Wednesday June 1, the jurors returned their verdict in the lawsuit between actor Johnny Depp and his ex-wife Amber hearing. A decision that ultimately turns out to be favorable to the actor.

The jubilation seized the people present in front of the court of Fairfax (Virginia) to the statement of the verdict. Johnny Depp, the star actor of Pirates of the Caribbeanwas ultimately found not guilty of domestic violence against Amber hearinghis ex-wife. The actor’s relief can be seen in a social media post where he declares: “The jury brings me back to life (…), I feel at peace now. For Amber hearing, it’s the cold shower. The actress was prostrate at the announcement of the judgment.

This defeat of Amber hearing comes with a penalty strong, because she will have to pay 15 million dollars in restitution to Johnny Depp for defamation. Although cleared of certain charges, the actor is also convicted of defamation, but he will only have to pay $ 2 million. The actress expresses her sadness and a certain decline in the cause of women. At the end of an ultra-mediatized trial in which the image of each was strongly tarnished, the two actors will try to carry out their profession again.
