🚨⚖️ Join me as we take a look at the upcoming trial where Johnny Depp will square off against Amber Heard in a defamation case stemming from her 2018 OpEd in The Washington Post. Ms. Heard has also filed counter claims of a similar nature against Mr. Depp stemming from comments made by his legal team.

In this video we'll explore the history of the case, the allegations being litigated, and exactly why so many people are so passionate about this case. The goal in this video is to give you a high level overview of the case, and in other videos coming in the week leading up to trial we'll delve deeper into the allegations and other elements of the case.

🚨⚖️ What do you think--is this just a run-of-the-mill he-said/she-said case, or is there more to this lawsuit that says something about recent societal events and movements? Come check it out, and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Thanks for watching and enjoy!
