UPDATE
9:46 AM PT — More revelations from the unsealed docs. Per reports, there’s a deposition transcript included in the material that didn’t make it to trial, detailing the Australia fingertip incident … as told by Amber’s sister’s former boss, who claims Whitney admitted her sister was responsible.
UPDATE
UPDATE
The woman’s name is Jennifer Howell — an art curator whom Whitney Henriquez worked for during this period — and, supposedly, during her own grilling in the case (pre-trial), she told Johnny’s attorneys that in 2015 … Whitney had recounted the ugly episode to her in person.
UPDATE
Howell claims in her depo that Whitney was with her when Amber contacted her sister to tell her what had happened — and according to Whitney’s ex-boss, she allegedly said Amber had “done it now,” which seems to reference crossing the line as it pertains to fights with Johnny.

UPDATE
This is what JH reportedly said to Camille Vasquez in the unearthed transcript … “And she goes, ‘She cut off his finger. She cut off his finger.’ And then she bolted out the door and was like, ‘I got to call somebody. I got to call somebody.'”
UPDATE
When Camille pressed about who “she” was, Howell responded … “It was Amber and Johnny, and she apparently had thrown a bottle and cut off his finger, is what (Henriquez) reported when she came back in from whoever she talked to outside.”

UPDATE
Like we said, this portion of Howell’s depo was nixed from the trial — but a small, limited section of it did actually get played in court — although, it wasn’t the bombshell this is.
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard each wanted to seriously paint the other in a bad light — worse even than we saw at trial … with even more damning claims surfacing post-verdict.
A treasure trove of court docs has been unsealed, and according to multiple outlets … they contain mountains of unheard evidence that ultimately didn’t make it in front of the jury — forming salacious allegations about each party that hadn’t been known until now.
Some of the more noteworthy ones include a claim from Team Johnny that Amber allegedly worked as a stripper and escort at some point early in her career — something his lawyers apparently wanted to present at trial, but were shot down in the end by Judge Azcarate.
There’s also reportedly mention of a reality show Amber’s sister, Whitney, shot once upon a time which contained what Team Johnny seems to have thought was some harmful info about Amber — also having to do with her past — but the judge wouldn’t let that in either.
As for Team Amber … her lawyers wanted to enter Marilyn Manson texts between him and Johnny that they felt showed him giving pointers to his pal about how to deal with an “amber type scenario” of his own … and even seeking refuge with Johnny in 2016 amid relationship problems he was dealing with that seemed to be teetering into legal territory.
One text from MM to JD around that time reportedly read, “I got a serious police amber type scenarios with L’s family. I’m f**king stressing. I don’t know if you are back but I need asylum somewhere because I think the cops might be headed my way.” This is in reference to someone named Lindsay, whom Manson said had pulled something similar to Amber and who he called “amber 2.0” … to which Johnny responded with acknowledgment and support.
There’s more evidence AH wanted entered about how Johnny’s ‘Pirates 5’ days were worse than previously thought — and how Disney was supposedly fuming about his behavior throughout production. She also wanted to mention other cases he was dealing with — including his assault lawsuit, which he recently settled … all of which were omitted.
6/1/22
As we all know, the evidence presented was pretty focused and specific to Johnny’s specific defamation claims, and Amber’s own as well. We got an earful from just that alone, but if any of this other stuff had been permitted … the case probably would’ve lasted way longer.
