allegedly perpetrated against him, sometimes in front of his children.

"It could start with a slap. It could start with a shove.

It could start with throwing a TV remote at my head. It could be throwing a glass of wine in my face," he listed.

According to Depp's account, to defend himself against these outbursts of anger, he used to lock himself in the bathroom or go away from her.

However,

he maintains that he never hit Amber Heard.

He wasn't even in his own defense of it.

The interpreter also points to her ex-partner for defamation of her when she wrote an article in the

Washington Post

accusing him of gender violence and defining herself as a survivor of this abuse.

The actor requests 50 million dollars for the power that this article published in 2018 had. Although he did not use the name of Johnny Depp, according to the actor's lawyer, Benjamin Chew, it was clear in his story that it was about him

and that his writing it was meant to tarnish his image.

The

Hollywood star claims this compensation for the erosion that this writing entailed in his film career.

Heard claims that she only exercised her right to freedom of expression by

telling what she believes to be the truth of a marriage to "a public figure who represents domestic abuse."

Meanwhile, he continues to defend her version with the help of her lawyer in a trial that has not yet been seen for sentencing, since it is estimated to last about six weeks.
