Nick Wallis was the first journalist to break the news that Johnny Depp had lost his libel claim against NGN at the High Court in London in July 2020.

That hadn't been the plan. When Nick started live tweeting the case from within the courtroom he became the inside track for interested followers around the world. Now Nick is travelling to Virginia to see if he can follow the second instalment of this extraordinary confrontation.

Nick will be recording outside the court (no electronic devices are allowed inside the courtroom on this occasion!), speaking to those around him, and summarising each day's proceedings in a daily edition of this podcast.

In the middle of this trial will be 10 days of live examination and cross-examination of the two famous faces at the centre of this case. A jury will ultimately decide the outcome, but this podcast will be your daily digest from the courtroom in the celebrity trial of the century.

    Johnny WINS Depp v Heard

    Johnny WINS Depp v Heard

    On Wednesday the jury announced their verdict to Fairfax County Court, where Nick was eagerly waiting.

    They have unanimously agreed that Amber Heard's 2018 Washington Post article was written with defamatory intent, malice and crucially was totally untrue.




    In this final episode, Nick debriefs you on the moment the jury delivered their verdict, speaks to fans around the court and catches up with some familiar faces from the park bench.

    And now we wait…

    And now we wait…

    The podcast comes full circle as we end with the same park bench guest we first started with, Natasha Miller - a Johnny Depp supporter from Colorado who made it into court every single day of this trial bar 3.




    Nick and Natasha - who first met on jury selection day 7 weeks ago - discuss the final day of court where we heard closing arguments and the jury received their instructions. The pair also reflect on the process as a whole - the people they’ve met, the personal journeys they’ve been on and their thoughts about the verdict.




    But with court now wrapped and the jury busy deliberating, all we can do is wait…

    “A battle of the experts”

    “A battle of the experts”

    The trial starts to wrap with today being the last day in court before closing arguments and jury instructions tomorrow, and Nick discusses the day’s events with Angenette Levy of the Law and Crime Network.




    The pair recapped the 3 experts who appeared as rebuttal witnesses - an orthopaedic surgeon, a meta data expert and a psychologist - as well as Amber Heard herself. 




    Nick will be back in 24 hours with his final podcast update before the verdict - which is thought to be sometime next week.

    Amber Turd?

    Amber Turd?

    As Amber Herd enters Fairfax County Court you can hear the chants of; "Amber Turd". On today's Park Bench interview, after Day 22 of the trial Nick sits down to chat to Priscilla, who has come dressed as a giant turd. 

    Has the trial been reduced to a circus? Does she think her actions dissuade DV victims from coming forward? And does it bother her what Amber thinks of the greeting?

    The end of the trial gets closer, and the Park Bench interviews are definitely getting weirder.

    We're into the final week of evidence in the Depp v Heard trial at Fairfax County Court in Virginia.

ILuvLucey ,

SLOW DOWN Sir!

I love & adore YOU & this podcast. However, you deliver the content as though the listener (or someone) has given you a cut off time or some sort of standard in the like. I like to listen to podcasts as I relax and do ordinary tasks around the house, but YOU sir, (in the most respectful way ever) will not allow that with your Sonic speed conversation. Chillll bro! We still still listen if the episode lasts longer than 2.2 minutes. In facts, I would prefer a slower pace. Otherwise, you’re magic! 😉

Thoughts

Have sat in the galley and have seen the jurors and their responses and sometimes they are very different then what’s reported. One particular one tends to nap often. That said, I went into the trial unbiased. I’ve only seen one film between the two of them. I have to say, I do believe Depp was the victim of abuse. I believe she was the instigator. I’m not saying Depp didn’t react but there is zero evidence from police, from body guards, from the nurse and dr that she had any injury. The pictures shown in the court were not taken in full light. They were darkened to produce shadow. Her testimony does not match any photos. Also, she towers over him in heels and the are about the same height and stature. Her chair is also tilted so she can constantly look at him. He has been coloring from the very first day. He cannot look at her which aligns with trauma. I like the breakdown. I do think there are biased guests like the therapist Jessica. The minute you go in biased you turn on white noise to the other side which, I believe, is a disservice to the two in court.
