(1) Is Amber a "honey pot" used to destroy Depp's career? Depp is so loved especially by children and perhaps the Hollywood moguls couldn't "control" Depp and thus wanted to bring him down. Look what they did to Mel Gibson. And then when River Phoenix overdosed in Depp's nightclub could also have been a setup. Of course, this is highly speculative. (2) Note the styles of questioning between Depp's and Heard's lawyers. Depp's lawyers ask questions up front (did you, have you) whereas Heard's lawyers give presumptive narratives that end with question tags (correct? isn't it, didn't you) that "insert" their story into the jurors' minds. Only part of what they insinuate is true. Depp, in fact, calls them out on this occasionally. As an actor, he "listens" very carefully. (3) I wish Depp's lawyers would introduce and give samples of Hunter Thompson's BONZO journalism in order to understand the "style" Depp uses to write texts. Hunter was bombastic, vulgar, wild, over the top - which is what made him so famous in the 60s-70s. See Thompson's Letterman interview. Depp was very influenced by him. The jurors likely do not know Hunter Thompson's work.

Tried posting a link to your Day Two coverage onto Sydney Watson's yt video on the trial, but it wouldn't take. Then even just mentioning the .com seemed to hang it up. Finally took when I referenced Patriots' Soapbox site, but seems too little to be of much help bringing light to your work.
