Her own legal counsel objected to his own question once he received an answer from a witness that he didn't like.

He said Amber constantly insulted him, but the actor said he never was once emotionally or physically abusive to the actress.Article continues below advertisement Amber Heard sold an edited video of Johnny Depp slamming cabinets to TMZ and the whole world instantly took her side.

I thought maybe I could bring her around. Because the Amber Heard that I knew for the first year, year and a half was not this, suddenly this opponent. It wasn't my girl, she had become my opponent," Johnny said. To All Men that have been or are currently being abused: I apologize for this Dr.'s testimony. Most women do not agree with her testimony.
