A juror in the Amber Heard vs. Johnny Depp trial has spoken out about the actress' behavior in court.

In an interview with the US program Good Morning America, he said that Heard had seemed unbelievable to him in the process.

It was as if she could just switch her feelings on and off.

She tearfully answered a question, and two seconds later she was freezing.

It didn't look natural."

Some of the jurors spoke of "crocodile tears," he says.

Johnny Depp seemed more "authentic" when answering questions in the process.

The jury consisted of seven jurors.

The man's name was not mentioned on the show.

After the six-week trial, the jury ruled that the two had been "abusive" to each other, but Heard could not prove that Depp actually used physical violence on her.

Therefore, the jury ruled that Heard had slandered her ex-partner because she had indirectly accused him of being violent towards her in a 2018 essay in the Washington Post.

Heard has to pay Depp ten million dollars in damages, she herself receives two million dollars because Depp's lawyer had damaged her reputation with statements about her.

"They had their differences between spouses," Good Morning America quoted the jury as saying.

“They yelled at each other.

That does not agree with either one or the other.

That's what happens when you argue.

But all the evidence she presented was not enough to support what she claimed,' he said.

The majority of the jury saw Heard as the "aggressor".

"If your partner is beating you up, why are you buying him a knife?" said the judge.

Heard said at trial that he gave Depp a knife.

"If you wanted Johnny Depp to get off drugs, why are you using them around him?"

In addition, the jury said the jury dismissed all testimonies from witnesses who were employees of the two, related to them, or friends of theirs.

They also did not take into account the statements of experts who had been paid by one of the two parties.

The jury also said they didn't trust photos that were supposed to show Heard's injuries.

Depp's lawyers had argued that one of the photos had been post-edited to make Heard's face appear redder.

The jury also found other statements about money that Heard had allegedly donated implausible.

Amber Heard in particular was viewed critically during the trial.

Heard was subjected to severe hostilities on social media.

Johnny Depp, on the other hand, was greeted by cheering supporters in front of the courthouse every day.

Under hashtags like #JusticeforJohnny, fans on the net had sided with the actor.

Despite the verdict and the end of the process, the interpretation of the statements by Heard and Depp continues publicly – Heard recently expressed himself in excerpts of a TV interview that is to be broadcast in full on Friday.

There she says, among other things, that she has no grudges against Depp and that she does not blame the jury for the verdict.

Depp is "a popular personality and people think they know him," she said.

"He's a fantastic actor."
