Johnny Depp's Lawyers Insist They Used Amber Heard's 'Words Against Her' To Win Verdict -- NOT Social Media!

perezhilton.com:

Johnny Depp’s lawyers are finally clapping back at claims made by Amber Heard’s attorney! Camille Vasquez, who was just promoted to partner at her law firm, and Ben Chew sat down with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America Wednesday to open up about the highly publicized trial and the noteworthy verdict.

As Perezcious readers know, the Pirates of the Caribbean star was awarded $10.35 million after the jury sided with him following a six-week defamation trial.

A day after the verdict, Amber’s attorney Elaine Bredehoft went on the Today show, claiming (among other things) that “lopsided” social media content must have “influenced” the jury’s decision.

While jurors were told not to look up anything about the case, Elaine (and other Amber supporters) have insisted it would have been near impossible for them not to hear anything about the case outside of the courtroom given what a viral sensation the trial had become.
