Final witnesses were called to testify on Thursday in the defamation trial between Johnny Depp and ex-wife Amber Heard, a day after Depp unexpectedly returned to the witness stand.

On Thursday, Depp’s lawyers began the proceedings by calling Dr. Richard Gilbert, an orthopedic hand surgeon, to the stand. Gilbert testified he believed Depp’s claims of how his finger was lost were legitimate, as it was severed by a “sharp laceration.”

Dr. Dawn Hughes, a clinical forensic psychologist, was then called again to the stand to rebut testimony from Wednesday by Dr. Shannon Curry.

Lastly, Heard was called to the stand by her lawyers to rebut her counterclaim against Depp. “I am harassed, humiliated and threatened every single day,” she said.

Upon cross-examination, Depp’s lawyer Camille Vasquez questioned Heard about several elements of her testimony, implying Heard has been untruthful in her claims.

The trial is now in its sixth and final week, one that has provided an ugly glimpse into the couple’s toxic relationship.

Depp is suing Heard for libel in Fairfax County Circuit Court over a December 2018 op-ed she wrote in The Washington Post describing herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse.” His lawyers say he was defamed by the article even though it never mentioned his name.
