Johnny Depp on stand: ex-wife Amber Heard's allegations 'heinous'
FAIRFAX, Va. — Actor Johnny Depp took the stand Tuesday in his libel lawsuit against
After denying Heard’s abuse allegations, Depp spoke at length about a childhood in which physical abuse from his mother was “constant.” The abuse came in the form of ashtrays being flung or a high-heeled shoe or telephone being used to beat him, Depp said. When he became a father, Depp said, he made sure his children didn’t experience that kind of upbringing.

Heard’s lawyers have said he physically and sexually assaulted her on multiple occasions, often in situations where he drank so much he later blacked out.
