Johnny Depp Trial: Heard's lawyers say Washington Post op-ed wasn't her idea
During closing arguments, Amber Heard's lawyers told the jury that Johnny Depp was carrying out a smear campaign on Heard. The lawyer claimed Depp refused to accept accountability for his actions, which they claim led to physical abuse against Amber Heard. The lawyer also said that writing the Washington Post Op-Ed article that sparked Johnny Depp's defamation claim was not Amber Heard's idea, saying that the article was not a "hit piece" about Johnny Depp.
