Amber Heard’s spokesperson released a statement prior to her cross-examination.

They began their statement by repeating an “old saying by trial lawyers.”

“When the facts are on your side, argue the facts,” they quoted.

“When the facts are not on your side, pound away on the podium,” they continued.

“Depp’s attorneys will instead pound away on the victim,” the spokesperson said.

“We fear it will be equal parts shameful and desperate,” they added.

Heard’s spokesperson claimed that “the truth … is not on Depp’s side.”

They claimed that Depp’s attorneys will “avoid the central issue of the trial.”

They claim Depp’s attorneys are trying to deny Heard “the First Amendment Right of Freedom of Speech.”
