[QUOTE="WPLG, post: 40043, member: 158"] Amber Heard says she stands by the testimony she gave during a contentious six-week libel trial against former husband Johnny Depp, saying she has "always told the truth.” “That's all I spoke. And I spoke it to power. And I paid the price,” Heard said in her first post-verdict interview, two weeks after [URL='https://apnews.com/article/johnny-depp-amber-heard-trial-jury-deliberations-2a484944ecfa8947f9f59b44c14bae39']a jury awarded Depp more than $10 million and vindicated his allegations that Heard lied about Depp abusing her[/URL]. Depp sued Heard for libel in Virginia over a December 2018 op-ed she wrote in The Washington Post describing herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse.” His lawyers said he was defamed by the article even though it never mentioned his name.
