Her Objection video has over 17 million views
In two minutes, she objected to Elaine Bredehoft, a lawyer on Heard¡¯s legal team, several times on the grounds of hearsay, leading the witness and lack of foundation. Most of her objections were sustained that led to Heard¡¯s lawyer rephrasing her questions. At point, she even said, "I¡¯m trying, I¡¯m trying".
She even made Amber Heard confess to fake donations
She got Heard to admit she didn¡¯t follow through on a promise to donate part of her US$7 million divorce settlement to the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union). The actress confessed and said in the courtroom, "I have not been able to fulfil those obligations yet."
