Disappointed To Lose To Johnny Depp, Amber Heard: I'm Heartbroken

JAKARTA - Johnny Depp's ex-wife, Amber Heard, said she was "very" disappointed with the decision to sue Johnny for defamation against him. After six weeks of trial and three days of making a decision, the jury has finally decided on the defamation case between actors Johnny Depp and Amber Heard.

Although the jury is of the opinion that both of them have contributed to defame each party. Amber had to pay compensation of US$15 million (approximately IDR 217 billion), while Johnny Depp had to pay compensation of US$2 million (approximately IDR 28.9 billion).

"The disappointment I feel today is beyond words. I am heartbroken that the mountains of evidence are still insufficient to counter the disproportionate power, influence, and influence of my ex-husband," Amber said via her Instagram page quoted Thursday, June 9.

"I am even more disillusioned by what this ruling means to other women. It is a setback. It returns the time to a time when a woman who dared to speak up could be publicly humiliated. It restores the idea that violence against women should be taken seriously," she continued.

According to Amber, she believes that Johnny has succeeded in getting the jury to ignore the main issue of freedom of expression or "Freedom of Speech" and ignore strong evidence. Therefore, Amber feels sad because she feels she has lost her rights.

"I am saddened to lose this case. But I am still sadder because I seem to have lost the right that I thought I had as an American which was to speak freely and openly," said Amber Heard.
