The jury in the Johnny Depp v. Amber Heard trial reached a verdict after six weeks of evidence, testimony, and discussion. Depp was declared the winner on practically every count. Heard’s countersuit was unsuccessful, but not completely.
Depp was granted $15 million in damages after a jury determined that Amber Heard had defamed him. Heard was paid $2 million for her defamation charges.
As soon as the verdict was announced, the internet exploded. The high-profile case has drawn widespread attention, with millions of people tuning in to watch every second of the trial. It is without a doubt one of the most closely followed public trials in recent memory. It was difficult to remain unaware of the trial due to social media.

When the Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard litigation reaches a conclusion, Twitter is flooded with memes
Johnny Depp did have a good legal team on his side. Camille Vasquez, in fact, rose to prominence as a result of her significant achievements in the courts. The internet adored her since she undoubtedly aided Depp’s victory.
One fan, on the other hand, seems to believe that the Pirates of the Caribbean star has another famous lawyer on his side.
Saul Goodman from the Breaking Bad spinoff Better Call Saul is one of the most popular lawyers on television, and other Twitter users had a same idea. His accomplishments include catching a variety of offenders using unconventional and impressive tactics. They ostensibly presumably include returning to the actual world and assisting Johnny Depp.

Despite her popularity as an actress, $15 million is a large sum for anyone, including Amber Heard.
Many have seen parallels between Depp’s ascent to fame as Jack Sparrow and Sparrow’s habit of eluding capture. The legendary statement from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was even repeated by some.
For circumstances like this, pop culture has plenty of references, and the internet hasn’t let us down. Some people were taken aback by Depp’s success.

The memes that were born in the courtroom have been resurrected, with amusing results.
Perhaps the win will be celebrated by everybody.
In the opinion of one Twitter user, there are only a few words that can adequately describe the trial.
Today was the day Mrs. Heard ALMOST caught Captain Jack Sparrow

For the time being, memes will reign supreme on the internet. The trial is officially ended now that the verdict has been rendered, but Twitter never sleeps. Over the next few weeks, Johnny and Amber will very certainly be reminded of the trial every time they go on social media.
