After Johnny Depp won his libel case against his ex-wife, Amber Heard, a large number of people are concerned for the future of domestic abuse survivors.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star, 58, was awarded compensatory damages of $10million (£8 million) and a further $5 million (£4 million) in punitive damages by a jury yesterday.
The jury ruled that Amber's op-ed article, titled 'I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change', for the Washington Post about domestic violence had been defamatory.
