Amber Heard and Johnny Depp defamation trial: From 'never hit any woman' to being called 'a filthy whore', key moments so far!

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation case: Amber Heard's lawyers introduced text messages in which Johnny Depp called Heard a 'filthy whore' and said he wanted her dead.

Bangalore: Actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are suing each other for defamation, each claiming they were abused before and during their roughly two-year marriage. Heard's team rested the defence case on Tuesday. Closing arguments are scheduled for Friday.

-- Depp testified that he never hit Heard or any other woman. He said she was the one who became abusive and "bullied" him with "demeaning name-calling."

"If I stayed to argue, eventually, I was sure it was going to escalate into violence, and oftentimes it did."

-- The pair offered differing accounts of an early 2015 argument in Australia, where Depp was filming a fifth "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie.

Depp said Heard threw a vodka bottle that severed the top of his right middle finger. The actor said he went into shock and used blood from his injury to write messages to Heard on the wall.
