Please keep this thread on topic. Let's keep focused on Johnny's case, not other actors or other people's similar problems.

Thank you.

I don’t mean to be rude, hollyberry, but I believe AH only avoided a trial because both she and her ex were out-of-state residents. The case was suspended and she was given two years probation. Tasya never dropped the charges nor did she do anything to have them mitigated at that time (which was quite telling in itself); it was only when AH tried to have the record expunged years later (when Johnny entered the picture) that she tried to change the story - and that’s when the police officer who’d arrested AH spoke up and set the record straight: it happened exactly as she’d said originally.
My God....I didn't know that.

Here’s a link, hollyberry, that explains it all more accurately than I:

Here is a link to a portion of the court document filed by Johnny in his suit against AH. Bits and pieces are elsewhere, but these are the first ten pages, easy to read, complete and sequential. By “easy to read” I am referring to presentation only; some of the content will take your breath away.

Thank you for the opportunity to read this document. It is indeed very clear and almost very devastating. I hope it receives wide coverage. The existence of documentation and witnesses is so important, and Johnny and his legal team have done an incredible job. To think of what he was going through it pretty upsetting. I am so glad that we have stood strong behind him for several years now, and we will continue to have his back until this entire matter is finalized.

Despite personal struggles, clearly, Johnny has privately thought all of this through and with the aid of his top notch legal team, has finally shared the complete truth. His timing to bring on the fight may have been long overdo, but I salute his steadfast determination and strength. No doubt there will always be negativity from those who remain narrow minded or choose to avoid truth when it is right in front of them. Yet, in the end, bravery is a compelling force when being accused of wrong doing and bravery is what makes Johnny Depp our champion.

Heard has shot herself in the foot with this. Instead of going on with life, enjoying the success Aquaman brought her, and looking to the future she couldn't resist one last twist of the knife, and now it's going to back fire on her spectacularly. The can of worms is open.
Johnny I think, is going to survive this, once he's got rid of the snakes in the grass investing his personal circle it'll be a fresh start. His real friends have stuck by him through it, and the success of Grindelwald I'm sure has been a boost financially and emotionally.
Best of luck for the future Johnny! :giveflower:

I would so much like to read this, but am not allowed :sad: :tear: :bawl:
OK, I will behave :blush: But I am not allowed to access the page. Am I the only one?
One possible reason could be, that I am in Europe, and radaronline is one of those American sites, who doesn't want to bother with the reasonably strict rules, the EU has concerning the Internet. But can anybody help, so I, and perhaps others, can have a look, too?
Pretty please :) ?

Many thanks, Sweeney Todd! Knew it had to be more than 10 pages - that’s why I changed my post to “a portion of” - but didn’t have a clue how to find the rest.

Again, thank you!

I had the same problem, so again, thanks Sweeney! :bouquet:

As for the report it makes for hard reading but...my God.

Hopefully this will end up public knowledge soon. I'm just very glad they never had kids.

:rosegirl: Sweeney for linking the entire document!

The end lists his legal team for this VA lawsuit. I'd seen the attorneys Waldman and Chew working for Johnny before this. Brittany Biles' expertise is listed online as SEC and FTC matters, privacy breaches, cybersecurity, hacking, accounting fraud, clients facing negative media attention, etc. Besides the negative media attention, could she be focusing on Scamber & Co's texts, videos and photos?
