New evidence proves that Johnny Depp did not trash apartment in drunken rage.
A UK correspondent has found more smoking gun evidence that Amber Heard, and her friends Ms Pennington and Mr Drew, staged the scenes of destruction that they later testified were caused solely by Mr Depp as he rampaged through the penthouses swinging a magnum-sized bottle of wine, causing much damage as he went.
“When providing photographic evidence in support of her allegations, Ms Heard inadvertently submitted two photographs of the same staircase landing in Penthouse 5 that included a small area of overlap between in the respective pictures,” our UK correspondent, Andy, reported.
“Within that overlapping area,” Andy added, “spillage that can be seen in one photo, is missing in the other, and broken glass is moved and/or added between photos.”
“Even a cursory look at the part of the landing seen in the second photo, would suggest differences when compared with the equivalent area in the top right corner of the first photo.”
Ms Heard testified that it was she who took all the photos of the damage to the property — however — the testimony of Mr Drew given on day 12 of the UK trial, contradicts that of Ms Heard in that Mr Drew testified that it was in fact he who took all the photos.
“Regardless of who took the photographs, what is crucial is that Mr Drew and Ms Heard by their own testimony were both present at the scene when it was being staged, and hence were both complicit in that staging,” Andy writes in his report.
Although Mr Drew gave a very accurate description of the damage caused to Penthouse 5 on the 12th day of the trial, with the same certainty he could not say whether the damage was caused before the first two LAPD officers arrived at the apartments. This was most likely due to the fact that they were aware of LAPD bodycam footage that showed that there no damage done to the apartment and Johnny Depp was out of town.
Furthermore, the metadata of these photos reveal that the photos were taken at 21:31, just 12 minutes or so after the two officers had left the apartment, again, making it impossible for Johnny Depp to have caused the damage. Other oddities suggest that the metadata may have been altered to make it appear as if the photos were all taken at the same time.
“It is not only near implausible that eight such photos could have been taken within one minute, but near impossible that all eight were taking within the same minute. And even less possible when considering that within that same time the scene was further embellished by adding wine spillage and removing and replacing glass fragments. This raises the question of the very real possibility that the photo metadata had been doctored,” the report concludes.
