Actor Johnny Depp wins his defamation suit against his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard. The jury found unanimously that Heard's published op-ed describing her as a "public figure representing domestic abuse” tarnished Depp's reputation and damaged his career.
Amber Heard did win the second of her three counts in a $100 million counterclaim. The jury found that Depp's attorney Adam Waldman defamed Heard when he told the Daily Mail that Heard had set up Depp in a hoax when police answered a domestic call at their home in May 2016.
The jury awarded Heard $2 million dollars. Depp was awarded $10.35 million: $10 million in compensatory damages and $350,000 in punitive damages. Deliberations took about 13 hours.
