Sorry, but what was her mountains of evidence? There is so much in that article you posted that was twisted for the author’s own convenience and a lot completely contradicted in court, especially the make-up artists. Conveniently left out the before/after edits of that video of him in the kitchen where she’s smirking at the camera.
She had a very slight cut on her lip, which the same cut in the same place has appeared in even recent photos of her, most likely caused by her nervous habit of picking her chapped lips, which she even did on camera in court. A picture of quite clearly cleanly cut hair on the floor, in no way ripped from anyones head. All of her “witnesses” are her ex-friends who recorded video depositions with no cross examination in 2019 and aren’t really speaking up for her now apart from the sister, who has vastly changed her story since 2016. Meanwhile the vast numbers of audio recordings back up Depp’s story. The most damning of all was when she must have forgot the phone was still recording after the Australian finger incident which was not admissible due to the main bodyguard on the tape having died a few years ago so was unable to be verified.
This is the same time when she claims she was heavily beaten, but she’s wailing, apologising for what she’s done and crying, wanting to see Depp. There appears to be absolutely no concern for her physical state by everyone else in the room apart from trying to calm her down and get her to leave the country
I don’t care about the “bigger picture” as I care more about truth of individual situations. I deal with false accusations of physical and sexual assault in their droves on a weekly basis at work, with people making all kinds of impossible claims merely looking for a refund, or sometimes just out of malice at someone not giving them the appropriate customer service, then refusing to cooperate with any authority the second you try to take their statements seriously. They’re far more common than anyone would imagine and barely recorded anywhere.
This book is a really great account over how the UK system railroaded one man to be thankfully unsuccessfully prosecuted. Sadly Simon died of cancer in 2020
