Johnny Depp and Amber Heard star from April 11 in the trial of the decade. Both couples from 2012 to 2016 (in the middle they got married), they quarreled badly, he soon denounced it for physical and verbal abuse and in 2018 he proved it again. He denied it, charged him with libel of $ 50 million, and in response, he responded with $ 100.
Since the first days of the month – not to mention all that has been said in recent years – the information has not stopped publicizing referring to the toxicity of the relationship maintained by the artists. And it will continue like this for a few weeks.
One of the wildest statements about the couple came from the voice of Depp’s current doctor and Heard’s former doctor, Dr. David Kipper.

And the finger?
Kipper revealed the bloody details of the deadly day he had to attend Depp after he lost part of a finger.
That March 2015 episode that took place in a mansion in Queensland, Australia, was, in other words, extremely confusing. There are conflicting versions of what happened and it’s almost impossible to know how the Pirates of the Caribbean protagonist turned out like this a month after Heard married.
The truth is Kipper is on the actor’s side (his friend) and everything he said at trial will be used by the protagonist’s lawyers.

Kipper said in a prerecorded statement that he treated Depp that day as soon as he lost his finger and he cleaned up the actor’s wound and asked the nurses and hotel staff to find the missing tip.
After examining him, he was referred to a hospital and decided not to accompany him to the clinic. Once the episode melted away, Johnny wrote a series of text messages against Heard that, over time and like almost everything that happened between the actors, became public.
“She is so AMBITIOUS! She’s so desperate for success and fame … So maybe she caught me, man! Even if he crushes me with my grief and old age ”, one of the phrases Depp sent to Kipper.
“I cut off the tip of my finger, heart … What should I do? Except, of course, going to a hospital … I’m so embarrassed to go out with her in anything, “was another of the messages he sent her.
In a five -hour audio of the moment of the fight in Australia – don’t know who recorded it – you can hear how nurses and doctors try to find Depp’s finger at home while Heard cries desperately. On the recording, a professional was heard stating that he was looking for “a third of a finger”.

Audios indicate that the battle is destructive. The house fell to pieces and Depp lost a lot of blood. In fact, one of the actor’s bodyguards was heard saying that he had never seen Johnny “so bad” in his life and in the days before the fight Depp had drunk a lot of alcohol and consumed a lot of ecstasy.

At that time, Depp explained that he was injured because Heard threw a bottle of vodka at him and he even mentioned, confused, that it was because of a door. Kipper did not know exactly what had happened.
On the day of the fight, the professional also saw Heard and, although he noticed her resentment, he made sure the actress was not harmed. He also noticed broken glass on the kitchen floor, but no blood.
“After the incident where Heard threw the bottle of vodka, he threw me the second bottle of vodka, which broke the top of my finger and sliced the bones, that’s where I started to feel what I think is a kind of a meltdown, a nervous breakdown or something like that, ”Johnny said.

Heard denied his dating and made sure Depp cut himself with a knife then push him on a ping pong table and against a refrigerator.
Kipper said that in the six years he has been treating the two he has not noticed any signs of abuse between them and neither of them has reported any violence to him.
Depp’s lawyers wanted to use Kipper’s statements to show that if his client abused Heard, the doctor would know. In relation to this, they will also note that Heard, once separated from Depp, asked Kipper for medical records from December 2015.
