In this episode we provide the groundwork necessary to understand Johnny Depp's defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard by first discussing Depp's lawsuit against the British tabloid "The Sun." We discuss the important legal and procedural differences between defamation in the US and UK and how they affected Depp's case. We then review each of the 14 incidents of violence "The Sun" used to defend their statement. Though we realize the US trial is at the top of everyone's interest, understanding the UK trial will give you the helpful background.
