Amber Heard is expressing her frustrations about how Johnny Depp’s defamation trial panned out — and claiming that one potentially crucial piece of evidence never made it to the courtroom.
Ahead of her explosive sit-down interview with Savannah Guthrie, which will air Friday night, the Aquaman star apparently turned over “a binder worth of years of notes dating back to 2011 from the very beginning of her relationship” with Depp to NBC‘s Dateline, and those notes are said to detail instances when she claimed to her therapist that the actor “hit her, threw her against a wall, and threatened to kill her.” Notes taken by Heard’s therapist during their sessions could be seen on-screen during the 20-minute preview from the Dateline episode released on NBC’s Peacock, while Guthrie told viewers that the binder contained several descriptions of violence the actress claimed she had faced at the hands of Johnny.

As for why the notes weren’t shown in court? Amber’s legal team was barred from submitting them as evidence by the judge in the trial, who dismissed them as “hearsay.” Hmmm…Of course, it was reported the judge also dismissed evidence Johnny’s team wanted to bring in too, presumably under the same reasoning.
