This was a great video. So glad it was televised for all to see the truth and not how MSM twisted it. I was lucky to be in court most days to watch it. Depp’s team was amazing
exactly, televised people still distort the facts, imagine if it wasn't. The Deep's team gave a class of what a team of lawyers should be like👏🏽
Laura I completely agree. Transparency is unbelievably important. The MSM just won’t give viewers that transparency. Thank you Laura for all of dedication and hard work to help expose the truth. We are all so grateful.
did you notice any kind of reaction from the judge while you were in court
Now they moved on to twisting what was stated in the unsealed documents and ignoring the fact that thw defense didn't have a mountain of evidence that was suppressed. The alleged damning therapist notes were not even proffered for the record.
This was very interesting. Thanks for posting your interview. I came into the trial about 2 weeks after it started and had never really seen what happened in court. The only time I had been in a criminal court was when I had a peeping Tom who tried to get into my apartment. I went to court and of course it wasn't this big a deal and it only took maybe 15 minutes but that was the extent of my knowledge of a trial. JDs team worked like a well oiled machine - calm, collected and efficient.
I’m more impressed every time I see Ben and Camille. Pure intellect and class versus the bottom feeding shadiness of Heard’s team. I never knew attorneys could flat out lie in court with no consequences until Elaine.
Honstly! The difference between the two teams how they speak in interviews is so big, this one is professional and wholesome while other one felt toxic and gaslighting
@@angel88dead absolutely! The defendant’s team was nothing but gaslighting at its worst, where as Depps team’s elegance was more- “let me open this door for u, since ur carrying all those bags”, Team Turd was- “pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!”
My thoughts exactly! The way she voir dired Morgan knight and then cross examined him... totally bipolar
These two really master the art of "keeping your words expensive." Elaine, on the other hand, throws her word salad at the wall and hopes something sticks outside of the memes.
Elaine's closing was hilarious, she was all over the place . I watch it from time to time to get a good laugh !!!
Ben and Camille are a class act. Both so humble and kind and consider the importance of their words.
Fact!
Yes!
no they are act class ACTS! watch the trial again... they were RUDE, condescending and fame hungry!!! she is no different to Amber herd! VAIN! both of them want to become celebrities now! SAD!!
@@OnlyThe1Son first let me say you have a right to your opinion. I don't get it, but it's your right. In my watching the case, Johnny's lawyers were strong and on point. Not rude or bullies. Just doing their job. But to me, who was RUDE and dirty was AH lawyers. Badgering him with.. Did I read that right... Did I read that right etc without letting him explain anything. And the newly released info that AH team trying to dispose an old lawyer of JD, whom they all knew was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Asking the poor man the same questions over and over again. He had to have HIS lawyer there to help him. And AH team STILL fought to have him disposed. Who does that ?? "What if any" kind person does that ?? Her and her team played very dirty. Even disclosing (lie) how much she had to pay for her defense. Omg come on !!!! That was against court rules but they did it numerous times. And brought up the UK trial more than once even though they were told it was not to be brought up cause it didn't play a role in this case. Disgusting 🤢. Johnny's team didn't play dirty. They presented facts. And won 🎉🎉🎉. A case nobody thought in the beginning they would win cause that kind of case is hard. His team did a great job. Let them do interviews, unlike Elaine lol. Johnny's team never bashes them. Elaine went on tv and bashed the judge, the jury , Johnny's team and the internet. Twice on her scripted message that finally ended. Johnny's team are stars, so be it. If you don't agree, that's ok
You like Actors...because that is what you are seeing.
Ben is just a class act in every way, he took this young team of attorneys and made them stars. The fact my daughters now look up to Camille is heartwarming as a mother . Such a great role model.
I agree. It's so great to see such great practice in court
I am a true survivor and I watched the entire trial. AH tried to make a mockery out of true survivors. I was as I’m sure other survivors were extremely triggered and very upset because we can see straight through her. Thank goodness for Johnny’s lawyers exposing the truth and showing the world that abuse has no gender. Thank you so much to Ben, Camille and the amazing lawyers on Johnny’s team. Johnny’s finally free. Justice for all true survivors
🙏I'm a survivor as well and my blood pressure got up . I'm 63 now but I was young until my 30s abuse is not funny it hurts and if she was abused they would of locked him up asap. Ty blessings. 🙏🙏🙏❤🌹
I hear you 💜 (she triggered me as saw my own abuser in her) & the way she stared him down made me cringe A TRUE victim doesn't need to put on a performance 😔
Missi Jade. Oh my goodness, I couldn't agree with you more!! You took the words right out of my mouth. I couldn't have said it better. I grew up in an alcohol fueled domestic violence hell. I waa born and raised in Fairfax Virginia. I still live in northern Virginia. I wasn't aware of this case until it dropped in my backyard...and like you, listening to the testimony broke open old scars and I found myself crying uncontrollably at times. I was so freaking disgusted with Amber Heard. She IS NOT a survivor...she is a perpetrator. I have read that she may have suffered abuse as a child and I don't doubt that possibility BUT, she abused this man. I wasn't really a Johnny Depp fan..I knew of him but I hadn't seen any of his movies. My kids have, but I hadn't. I bawled like a baby as I listened to his sister testify about trying to protect him from abuse and the two of them avoiding their mother and walking on eggshells. It took me right back 47 years ago to the little girl hiding in the closet holding her hands over her little brother's ears to shield him from the sounds of our mother being beaten and our home destroyed as we waited for the police to arrive and it would stop. Back then, they couldn't arrest unless they actually saw him hit her. I grew up to go to work for the police department, working with the very same men and women who responded to my home repeatedly as a child. Amber's lies made me so angry. She not only shit in Johnny's bed, she shit on the BILLIONS of dv/sa survivors. You are so right...we see right through her to her shallow, hollow soul. I honestly think she was..and still is, a danger to Johnny's life. I think he was lucky to have made it out of the marriage alive. My heart broke for the little boy he was, and the generous, kind, man he is. I believe he truly loved her...and she did him dirty. I don't think she is capable of feeling love for anyone. I think she schemed from the jump...and she had several contingencies in mind in case her original plan didn't work. I'm glad you have survived the hell you suffered...and obviously been able to heal some. I wish you all the best...good wholesome true love in your life, happiness and joy in your heart and the healing that you deserve. Again, thank you for speaking up...so well said. 💚
I am a woman and a survivor of IPV and SA. I know exactly how a victim behaves and how a perpetrator behaves and AH is a vicious perpetrator.
I am a survivor too, and I feel exactly the same way!
That was an amazing interview of lead and co lead- Ben and Camille. They both believed in Johnny and fought hard. Justice was served!
It certainly was! :)
Camille is truly an inspiration to aspiring lawyers.
Both of them are walking proof that hard work pays off. They did absolutely amazing. I love them both.
Yes! A cousin of mine is a lawyer. But she dsnt work as lawyer, just in a company doing "Law" related things. I like it, when lawyers show ethics.
Camille is amazing, it's great to have a role model with a brain for our children. Not one of these "influencers"
Absolutely agree!! She is the role model that I want my two girls looking up to . She's fabulous! The "influencers" aren't anything but a damn joke 🤣
Thanks, BH Bar Association, for the stream with Ben & Camille!
From this interview, I can see that Ben Chew is a great lead attorney. Very humble, smart and most importantly-wise. Camille is also humble, smart, hardworking and inspiring. They know how to use talent without micromanaging and let each of their team shine. People like these are great to work with and very team-oriented.
Exactly! He didnt feel the need to be egomaniacal and overtake and do everything. He knew his team was competent & he trusted them & knew they could handle it & do just as good of a job as he would or even better. Thats the epitome of a damn good leader!! Unlike the other side *cough ELAINE cough* lol
The Deep's team gave a class of what a team of lawyers should be like!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I found Johnny doing many things I've done to deal with an abuser. He's hyper aware of her tone, always on alert for that subtle change that you know leads to an attack. The way he stayed calm as she escalated. His submissive demeanor in court. Yes, he laughed a bit, but anyone who has been through similar knows that you grab the good times when you can, because they carry you through the bad stuff. He flinches all the time. He always looks like he's ready to retreat quickly. Nevermind how bad she triggered me. What was the most emotionally raw for me was him. Feeling for him. And knowing the type of abuse he's always going to get from her because she will never give up.
That's so heart wrenching. I wanted to hug him so bad while watching the trial. And I hope you're happier and safe now as well.
It was so clear to all of us who have experienced this or similar type of trauma, to quickly switch on to who was the abuser and who was the abused. Johnny’s demeanour was like a echo for me and yourself too I’m sure. And watching AH really affected me negatively, even more than I expected. It gives me a knot in my stomach to think about how much longer he is going to have to deal with her craziness… we all wish she would just disappear so the poor man can have some peace!! I hope you’ve been able to find your peace in this life also 🙏
Humor / sarcasm are a way to deal with the ugliness of life ...
Same here, she triggered me from the very beginning and I’ve also listened to the full (5h and the other ones a bit shorter) recordings that were leaked years before this trial was streamed and remember the filling of going back in time because those were almost identical (at times word to word what I’ve heard or said) and for him to expose everything about himself like that (which I also so a lot of myself in) gave me some pease of mind to- a- actually acknowledge that I’m not some nut head just imagining things and that there is someone who has the same experience and that there are people who have been through the same type of person and - b- the verdict, that his innocent and that he was able to speak the truth (which I never did and never got that Justice for myself) that was the relief that that I needed to make that next step in recovering from 6years of that relationship (on and off).. so I feel for people in the same place and the same experience- it only shows how strong we (who went through that abuse) are and how much a person can take just by being a good person, loyal, simply in love..
As a DV survivor I completely agree with you. It became abundantly clear he was a victim
I think Ben & Camille are a representation of a healty work environment. Ben has full confidence in his team. I think the firm will mold good lawyers & GREAT leaders....
I’m a doctor from India and I was hooked onto this trial like it’s nobody’s business.. This is a dream team and they have done a fabulous job and it’s always a pleasure to listen to them. Thank you for this amazing interview.
I’m a female DV survivor and Camille’s representation in the Depp v Heard trial gave me closure on my past A. For Elaine to claim that the verdict was a set back for all women is BS to say the least! Anyone who claims this obviously didn’t watch the trial! I appreciate Ben Chew as well as the rest of their team.
I totally agree!!!! 👏👏👏
Omg thank you for saying this! This trial really helped me. It gave me some kind of closure but because I still live with my borderline histrionic narcissistic mother it’s not full closure. But I felt very vindicated when he won. It was as if I had won something. It was as if the first time the world was seeing what I live through even though obviously nobody knows me at all. This case and the winning of it affected A lot of dv survivors .
All the BS Elaine and Amber were saying really scared me. What they were actually saying to all women out there esp DV victims are "be scared" and "things will be more difficult for you". What if a DV victim didn't watch the trial and just watched their interviews on TV? They're (E&A) not helping at all! But they're pinning it on Depp! I wished some influential person in the women's movement called them out on it.
@@iagreewithyou3478 that's what KILLS me! Rather than correcting AH, they've allowed her to speak in DC as an advocate for DV. It's VERY scary! She knows all about DV as an abuser... NOT as a victim but that's not the tack she's taken. Our own VP evidently hasn't done ANY homework as she obviously thinks it a good thing to have AH speak out for survivors. It makes it even scarier & VERY disgusting! If she were to turn the tables & call AH out, that would go a VERY long way. Rather, she's looking more & more like a total idiot while being in support of AH! I wish to appeal to her but don't think she'd pay attention. No one that speaks out in mainstream media in support of AH or the DV community (those who publicly represent survivors like AH as the ambassador, the ACLU, etc. NOT survivors like you & I who have a much smaller voice & no platform like these folks do) seems to have watched the trial or done any fact-gathering!! Rather, they just blindly believe her. Especially NBC & partners yet they speak out as if they know the facts. Bridget Monahan (sp) should step back & get away from AH who is obviously under some substance influence & looks a fool when speaking with Bridget on stage. I hope that makes sense. I've got a list of companies I'll be BOYCOTTING as well as AH in ANYTHING she does.
So sorry to hear that. May your future bring you happiness and peace. May the past become a very distance memory.
Damn, Ben and Camille had about 10 opportunities to lay waste to AH's legal team here, and they didn't take the bait a single time.
And they clearly established a few counterpoints to the vitriol that Heard and Bredehoft have spewed. "We worked in a bubble" kind of discounts the Heard team claiming Depp's team were in this for fame or publicity.
They are a class act. It just shows that you elevate yourself and don’t put others down. They have great self confidence and are great role models for everyone to look up too. Team work, doing homework for the trial, setting up good witnesses and experts, and being prepared for the trial as a whole and able to adjust through out the trial ( for example having Kate Moss ready to go if needed, & Dr Curry is a great expert witness).
The best part is they actually did - who didn't know exactly what & who they were talking about? 😂 Not a good Diplomat myself I really admire it elsewhere.
They were somewhat ineffective BEFORE the trial ... when AH was ordered to hand over digital evidence in NOVEMBER 2021 ... and in MARCH 2022 they hadnt received everything AND lots of the stuff they received was "SPAM" ... the multiple and edited versions of pictures. 50.000 files worth of GARBAGE to flood them and make it impossible for an expert to check these files for metadata inconsistencies before the trial. They SHOULD HAVE gotten the judge to "kick team AH" months before March.
That's because they are a class act!
I am glad when the good lawyer's represents people that are telling the truth
Lawyers always lie...it's what they do. . Wake up.
@@Andrea-sl8wd Well, by that logic, everyone should be convicted. Both Plaintiff and Defendant. Sooo, I guess we just need to absolve us all of the lying and move somewhere where there is zero due process. 🙌
That requirement to believe in your client and believing her or his story is HUGE. I think it makes the difference between a good attorney and a great one. It was so obvious that Ben and Camille AND their team were passionately in support of Johnny. And remember, the jury sees that…
Team Amber is STILL believing her ... and are discrediting/questioning the neutrality of jurors.
@@Muck006 I don't get the impression that Team Amber believe her aside from Elaine. Discrediting jurors is only part of legal strategy, doesn't mean they really believe her.
Yes. And they felt the Lies of this woman and CV did an overwhelming job cross-examining AH! I watched it live and I said: "God thank you!"...
@@Muck006 no I think it's about money. Maybe..... Maybe Elaine believes her but I don't think the others do. Thankfully Mr Rotten born has remained silent. The video of her passing him some paper and he ignores it is hilarious. On another video..a different lawyer sits while Ben is taking looking like he wished he was on the other team lol
@@dalfifran7572 on
You can tell how much this means to ben every time he talks about it, he nearly wells up when talking about what Johnny had lost.
Not even half way through it but this already shows the kind of people they are. Really inspiring not just for lawyers but for everyone out there who love their job and want to go the extra mile. Thanks for this genuine interview as opposed to what we see in mainstream media these days 🙏🏻
I agree! I am just now finding myself having to let go of a pet project and trusting my staff to carry it out. Ben trusting his staff is the encouragement I didn’t know I needed to hear.
I love them!
@@AnyahEMB Yes it was great to watch. I agree. Watching him sit there looking proud as his staff performed !!!! And he did look proud.... And trusting putting in other hands.
Well said. And I absolutely agree!
They are so genuine ,and more important, believable!!
It's great to see Camille and Ben in this relaxed venue and get to know them a little more. So lovely to be reminded of their how natural they are, and how much class and integrity they have. Thank you for this. 👍🙂 👏
🙌fully agree!!
Amber hired all new lawyers..ugh
@@Acap350 I've heard a smart lawyer, Emily D. Baker, say that it is not unusual for someone to hire new lawyers for an appeal. However she did mention that it is unusual for someone to do a press release announcing the change; usually its just done without any fanfare. Also Rottenborn will still be a part of AH's team and that surprises me; I thought he was sick of AH.
@@9lavender Johnny should just stay in Europe. This person Amber appears to be a sociopath. I believe he won't be mentally healthy for another trial after appeal. I would say fuck it and move to Switzerland
“There was an expert on the other side that was comical and weird” gee could that be Dr Speigal
What a great interview. Could spend hours listening to these guys chat about their experiences, insights from the trial and secret hidden alpacas!!
Yes! Love the alpacas story. 🪅🪅🪅
@@prisonforjohnnydepp5298 get lost, there's the door... ➡️🚪
I'm a survivor of DV and I now work as a social worker with other dv survivors. In 2014, I escaped with our then 2yo daughter to a dv house. (He ended up passing away in 2015). I don't believe my daughter & I would be alive today had we not left when we did. I believed Amber at the time- I didn't really know anything about either of them. I was just primed to assume no one would lie about something like this! Like me, there was the age and perceived power difference. Her "donating" really sealed the deal. Under this info, I WANTED her to win! I only watched this trial because I love Emily D Baker and she was covering it. At some point in the trial- to my horror- I realized the truth; DEPP was the abused and Heard was not just his tormentor- but she was continually abusing him through her lies. Just repulsive! I was actually triggered by listening to her abuse Depp on those horrific recordings. Besides having a higher voice, she sounded EXACTLY like my abuser- the gaslighting/ circular diatribes and making herself into the victim were especially familiar. After the trial, I read and watched everything I could about this case- transcripts, her "evicence," UK trial, unsealed docs etc. The more info from primary docs I read, the more I knew for sure that she was the abuser. What sucks is had I not done that, and only listened to lazy reporting by the media, I prob wouldve been really upset by the verdict. By telling victims that her case shows that no one will be believed, SHE has made a mockery of all dv survivors. She's trying to abuse ALL of us REAL victims. And the media (media that, as a lefty-liberal feminist I have always trusted and supported!) Is only happy to oblige. Its absolutely sickening. This team was incredibly healing to watch though. I think all survivors and current victims would've LOVED to have a Ben Chew and Camille Vasquez in their corner. Its kinda been a fantasy of mine- a hero who cares about me is able to protect me & clearly show what I was put through. They put so much love into protecting Johnny, and they truly "get it." I have re-watched Ms Vasquez slay Heard many times since the trial. I've also really enjoyed reading what Ben "just a snarky guy" Chew said over the years in the unsealed docs! To me, they are heroes. They are an amazing team- it has been like watching the world's best orchestra/soccer team support each other to victory. Thank you so much for all you've done in supporting survivors everywhere.
I’m sorry to hear about your past, and hope with much therapy you and your daughter are in a good place! yes you are right, I work with real victims of dv, and I too believed AH, as her voice was the only one all over the media! It was when I felt compelled to watch the trial,that I realised the classic behaviour of someone who is a victim,Depp cowering, running away to hide to find a p,ace off solace, the fatigue in his voice from having to deal with this narcissistic harridan ,screeching and gaslighting him, the pathetic fake bruises, and her account of ‘horrendous’ assault she ostensibly received at the hands of Jonny were truly unbelievable!Given she was so prolific at documenting,with pics, audios, videos, yet her description of the assault from Depp was not matched by any pics!The one she tipped of TMZ was clearly faked, and she would have had contusions, and lacerations and broken nose if hit by Depp’s, hand wearing chunky rings, plus the lies about the bottle used for the SV would have needed medical attention yet none was sought! plus telling them she was dragged across a floor which had broken glass and cut her feet, yet the very next day she went for ballet practice, but not a single pics of her ‘broken’ nose her cut feet, , medical attendance! I think AH is so use to manipulating, and people believing her lies, like that useless UK judge, that she didn’t bank on the amazing work done by Ben’s team in interrogating her and exposing her lies! Her BPD traits were also evident on trial, and to me that very scary as these personality types don’t give up, until they really harm their victims!Jonny got out on time, but she is still after him, she is relentless! Depp’s lawyers must advise him to keep well away from this monster!
Amen
My story is similar. I agree.
It’s actually understandable, I think most of us are like that. If you see a person (typically a woman) winning, crying and said her husband or boyfriend beat him up, we tend to believe the person as she is a victim. And see, that was ambers point, to show herself as ‘I don’t want her money’ to prove a point..but it was a lie. But it was to deceive people that she was a victim. But it backfired..fortunately
So true, so well expressed, I really hope Ben, Camille and Co. get to see this comment! Much love to you!
I'm glad the camera was in the courtroom. AH ruined her own case. She lied and not a good actress. Ben and Camille are part of a great legal team. We got to see the truth come out. Best luck to the Depp team.
My grandson is a ( very dedicated to his clients) Public Defender in Fort Lauderdale, Florida & when the trial had barely started, I called him & said Johnny is going to win. Grandson was very skeptical, but I was certain when I saw Johnnys team of Attorneys versus AHs team & I was right & so proud of them
This was so awesome. Camille and Ben are exceptionally good at their jobs as lawyers, but from everything I've seen they both seem like even greater human beings. Such a pleasure to listen to them speak, I must admit I've missed them both! Well done to BHBA for this fantastic interview and thank you for sharing it with us!
Excellent interview. Camille and Ben are not only excellent attorneys but they’re awesome human beings and that is very evident in this interview. It’s easy to understand how Johnny Depp trusted them with his life. They care. I love that about them.
Ben and Camille are a class act----the best of the best! I was teary-eyed during Ben's closing statements and the moment JD looked up when he heard the emotion and sincerity in Ben's voice. That was one of the most profound moments of the trial. It was truth. The whole JD legal team had an uphill battle and yet they were steadfast and unwavering in presenting the facts and sticking to the facts and evidence. It showed the world that evidence and facts do and should matter in determining a fair and just verdict. Camille and Ben, I listened to every word of you both being advocates for truth and justice. And as a survivor of many, many things, I thank you both wholeheartedly!
Ty... Somehow I missed these two... BEN... CAMILLE you guys are absolutely amazing people. I wish you nothing but luck and prospect in your proffecional journey. I learned so much with this trial... And then again... Know not all.... But never to old ore young to learn new things. Ty for this
Definitely m8ss seeing them, they're so professional and this interview shows their h7man side.
I love them even more than I already did! Their preparation and belief in their client really showed.
The reason I love Ben & Camille is that they fought really hard for good to prevail. For a decent non-violent man to be free from the heinous accusations of an evil woman. The Force was with them.
Thank you, Ben Chew and Camille Vasquez (et. al), for showing us the truth. Until the trial, I had no idea Johnny was not only innocent, but also the victim. How sickening that the proof has been out there for years, but wasn't shown to us until court.
Fantastic video! I am a Fairfax County resident, and I was mezmorized by this entire legal team! True heroes of justice!
I believe that trials should always be televised, unless it involves children. All the lawyers were good however my favorite was and still is Ben.
Definitely. Imagine if we did not get to see the opportunity of how ridiculous AH "acted" and came off. You can see right through her.
Absolutely. If we had been lead by MSM we wouldn’t have seen the truth because sometimes I would read the days round up of MSM news on the trial I would definitely wonder if they had watched the same trial.
Not sure I agree. For actual abuse victims retelling their story can be traumatic. This is different because ah was running all over the place to talk about her story. In addition to the article, she has also given speeches about her (fake) experience
Great to hear from Ben and Camille. Camille certainly presented a masterclass on direct, cross-examination and redirect of the plaintiff, defendant and the witnesses. Tremendous teamwork. It was a compelling six week watch of this case progress to the final verdict.
They did an excellent job at exposing Amber's lies. She kept digging that hole deeper and deeper for herself. She never accepted responsibility for any of her actions and I don't believe that she ever will. I'm glad they got Justice for Johnny Depp. It was exciting to see Ben and Camille and the rest of the lawyers. They truly are an amazing team and they all did their part and it was great to watch! Each and everyone of them had a critical part in this case. Thank you for showing us the truth about Amber Heard!
They have no idea just how many people these two lawyers have inspired! 🙌
Camille and Ben; great lawyers but wonderful human beings! Thanks for the great video. 💕
I think camille and Ben are incredible, the whole team did amazing on Johnny's case!!! When I was watching the trial I just noticed and could feel through the screen how much love and compassion they had for johnny, I could feel how much they believed in him and I think that made a difference because when you believe in someone whole heartedly you fight harder for them!!! Camille and bens closing arguments in the trial for johnny were absolutely flawless, and I was in tears listening to their arguments knowing what johnny went through and the way Camille and Ben fought for johnnys honor and good name was amazing to see and I think they are just wonderful human beings!!!
Watching & listening to you all was so enlightening & interesting to hear everything that was said! As a layman I found that the questions asked were very insightful & as usual Ben & Camille were exemplary in finding the right answers for people like me to understand easily! I did watch the Trial in Fairfax every single day& I feel that as someone who has never really had anything to do with Lawyers, Courtrooms Trials etc., the difference in professionalism between the two sets of Trial Lawyers was obvious almost from the beginning! By the second day, I had already worked out which team of Lawyers that I’d rather have on my side. I live in the UK & the travesty of Johnny Depp’s first experience of British Law, well I had to hold my head in shame!! I was mortified as every day that Johnny came out of the Courts, from very early on I could see the hope in his eyes slowly disintegrating almost daily! The best decision that you ever made was to have cameras IN THAT COURTROOM! None of us would have known just how devastating Johnny as the plaintiff (with a much higher burden of proof) was going to cope with the situation that was in front of him. How on earth he kept his cool, I shall never know, with all of the tactical developments from your opposition & nasty little snide comments that they just couldn’t help but sneak in, I honestly think that your whole team kept him grounded! Oh & Camille, some of the looks that you received from the opposite side of the room from a certain person, that you couldn’t possibly have seen during some of your touchy-feely supportive moments were almost hysterical to watch! I ALMOST felt a tiny, very tiny bit sorry for the Defendant’s Team until they started with that tactic. It was then & only then that I realised why AH refused the Council that her insurance company had offered her. SHE STILL HAD TO BE IN CONTROL & it showed in flashing lights! I loved watching you all, starting to put myself into Johnny’s shoes, as all he wanted to do was to clear his name for his sanity& for his children! That Trial will probably stay with me for the rest of my life as I watched one man, who had nothing left to loose take the decision to cut himself wide open for the world to see just who he is as a man with incredible gifts, courage, fortitude & faith that at least HE got to tell the truth! Thank you Ben & Camille with all of your young team for enabling such a great man to do this & WIN!!! Gods speed to all of you . With regards from Samantha Anderson.
😭😭😭
Spot on!! well said!
What a great interview. I loved the story about the alpaca at closing:) These two attorneys, along with their team, rocked that courthouse by unraveling a pack of lies told by the defendant. They were able to tell the story about what really happened with evidence that was undeniable. All Johnnys witnesses seemed as genuine as him and this trial felt like one from the movies. The underdogs prevailed and the good guy won !! ( not underdogs because of talent, but because defamation is hard to win) What a wonderful job advocating for Johnny! The defendant and her PR team can try to gaslight the world with their words and twisting of evidence. Back in reality Johnny is touring , acting, selling his art, signing deals with Dior, etc. and is beloved by real people. I love a happy ending!
Yours is a great summary. The more we learn about Elaine, the contrast with Ben and Camille becomes ever more stark.
What a treat! Anthony you’re a stellar interviewer-wonder why? ☺️ Ben and Camille are as genuine, generous, intelligent, focused and professional as they were during the trial. Thank you!
They are so on it. Total rock stars, and you can tell they're good people, which actually is not a given for attorneys by any means.
Johnny told the truth and yes, they believed in him
These two are a class act and showed the world what amazing lawyers are all about.
I was once told by a lawyer "I have seen unwinnable cases won and unlosable cases lost". I can understand Ben Chew's hesitation about a confident win.
It was well deserving win ........defamation case is really hard to win but what we saw at the trial........like not only was he not the abuser he was the victim and that fact that he was called an abuser for 6 yrs there was no way he would lose....unless she had been a likable witness but she was not
Wow!!! What a truly great interview with 2 really down to earth people. They are both an inspiration to young people who are thinking of going into law as a career. The difference in class between them and Heard's lawyers is huge. Keep up the good work Camille and Ben 🙂
Thank you. This was a great interview. Ben Chew is emotional ( seems) while conveying Johnny Depp's reputation, putting it in to his perspective as being near his age... These attorneys ROCK$TAR$...
I agree. It shows remarkable empathy. An honourable man.
I watched gavel to gavel. I’m more of a true crime law junkie. The only reason I watched this case was pure curiosity since I kept hearing that defamation was hard to prove. About three hours into JD’s testimony I thought 😨 “I think this guy experienced narcissistic abuse.” (I’m a psychologist). Well, low and behold, as things unfolded, we know what the world saw. These two lawyers were phenomenal and I’m with Camille…I love being underestimated! That’s how you slay it!! Sending virtual hugs and high fives. Great work! And thanks for being honest about how hard law can be as a field. And modeling being lawyers with integrity!!
Ben and Camille (and the rest of team JD!!!) were like a lawyer supergroup. They were The Beatles of the courtroom. Stunningly professional, immaculate in their preparation and devastating to their opponents in execution. Just awesome.
This trial was so exciting. The questioning was spot on. I learned so much! I don’t believe social media interfered with the verdict because . Amber clearly was her own worst witness. She was clearly lying. Her acting was horrendous. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen her movies. Camille and Ben, you were fantastic totally out did the other side as far as expertise!
Completely agree!
You are right, let’s face it AH had her voice heard loud and clear for 6 years in all MSM platforms, and Depp was demonised! and sadly these very MSM platforms continue to back AH, despite the USA trial verdict! I can’t fathom how the MSM in their ignorance of legal due process continues to twist things as their ‘truths’, and attack Depp! glad Depp’s lawyers were so poise, and procedurally competent!
Oh, cmon? No love for Dennison? He (Dennison) just picked apart every expert witness Heards team had and in an expert way. I'm not taking anything away from Camille or Ben, but Dennison just shreded the experts Heards team put up. He (Dennison) clearly had read everything the experts (from both sides) had put into deposition and did a great job in explaining it all to the jury. (IMHO).
@@cassandrahey701 You’re right! The whole team worked together so well!
@@cassandrahey701 yeah I agree. I loved him too !! Especially with the weird guy... Dr whatever that looked like the back to the future guy 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Great Lawyers and great human beings, makes me happy that Johnny was well assisted and represented by these wonderful people!
I love Johnny’s law team. They worked together amazingly. I watched the entire trial and after seeing all the evidence there is no doubt in my mind that Amber and her freeloaders set Johnny up for years to blackmail him. She was caught in so many lies and her own words caught up to her. Camille’s cross examination was the best part of the trial in my opinion. Camille is a fierce lawyer and she really showed it in that court room.
When Elaine explained why they lost, she said, "I think that Johnny's team was better than us at confusing the issues." I don't think she realized just how much she told on herself. They didn't have the truth, so their strategy was to confuse the issues. All of Amber's team and Amber herself needed to shut up and talk less because the truth slipped out between the lies.
From Germany 🇩🇪 As a former victim (girl/woman) of abuse in childhood and marriage, I thank you so very much for everything.❣️🌹 I love and respect you Ben and Camille so very much 👌👍❤️💕 You are wonderful lawyers and human beings 💗💗💗
If I ever got to meet any of Johnny's lawyers I would tell them thank you so much for doing such a great job in helping Johnny Depp. They all did such a wonderful job. I would do that through tears. It would more than likely take me a little while to be able to get it out. Lol. They are awesome lawyers and human beings.
Super interview!! Would love to hear from the whole team too!! IMO Tom Hanks would be a great Ben Chew for the movie. I can hear the same quality in their voices and humor. Hanks would really transform into Ben Chew. The movie could be called “Deppamation!” Great hearing from these classy attorneys!! Bring the whole team next time!!!
Deppamation!!! 😂
Hanks is exactly whom I picture as Ben!
Hanks for sure!!
Oh! He'd be perfect as Ben. Great call. 🙂
Wonderful interview, credit to the interviewer and the two amazing interviewee The alpaca in Ben’s pocket was one the cutest part at the trail, thank you for sharing that story.
Ben and Camille are AWESOME! Camille, thank you for being an absolutely wonderful role model to women everywhere. You are an inspiration for all! 💜💜
Beautiful interview! Thank you all so much!
Now these are what you call real lawyers passionate, honest, trustworthy and fighters!!!!! My daughter is going to college next year and after watching this trial and the way Camille truly shined she might even go into law she absolutely fell in love with the laws the lingo and the discovery the way you use peoples own words agains them when they lie she absolutely fell in love before this trial she had no idea what she would do and now she is leaning towards law bravo!!!!!
First time listener. What a great stream. The questions posed were well defined, asked with dignity and actual curiosity. Both Mr Depp's attorneys answered great. Not giving out anything discouraging towards anyone. Quick thank you to all parties. Truth won out. Bravo to all involved.
They’re both so incredible. I’m so thankful I had a chance to watch this discussion with these two amazing and humble professionals 💯
What a difference in tone, between these two people describing mentorship, teambuilding, their approaches and attitudes toward lawyering with JD as the backdrop. That's what a real Dream Team looks like: Polished, professional, genuine. Had they lost, this interview would have been just as classy, respectful, and good natured. I've been listening to Tom Bower's Revenge, and it's difficult to avoid making comparisons between the respective presentations of something real, and something faked. I don't know that I'll ever see such brilliant lawyering again, but I think people will pay attention to the ingredients of brilliant team building, and what it can achieve.
What a wonderful interview! Camille and Ben if you happen to see this- or any of team- y’all deserve every bit of recognition! What a phenomenal job well done! This was the first trial I actually watched and even I could see what hard work and dedication went into this! Literally the dream team!
The “mega pint” thing is Epic. Used around the world now and listed in the Urban Dictionary as remedy for the pain of someone shitting in your bed. ROTFL
Fantastic interview! So much wisdom on 1 screen. It was delightful as well as knowledgeable!
Ben’s haircut lookin snazzy! Great interview
Thanks so much for interviewing these excellent attorneys!
Such a good Interview👏 Ben & Camille best teamwork. I really like all of JD lawyers they showed how it really works in such a classic way. I truly admiring all of them ❤️
I love Camille and Ben. They was awesome during the trial.
You could tell this was an incredible team that believed their client. I loved that they trusted all the young team members. It was very inspiring. So efficient and definitely out layered AH’s team. Loved Ben Chew as almost a father figure to the team and Johnny (even though they were around the same age-Lol)
Ben and Camille seem like such fun people to hang out with! Couldn't imagine a better legal team for JD! ❤
Terrific interview but I would like to say the respect your entire team showed to Johnny every morning was so impressive. It told me you were ready to fight for him and show a friendship to ease any anxiety. As the weeks went on he appeared to enter the courtroom knowing he was getting his story out and the media did not control the outcome. Bravo to you both and to your team.
The relationship they had with their client JD and the way they believed him was so awesome. These lawyers worked hard on this case. The closing argument was undeniable and powerful. Wishing you both well in your professions. I like the fact "my sister is a doctor and I'm a lawyer". What a powerful family
Very well done! Thanks for a great interview of Ben & Camille! This is the type of interview MSM would have appealed to M’s & should’ve been done. They would’ve got even higher ratings You did a phenomenal job!😉👍💕
i really appreciate ben and camille being candid and open about their profession so as to open peoples minds about the seriousness and personal investment lawyers undertake to work in that field- i admire the passion of an excellent attorney; the road is not easy to become a lawyer so the fact you have an endured energy around the field is standout for sure -
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Huge kudos to Dennison and the rest of the team too. Perfect example of what all round teamwork is. ❤️.
Such gracious lawyers. Professional is right! Bens humility and his leadership stand out. Camille is a little star! A great uplifting interview!
Thank you for this interview. I love these two. Such a great example of how to be professional, but also human. Having the mascot and the ability to laugh is so important. Thank you for believing in JD. He deserved to have someone fight for him.
Ben and Camille, your team, was such a breath of fresh air. I have seen some of the worse in law, so I did not expect that Johnny could win. When Camille took Amber apart, my disenfranchisement with what I have called the injustice system for years changed. So many things are still wrong with it, but your team and Azcarate gave me hope. Morality is so needed now. Thank all of you. I despise Elaine and Rottenborn! They sold their souls to the devil miss Heard. They knew better but did every dirty rotten thing they dreamed up-winning at any cost! They are the worst creatures possessed with demons 👹 Amber, and her liars were everything I have come to expect in a corrupt injustice system.
Brown Rudnick did an amazing job . What an extraordinary law firm . I'm so glad johhny picked them to represent him . Also I thought Wayne did a great job also. It was. So entertaining watching amber lies blow up in her face. I hope she gets help and let's johhny move on with his life.
What an amazing interview. They are such an inspiration to so many. The trial ending on truth is such a beautiful thing.
I have so much respect for all of you. Thank y’all for sharing what you do with insightful questions and answers.
Ben is so humble and kind
What thoroughly decent people they are. Sadly, a trait that seems to be dying. So glad Johnny had these guys on his side

"I love being underestimated." -Camille Vasquez 🙂
I am a legal nurse and I found the trail of JD and AH riveting. This interview was so well done and I appreciated the interviewer and the two attorneys candid answers. Thank you.
It would be great watching your interviews with other Lawyers of JD’s team since they worked so hard too. Please invite them. Great interview to watch !
I love Ben and Camille as well as the entire JD legal team. They ALL did an outstanding job, professional, compassionate, thoughtful, prepared, well represented!! I very much enjoyed watching each one!
This is what a power couple ( lawyers) can do !!! Justice for Johnny will forever be the goal. ❤️❤️❤️
I have zero interest in becoming an attorney but umm mesmerized by watching great attorneys show their craft. The conversation explaining decisions and their personal background were really enlightening. I believe many young people will think about fining into the legal field based on the professionalism shown. I can't wait too see who's Tony has as guests in the future
The public is CRAVING true & accurate reporting. Thank you 😊
Thankyou first of all for your authentic unwavering and professional support for Johnny and thankyou for ultimately giving Johnny back his life ! Xx ❣️
Wow! Ben Chew cleans up well!! He looks so different from the trial ☺️
The horrid MSM continues to label us as mad Depp fans, when I as a doctor had to deal with women victims of dv telling me they got triggered by the trial as AH to them behaved like their own abuser, with the lies and gaslighting! I had to tell many not to watch the trial as the triggering effect isn’t good for their welfare! I am not even a Depp fan, but watched the trial as it was important to do so, given my work! I am happy that the poor man’s voice was finally heard and believed! AH has a major psychological problem and instead of her lawyers pursuing the appeal etc they would be better off advising her to get therapy, especially as AH has a baby who needs an emotionally/ psychologically stable mother!
Great point. 💯👍👏👏👏💕
Mr Ben Chew I have to compliment you so much because in your closing, you choked up a bit. It just showed me how much you cared about Johnny Depp. Thank you and your team for giving Johnny’s life back to him. His reputation and principles were at stake and you saved him. I was also glad you brought up his life under an abusive mother where he would escape to his books and playing his guitar. Amber was Johnny’s mother back in a younger form. He never hit her back and didn’t report her when she cut his finger off. Your selection of Dr Shannon Curry was brilliant she explained who Amber is and just showed the difference between her and Dr Hughes. God Bless All Of You. 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
So sorry I didn’t mention Camille…. You are so smart and fierce and you faced up against the best that the other side had and you destroyed them. I am honestly so impressed. Thank you for giving Johnny his life back. I won’t say how I feel about Amber so I won’t get kicked off for this post. I was also very impressed with Mr Wayne Dennison who tore up their experts on the stand. Again thank you from all my family and me for giving Johnny Depp back to us🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
Thank you for producing this video and making it available on KZhead. I’m not a lawyer. I am however fascinated with this case and it was enlightening to hear a professional non-combative conversation with two Star attorneys. I would have to love to heard more stories about their witnesses and prep but this was great. I’m always so impressed with how friendly Ben is and charming Camille presents herself. Thank you.
