Episode 66: The Verdict Is In

Crime Time: With Virginia Defense Attorneys

The Johnny Depp v Amber Heard trial ended and the verdict came in last week. Depp won on all 3 counts and he was awarded $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages but the judgment for punitive damages will be capped at $350,000 per Virginia law. Heard lost 2 out of 3 of her counts and was awarded $2 million dollars in compensatory damages and no punitive damages were awarded to her by the jury. In this episode we break down what we think about the verdict and this trial that went on for several weeks here in Fairfax County.
