I would caution you to be very careful with your defamatory posts about Amber Heard, because you appear not to have understood either the proceedings of the court case or the verdict.
Firstly, there have been TWO trials on this matter.
The British trial found that Depp assaulted Heard on multiple occasions, mainly while under the influence of illegal drugs. The Judge found that "the great majority of alleged assaults of Ms Heard by Mr Depp have been proved to the civil standard".
The American trial was not a trial as to whether those assaults took place. It found that BOTH Depp and Heard had defamed one another, with BOTH Heard and Depp to be paid damages.
There is no universe in which the American verdict wipes out the British verdict.
Basically BOTH trials found that Depp assaulted Heard on multiple occasions. But the American trial also found that Heard's op-ed in the Washington Poost was defamatory, but largely because she had no inherent legal right to litigate their abusive relationship in the media.
But if you think that Depp was somehow cleared, he wasn't. He was exposed as a drug addict who is violent at times when intoxicated in BOTH trials. It's just that Heard had to pay large damages for the damage to his reputation and career caused by her publicising his abusive behaviour in a newspaper editorial which was unecessary.
You clearly either didn't see the trial or are purposefully overlooking things.
