Wow, this woman makes assessments without ever having interviewed Johnny Depp. Unbelievable. She is a poor example of a clinical psychologist.
She had no choice, he wouldn't see her.
Well, she assessed JD through tabloid write ups🤣
No dude, she is a magnificent expert, she can asses a relationship knowing only half of the story! Totally unbiased /S
She is the kind of therapist tha does not help people, and prevents them from getting better. Prolong the agony for that person
It's funny how everyone sides with Depp. What if they were both abusive to each other? That sounds likely to me, in which case Johnny loses. Johnny's teams' psychologist was very poor: she diagnosed histrionic PD. That diagnosis has been discredited for many years.
You can tell this woman is absolutely on Amber's side. There's a lot of money floating around this room and it bet she was paid well with how she speaks.
I hope the judge can sense that too.
@@pratyashi191 me too 😊 but I personally since she's biased on Amber's side as well. Yesterday she questioned a certain evidence and Johnny's lawyer had to explain several times as if she didn't see it before. That's concerning..
@@pratyashi191 Unlikely, shes also a woman thus in her nature to sympathize more-so with another woman . But I do hope she possesses wisdom.
History shows; past Judges did not always have wisdom.
@@stormking1973 She's a judge first, then a woman here. I hope JD wins!
@@stormking1973 that's not the case . I'm a women and a former victim of dv, yet I believe that johnny was the victim here. Johnny's lawyer made good points about the psychologists use of he him pronouns when talking about the perpetrator of dv, and she her when referring to victims
Wow, wow and wow. I AM a Doctor in Psychology, specializing in both clinical and forensic psychology. I have been a licensed mental health practitioner for over 20 years in Florida and I am blown away at the veracity of this so called expert. To sit in court and make the assertions that she has made without ever interviewing both parties is truly insane. Most of these experts are nothing but hired guns, hired because it strengthens one side over the other. In my 20 years plus of experience I have only testified as an expert twice. Why you may ask, well let me tell you why. As part of my agreement I must meet with all parties involved and I will report it as I see it. Most of the time my findings are not what the hiring legal team is looking for. Therefore, I get paid for my time and never get called as an expert. This “expert” is doing a huge disservice to my profession.
Veracity? Maybe you meant audacity?
But yeah this witness is scummy af.
I think that's the question bredehoft asked to dr. Curry whether if she would not be testify in court if her examination doesn't provide anything to depp's defense
@@bluehazard2 correct.
They just keep shopping for an expert witness that is beneficial to them. And that's the only one they bring forth at trial (obviously)
@@drebk Might explain why this one's so bad; slim pickings
Is veracity the word you mean or something negative like mendacity or duplicity?
Veracity
/vəˈrasɪti/
noun
conformity to facts; accuracy.
"officials expressed doubts concerning the veracity of the story"
Similar:
truthfulness
Opposite:
falsity
habitual truthfulness.
"voters should be concerned about his veracity and character"
They change the tone of your comment drastically.
What kind of an insanity is this? Without even looking at the man she reached the conclusion that Depp was abusing Amber? I think she needs a psychologist for doing this..
Incredible. She’s a psychologist and stated that she could judge someone without even meeting him ever. That’s why Ambers legal team hired her. It’s scary when a person’s arrogance is over her knowledge.
They hired her because they've worked with her before. No surprises there.
Her personality traits are in synchrony with Ms. Heard - that's why she was hired....
She looks like a person who responds to money more than logic.
That's not disgusting, that's just basic rationality; If x then y...
Example: IF Amber Heard was abused by her partner THEN the person who is her partner abused her.
IF what she is saying is true, and the psychologist provedd it to be true, then simple rationality allows the psychologist to make a literally undeniable assumption... If its true...
is she a witch? a fortune-teller or something? how can she judge someone without ever meeting them…
"I never met with Johnny because typically we see cases where men are the aggressors... And Miss Heard told a very convincing story" Thats essentially what she just said... Wow
En qué minuto??
From 0:00 to the end
Don't forget paid a boat load too.
She actually said that it was her understanding that JD didn't sit for psychological evaluations, thus she never saw him. She also plainly stated that "there are limitations inherent in that" - [in assessing a relationship with information about, but no personal evaluation of, one of the parties]. I heard it, I'm sure the jury heard it.
typically--gender stereotype story--(speaks for itself)
This woman admitted having no experience testifying about male spousal abuse where the abuser is a female.
No matter what the jury decides, whether they see what we see or not, Johnny saved his reputation in the eyes of the world and confirmed the respect and admiration his work earned him for decades.
Amber, good luck in the afterlife to you... In your gold digging career
i wonder if anyone from hollywood would take amber heared... such a fake snitchin betch...
And good luck to Johnny in the afterlife in his quest to get as loaded, abusive and stinkin’ sloppy as he wants and still able to score a beautiful woman almost half his age. Particularly, since money won’t mean a damn thing. Right? How silly can humans be?
@@TheresaLyonhart
Where is evidence of Depp's violence ?!
That is what the case is about. Not being 'loaded', verbally 'abusive' or 'sloppy'.!!
Why would she need to have experience testifying to be good at her job?
That’s like saying you can’t be good washing the dishes until you testified in a court of law.
Wanda, like so many, are sad human beings. Worshiping celebrities like gods isn’t a way to live your life.
@@TheresaLyonhart Recently created channel trolling, big surprise, post your info you coward
That lawyer is smart af. His line of questioning baits you in and corners you, you have no option but to say things you would rather not. Polite too!
He definitely did his homework. The question about pay and the error in the transcript not being corrected imay have the jury "query" her truthfulness.
This woman is the last person I’d have testify on my behalf.
She’s very gruff.
I think this lady has BPD...haha but im not qualified to diagnose her...oh wait that doesnt seem to matter here does it! Hahahah
Everyone on Amber's team, is an utter joke. Apropos, for this witness to be on her team.
Love Johnny, but this doc is sharp. She’s got the attorney all flustered.
If you're of the male gender, probably yes.
She’s a hostile witness, her anger towards men and particularly in this case is evident she is trying to sway the jury!
lol most of the jury in this case is male, she's digging herself a grave
Exactly
@@Raresstanciu1 nah that's not how it works, look at all these male reporters attitude towards Johnny, in fact all the female reporters have been somewhat generous towards Depp a lil bit.
Don't forget the jury is mostly consistent of men, so I don't think this is working in her favour.
Man hater allegedly
This lawer is very smart. He kept the Psychologist by her neck. The last part about assessing the relationship by only questionning Amber Heard is right on point. He did it respectfully.
18:35 She basically said you can get both sides of a story by talking to only *ONE* side. 🤦♂️🤪
Respectfully? If anyone spoke to me with that nasty tone I would level him. She kept her cool and more than held her own.
@@TheresaLyonhart lol if you resort to "leveling" anyone then you're an unhinged person and this is clearly why you're an Amber Turd supporter.
@@TheresaLyonhart įįšš
YTTYyuu
This lady annoyed the crap out of me & she was reading her notes, which isn't allowed & I loved when Johnny spotted her doing it & told Ben!!
This woman is awful! Imagine how many lives she must have ruined , she being involved in 50 + cases as she stated.....
Doesn't bare thinking about if she herself is a untreated cluster b
YOU ARE RIGHT. SHE IS NOT SOMEONE WHO I WOULD SEND MY LOVED ONE TO. SHE IS UNETHICAL.
But how johny like person trapped to her?he has good brain.but still how he trapped.
Money 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵 Speaks.
@@vyasjwalit3999 She was acting nice and cute.
She just ruined her own career. Dawn Hughes is the most unprofessional "psychologist" I have ever seen. Just awful. Hope she gets thoroughly investigated after this. This is just disgusting. She must be stripped of her license.
Yesss You're Right
Unfortunately this is par for the course for all medical "professionals" today.
I hope so too, but since I believe she practices in CA, the CA Bar or AG, probably won’t bat an eye.
I wonder how much money she got from Amber heard to do this
@@jnnkmm $500 an hour she said today
I do think it’s telling her only examples of men being abused are children and men being assaulted by other man, not a single example of a man being abused by a woman. I don’t think she really cares about male victims of female abusers even if she says otherwise.
The tone of that lawyer’s voice, in addressing a professional, is demeaning and nasty. I wonder how much money Depp is paying his little team of lawyers for representing him?🤔
@@TheresaLyonhart they’re lawyers. The whole point of the. Is to discredit each other enough until the jury is swayed
@@TheresaLyonhart this is perfectly normal questioning and tone of voice. They aim to unnerve and 'break down' other lawyers and witnesses of all sorts as well as the opposing person in the trial.
Absolutely agreed! She talks about psychologists having this bias though, only to display it herself. Very sly!
@@TheresaLyonhart yeah the tone is horrible, very much like the tone Heard's lawyers have. it's their job, and I get frustrated listening to lawyers pretty often too, but it's just their job in these situations. it's not the lawyer's job to be fair or understanding, quite the opposite
As a soon to be psychiatrist I can clearly say, without the shadow of a doubt, that this woman is extremely biased and unprofessional.
I don't know how she achieved all those accolades, or a board certification for that matter, without anyone suspecting foul play. My head of psychiatry was made aware of this clip and he said, word per word: She would have been fired within a week in my hospital, such shoddy and biased work really brings disgrace to our profession and that's the reason why a lot of people don't trust psychiatrists in the first place.
That being said, I'm not american nor I work in the US, in our country doctors tend to be scrutinized way harder. People like Dr. Hughes, generally speaking, don't get to work in the medical field at all.
@Chezco Not really true, but I'm sorry you've had a bad experience. Find a better doctor. Those doctors are quacks. SSRIs dont work forever, don't expect them to. There are far more treatment options than a SSRIs and any doctor worth his degree should have explored those with you before they ever threw you on an SSRI. SSRIs are dangerous.
@Chezco You ever try having a daily routine with Kava? It takes some practice, a bit of patience to get acclimated, but once you get the effects it can really give you some peace for some time each day.
@@inawrocki207 is that the root from the islands that you mix in water to make a muddy drink?lol
@@timothyclark796 Lol It is. It's absolutely wretched. It's also, ironically, the only state-altering substance that doesn't make me absolutely sick.
Find a new profession, being a professional liar and ruining other's lives or assisting them in destroying their own lives just seems bad and wrong.
JDs attorney is no joke, man. His arguments are extremely to the point. They make it very evident what they are trying to clarify with their questions and the witness digs their own grave. Very good legal team.
He’s also assertive. With the US court cases I’ve watched, the good ones sound like that. Ambers lawyers sound scared to ask questions. Night and day difference
I think it is more due to the fact that this woman has so many holes in her story. The Psychologist that did an analysis on Amber Heard for JD's team was rock solid on everything she said and backing every comment she ever made with more foundation on her points.
@@akanuwolf yes I strongly agree, I feel like JDs team is going to use this information against them
AND he's being polite, calm, doesn't interrupt the witness for no reasons etc. Night and day compared to AHs team. That's actually refreshing
He’s an excellent lawyer. Many lawyers like myself are watching this case as a learning tool
She’s getting so flustered and emotional on almost all of her responses. Nothing like the previous psychologist we have come to know and love.
Exactly
She becomes more redish by every moment, at the end of her testimony her face was pure red. Also when she talked with depps lawyers she would look at them and when talking to ah lawyers she will mostly try to look at the jury...
She was there and was looking sexy AF
She was a target for a very definite sociopath. Unfortunately, many Psychologist/psychiatrist have a plethora of issues themselves. The good ones can see past the B.S. of where the person is pulling the wool over their eyes. There are some psychs who also have an agenda and side with women/men based on their own issues. This is obviously one of them. If she can't spot a phony/sociopath she's a terrible psych. It's why the defense hired her. Easily strung along
Yup. When you are on the dishonest side, it is tough to win any real argument.
"You can't assess a relationship without talking to both parties can you?"
Dawn: "Yes you can". First of all, how is she even a psychologist, or in any position of power whatsoever when this is how incapable of basic thought she is? All I see is a bitter old woman, not a professional. I'd go as far as to argue that she's probably landed more than just one innocent person in prison with her bias.
I agree with all of this!
Yes! Yes! Yes! And I'm guessing she didn't lose one wink of sleep about it! Ugh!
Apparently you can if you were paid 500 bucks an hour... 😏😏😏
She isn't being paid to give a true professional opinion, she was paid to side with Heard and argue for her lies through the lens of her profession. Two VERY different things. The board who she is responsible to need to review her status immediately.
Dr Curry: "It is not the job of a psychologist to determine whether or not an event took place".
Dr Hughes: "Johnny did it".
It's so true
On point
An ancient Chinese saying, which may sound bad, plays well here... "the ugly creates the drama"
@@zikunzeng5871 sounds good to me. Very fitting
@@zikunzeng5871 I love zhangs
I don’t think she should have used any pronouns as an expert. “Victim and perpetrator” are what I believe an unbiased expert should use .
They/them also works. Just refer to victims and perpetrators. We do this in business and management when talking about management interaction. (Managers would do X and in turn employees will do Y. They intend to do something etc.)
Its basic professional courtesy.
Pardon me, but what's wrong with using pronouns She and Her? Isn't Amber Heard a woman? I'm slightly confused!!!
@@marjanp4784 using speicifc pronouns comes off as being biased and generalizing an entire gender to fit a narrative.
As an expert, she needs to be objective and non biased and state that both sides have a point and not just label all men as 'abusers' and all women as 'victims' such as what this so called 'expert' is doing
@@marjanp4784 it's wrong cuz a lawyer can do just this it brings in doubt .
btw i live in the netherlands and i follow the story!!
"I'm not making $100/hr that was a mistake"
"Oh okay, then how much are you making?"
"$500/hr"
Bro she impaled herself with that wtf
This lady has more than likely had innocent men put in prison there needs to be an investigation into other cases she has been involved with
She reinforced the notion and statistics of women being victims and men being the perpetrators with all her biased assessments.
Excellent point! She is truly scary, her woman- biased hatred of men is clearly evident. WHY wouldn't she review all the assessments, reports, and data AND interview both parties? I hope she is disciplined and her personal attitudes and practices reviewed. Professionals like her are dangerous in their work with such vulnerable clientele.
Dear God this woman absolutely refuses to defend a man against a woman, she's defended or sided with MANY men but only when the other party is ALSO male. She's terrifying
Yes! That was huge, Depp’s lawyers should’ve poked around that a little more
That’s terrifying, and it goes to show you why ordinary people have so little faith when it comes to our legal system. You can buy and pay experts if you have the cash.
Well she did claim that a woman abusing a male is not a big thing. That since he is bigger and stronger than her it doesn't amount to anything near as bad as men abusing woman. That when a woman is abused they feel trapped and helpless. And that is something that johnny doesn't feel.
She is a pos.
Depp's lawyers , one point at a time, shredded this radical feminist.
she should be sacked and have any medical licencing revoked...and all the cases she has given testimony in should be reviewed.
Any Psychologist understands that when they only speak to one partner they are getting a biased account of the relationship dynamics. For this woman to testify under oath as a witness for Amber without ever meeting or speaking with Johnny Depp is beyond malpractice.
She seemed to have no belief that a guy could be abused, calling all abuse from Amber "if true" or "a response to his violence".
Oh really yet Depps team paid for a clinician that didn't evaluate depp.
Well said. I totally agree.
She only wants one side. She's a professional paid witness for anyone that will pay her.
This, as the husband of an MHP my wife is beyond shocked at this, she works in FP and would never ever ever testify w/o talking to both partners.
Dennisson is a SAVAGE! I think this pretty much proved AH legal team resorted to unethical practices. Reason why they were all borderline unethical during the course of the trial
It is scary to think that this is a so called expert that is beeing used in the legal system🥶
The fact that an "expert" psychologist claims that they can assess a relationship without talking to both of the parties tells me one thing: unqualified.
Exactly …👍
Yep
Oh but she’s not an expert witness but you should definitely trust her “expertise”
Would someone PLEASE tell Amber to drop the suit and get out of town while she may have just a little bit of dignity left. This woman is destroying what is left of her career. She is still young to be all washed up but it looks like that is what is going to happen. Will anyone be surprised to read/hear in 5 years or so she is broke. I won't.
True
This is crazy she makes assessments without meeting Johnn?! How is this even considered worthy of court testimony? Dare I say...HEAR SAY!
21 min ago… 😳 Xavier get some sleep buddy
hey man
Good bot.
Hey dummy, she’s assessed Amber.. why would she need to meet Depp? Why? She wasn’t assessing Depp, she was evaluating Heard.
@@drjasper100 sir dont call him dumb, to be involved in cross examination and to make su h a vital and crucial assessment such as the one she made she needed to have been talking to both sides and assessing equally what is happening. The fact that she assessed amber only indicates bias and unprofessionality!
This totally breaks my heart for those lives of people she has come in contact with that she was paid $500 an hour to destroy.. Shame on her.. I hope she never makes another dime off others misery.. Listening to her I was talking back to her! She has no common sense as to what she was doing! This is book sense NOT common sense.
I absolutely agree with you. The sheer arrogance of this woman is insane. The amount of money she extorts from people who actually need help is mind boggling.
I agree
Yup! U gotta wonder how much innocent men were sent to jail cause of her
I wonder how many men’s lives she has destroyed being an “expert witness” in family courts.
I assume 50
Now she is a psychic...she hasn't met Johnny Depp, but knows he is an abuser.
He is a heterosexual male; that is all she needs to know.
She knows everything 😁
The other therapist made a compelling comment on how therapists can be biased towards their patients and this was an excellent example of that: this woman is 100% on Amber heards side
This woman is being paid handsomely by Heards' team of Lawyers. It's all about the money.
You mean Dr. Hotness?
It annoyed me that her lawyers tried to make the other woman look bad because dinner was served while she was meeting with Johnny and his lawyers like she would jeopardize her career for a nice dinner and drinks.
And she may lose her license because of it as she also filled out all of Amber's testing questions.
no shitting my bed sherlock lol
Strange how throughout the line of questioning they were no objections can really see the difference in skills of both attorneys
This so called expert witness left me in total shock. I'm sitting here with my jaw on the floor. Unbelivable that she think she is able to evaluate a relationship only from one side. I thought it took at least two to tango. Isn't that a relationship? Or is it really possible to have a relationship with only one self? I never knew you could, but ok. Today I learned something new, obviously........Unbelivable. I've never come across a more biast socalled expert, before.
“Always takes two hands to clap “ a very old saying 🤦🏽🤷🏽♂️
Well you would also if you were paid 500 bucks an hour... 😏😏
As a psychologist who deals with ipv, she’s an absolute disgrace. Someone needs to review her cases asap. Her claiming that psychologists should check their bias’ and then her coming in with nothing but bias is hilarious and the “battered woman syndrome” is quite outdated and was originally published as a way of discrediting the “battered husband syndrome” in the 70s/early 80s. Not only does she need to brush up on recent studies but she also needs to take her own advice and check her bias which is harmful and reinforces the male perpetrator stereotype; it’s especially damaging in cases like this one.
The fact that she provided an assessment without meeting Johnny or as she saw him, “the perpetrator”, is a huge red flag and she should never have been allowed to testify in the first place without having the insight from both sides. Disgusting.
Well said.
I don’t think you should be allowed to have anyone testify for you when you’re paying them that right there says they’re gonna say what you want. Also my question is, Isn’t that her job to just meet with the one person she was hired to talk about
@@kthomas5149 the difference between AH and JD hired psychologist is that AH psychologists gave a foregone conclusion about Johnny without evaluating Johnny. So if she only evaluated AH, then fairly the results should only revolved around AH at all.
She also said...hearsay. That she understood Johnny didn't want to do something. That should have been called out.
For her: men can be the victims, but only when the perpetrators are men?! I'm surprised Depp's team didn't catch her on this point. She completely feigns ignorance, or disregards mentioning, where women are the perpetrators in IPV against men.
The attorney laid out clearly that this psychiatrist:
1) Is a money chaser
2) Never testified for a male victim abused by a female partner
3) Made her evaluation without ever talking to JD
The difference between this attorney and AH's team is night and day
JD's team? Because, this is exactly how AH's team works lol.
i love how she corrected that she isnt paid $100/hr, but $500/hr like its going to help the defense.
@@cerebrumexcrement She was so proud of herself too. 🙄
Psychologist, not psychiatrist- big difference.
@@ChristopherBergsten err... JD’s psychologist met with both Amber and Johnny, had fully balanced experience with both male and female victims, and was honest and consistent on the stand.
I bet her credibility flew out of the window on that and with her practice!!!
I'm kinda hoping that the people who gave her this power are hearing this. I think her license should be revoked just by admitting to the fact that she only got one side of the story. She doesn't deserve $500/hr nor does she deserve her license. This was absolutely disgusting to see her malpractice and going to court like that.
It’s clear she’s bias, I hope this woman’s license goes into review. Therapists like her cause more harm to people who genuinely need help.
Fully agree
@aaron singer ok autocorrect thanks for that (sarcastic voice)
Exactly
@aaron singer lol look at this fine specimen past comments. Accusing people of idolizing a celebrity and has multiple posts on this trial. Put the phone down.
@aaron singer You used the word “dumb” incorrectly.
I’m glad that the lawyer pointed out that she continued to use ‘she’ instead of unbiased pronouns
yep and notice she is backpedalling
Yes!
This was so obvious and wrong, I'm glad Depp's lawyer is addressing that directly
Cause Johnny’s lawyers are good.
I was slightly miffed that he didn't refute her claim that she was only using them in direct relation to the case, and not in a general sense. She was totally using those pronouns in a general sense, indicating an inherent bias.
Despicable. This woman isn’t operating as an expert, she’s operating as a juror - but with information (and payment) only from one side.
I can't tell you how sad this makes me. I'm 67 and as a child when I say my mother beat the hell out of my father time and time again while saying if you lay a hand on me ill call the cops. During this time men were thought to always meant to be the abuser. If my father had defended himself and she called he would have been jailed no matter what. This women is no better than those police at that time. It's because of people like her the balance of justice is still unbalanced. She is a travesty and should be investigated.
I am so sorry that as a child you had to see that. Yes abuse against men happens very frequently but it's extremely under reported , even in this day and age.
I'm a psychotherapist and this Dr is the perfect example of the wrong reasons someone becomes a mental health professional. The need to feel above, important, in control. Whether Dr Curry is correct or not in her assessment, her response was professional, not personal like observed here....
I remember reading that a vast amount of psychologists/therapists have disorders themselves. It takes crazy to deal with crazy. Even so much as reading that one therapist intentionally got her client to break up with her bf so she can start dating the clients BF.
As a fellow psychotherapist with 13 years experience I completely agree.
I’m a research psychologist and I agree, too.
Yes! This woman is awful. For me, she gives off very negative energy.
Dr Curry was EXCELLENT 👏👏👏👏
The fact she has never met Johnny is going to torpedo her testimony.
dont think so ... i am no expert and a absolute johnny defender BUT external data/facts/report save a lot of time on her part of the work. I see her point, still to access a realationship at least one meeting should be required, but thats why she is an "expert" and studied that profession.
Claiming someone did something based on your client’s work is Hearsay, Amber’s lawyer’s favorite word. In other words, Amber’s team is contradicting themselves
@@victorwallec2534 But she is expert witness in this particular case so of course it matters.
@@dandx67895 thats true, but she mentioned medical reports and i think she meant also reports of depps pscholgy condition by other "expert" on their field ... + (those lies of heard are consisent with the facts givinen in those reports)

The turd in the bed, the cut off finger, audio reports ect. are bomb shells, but this stuff in the video is no comparable and only over convuluted in my opinion
@@victorwallec2534 She never met him though thus she only has Amber's bias and lying side. The fact that she doesn't see this and has never testified for a man against a female abuser means she has no merit.
This is a terrible person!! She does not look at both sides of their story!!!!!
the attorney is hoping to show the jury that this woman is a hired gun for anyone who pays her AND she is biased against men.....i would love to know what the jury thought of her...
She is literally abusing her position of authority. She cites the literature, but then argues feelings as it pertains to evaluating a relationship without meeting with both parties. This is why people don't take psychology seriously.
I couldn’t have said it any better myself. 👏
You must know that in the cases of various forms of abuse, PTSD, and so forth, when there is a legitimate perpetrator, either they cannot be located or refuse to come in, and (absent court order) it is always their right to refuse to come in. It is not a stigma to refuse and proves nothing either way. Hence these disciplines _have to_ develop ways to determine whether the patient is being truthful. She explained that under direct examination.
Shouldn't you say Psychologists? You said you're fine with the literature, but have an issue with that woman adding her own opinions, ergo the problem is her.
Well said
@@lcunash8093 The problem with psychology is the execution, by psychologists, ergo there is a problem with psychology.
“I’m not making a conclusion on Mr.Depp himself”
*proceeds to say that he was the abuser*
LOLOLOLOLOL!! Soooo TRUE! Good catch.
A self report of a headache at a doctors is MASSIVELY different to a self-report of being abused, which is what amber reported. Such as broken nose from a headbutt, swelling, bruising. ETC. These would get checked and documented
Yes. "I used female pronouns because I was referencing this case." No you were not. You were referencing IPV in general. There is no excuse. She should have said "A victim enters into a relationship with good intentions.." etc. She does know better. I believe she intentionally chose pronouns to sway the jury. Outside of that, she's being a WHOLE lot more cautious about her wording in cross than in her initial testimony.
They VERY CLEARLY asked her a question about IPV as a phenomenon, and she explained it in terms of women being victims and men being abusers. It was such a blatant lie it's incredible, I hope the jury caught that. Neither Amber nor this (somehow) board-certified psychologist that her team brought to the stand have any credibility.
In fairness, the vast majority of victims of IPV are women. (I am NOT an Amber Heard fan so don't freak out, I'm just saying the discussion around this case needs more nuance, it's all got way too black and white)
@@Erin-ho8qu Except when testifying she should have NEVER used those biased gender identifiers. Victim and abuser should have been used, not he/she.
@@Erin-ho8qu She is a forensic psychologist. This is a legal case. It IS black and white. That's the issue. This woman has been writing forensic reports and giving testimony for over 20 years. This particular speech she gave she's given hundreds of times. She chose her words very very carefully, and chose to portray victims as females and perpetrators as males very purposely. During her testimony she made several of these errors - not just with her use of genders here, but repeatedly claimed things that just were not supported by the data, and on cross-examination she got way more careful about what she was saying.
when asked about her bias, she started with "I believe men can be PERPETRATORS...as well as victims. She could have just said men can be victims. It is a psychological ploy to word associate while appearing to answer the statement. She is totally trying to create a bias in the jury. The lawyer should have shed light on her techniques to give them less power, instead, they appeared unnoticeable and natural.
the fact AHs team let this lady testify for her makes me think theyve given up on the case HAHA

I suspect ANY case she’s been involved with in the past will lead to those accused asking for a retrial due to this lady’s quality of work done.
With this in mind, it doesn’t mean all her victims came to her with lies. The true victims she helped out will be the ones hurt because their cases will likely get a retrial.
This lady is just bad for the system.
or have her done for purjory as she is lying about facts
To elaborate on this, I think the specific law, if it exists, would be around how "comprehensive" an assessment should be to qualify to be used in testimony. An assessment consists of "methods" and each method should be peer reviewed and accepted in the wider scientific field. She may well have used established peer validated methods, however, she could have easily left out other methods that would have contradicted the case she was trying to make. There needs to be a law to protect against this. I'm sure there already is, mad if there isn't!
What stood out to me about her testimony prior to this was exactly what Depp's attorney pointed out. Specifically she used this "female victimhood" by saying something about parents being concerned and wanting to take care of "their daughters" as it pertained to domestic abuse. I
That bias stood out to me, hope it did to the jury.
I can't imagine any juror missing her chronic insistence on using she/her, in a transparent attempt to sway them. Personally, if I were a juror I'd be offended that she thought me so stupid.
Attorney: "You can't assess a relationship without talking to both parties can you?"
Dr Hughes: "Yes you can, you can get a lot of information from one party absolutely"
This is exactly why in family therapy while my mum did all the talking and I was only met with half the time- and sat in silence of fear of speaking up anyways- the psychologist had no idea what I was going through because of my mum. My mum has PTSD, OCD, anxiety and depression, and she coudn't regulate her emotions well with all of that and took it out on me and my teenage years were miserable. But all the psychologist saw was a battered down mother with all the things listed above who had bratty children. I didn't get help for my own plethora of issues until I got a personal psychologist. So no, you can't get a lot of information from one party. You can get a whole bunch of BIASED information for sure.
Hugs 2 you

It's so obvious and I have no idea why this isn't a standard requirement. But I guess it's a service and they'll happily take the money in exchange for a biased evaluation.

@@sihanchen7552 LMAO truee
The fact that she says she has played a role in many cases is deeply disturbing. Someone should re-evaluate those cases. I can't help but think you will find at least 1 person who was unfairly treated due to her expertise.
Her ‘expertise’ 😂
"expertise"???
She sounds like someone who makes A LOT of money off people's misery.
Good point. I suppose many of those people can't afford a team as Mr Depp do to demolish a professional layer
I think we will find atleast 1 male who was served justice
Thanks Dan Tom, good call.
She’s the type of witness very few lawyers would want on the stand. Not only is she hostile and argumentative, she makes illogical conclusions that only buttress the position of the lawyers that pay her.
I'm just imagining this psychologist testifying that some regular John/Jane Doe partner is violent, without ever having evaluated them. Their lives could be ruined by this kind of practice. I don't understand how a psychologist is allowed to form an "expert opinion" without interviewing both parties.
She tries the well ive done hundreds of cases like these so that means that this new case must be like this. Which is absolutely wrong when you have to look at both sides objectively. Glad the lawyers for JD ratted this bad woman out. 1 down many to go.
@@mishswb4950 this is riveting!
Of course she’s good at what she does, her office has been in an expensive street in Manhattan since 2005.
Let's not forget that she contradicted herself on several occasions and bent the rules of the courtroom by reading from her notes when specifically told not to. She didn't recall anything. Even Johnny's lawyer had to take notes. Something tells me that's how she passed her exams in school, especially if she does this in front of everyone in a courtroom, which has cameras pointed at her.
No way. Because of her, probably 100`s of people were hurt. Please make a research on her, you will find a lot of mess. How can we call such kind of person a professional????
This is truly disturbing knowing the damage that was done to people in the past and ongoing cases. Yikes!!!!
"I've testified in hundreds of cases."
"I only testify 1-2 times in a year."
So she has been doing this about 50-100 years and if she started testifying at the age of 18 then she's now 68-118 years old.
Her face certainly says so. Lol
Lmao
she worked on hundreds of cases, the vast majority not going to trial
But it does make you wonder how many court trials she has , testified in that ..are actually criminal trials as there would most , definitely be some perjury charges there .. seriously some people are so dumb when it comes to courts of law and what you can and can't legally do ..makes my brain hurt
@@0Y0L I'm cackling at this hahah however i think the distinction lies in the vast majority not making it to a court case such as this @Black
She is the perfect witness for AH. Arrogant, self-righteous, argumentative and just wholly unlikable. She is not fact finding and she is obviously biased. Her entire entire statement should be tossed out.
I do believe she could be used to further demonstrate AH’s abuse of Johnny. Her testimony itself (the witness and AH) is a continuation of the psychological abuse.
This is disgusting. How in the world this monster gets to keep her credentials after bold faced lying over and over again on record in court blows my mind.
They need to review every case she has ever done.
This woman needs to get investigated and license revoked
Good thing to note is how the attorney treats this witness. He never interrupted her, allowed her to completely answer a question (even if that answer wasn't favorable), and never spoke in a very demeaning tone. Total opposite from AH lawyers
He's probably following that old rule to never interrupt your enemy when she's making a mistake... or maybe he's buying time and selling her 'rope' to hang her arguments with.
none of that "we need to respect the court's time" BS
RGB23 Well spotted and said!! 👍
last time he let her speak in full session which is why now he has plenty of her holes to poke
Rumpole of The Bailey said “Cross examination does not mean you examine someone crossly”
How’s she “credible” if she didn’t meet with both parties? Take her out of the courtroom what a fool. She should be investigated after this
Yes!!! Send her ass to trial 😡

@@Anon-xd3cf he’s saying that she should’ve interviewed Johnny and asked about his side of the relationship. She has only heard ambers side
While one could argue that both experts were biased toward their clients, this lady is far, far, more biased. It is plainly obvious.
@Advanced Driving The one glaring thing, in proving her bias, is the fact that she has never, not one time in her entire professional career, testified on the part of a man who was abused by a female. If you listen to her testimony, honestly, then you will pick up on many emotional emphasis that she puts upon Johnny's actions, even though she never, not once, met with him or witnessed the alleged events. EG, when she described a transcript she read were Johnny "allegedly" walked out of a couples counseling session (where Johnny did not lose hus temper, but instead, removed himself from a potentially volatile situation), she described it as, "he STORMED out of a counseling session". Also, the fact that she diagnosed trauma before administering the proper tests, and blamed Johnny for their volatile relationship without ever meeting him in person. I could go on, but every word I've written here is true and proves her bias, beyond doubt.
@@jamesmaness6308 advanced driving wasn't talking about the "expert" in this video.

@Advanced Driving sorry for the long winded reply, about tge wrong expert, LOL! As for Curry, one could argue that she was sought after by Johnny's team of lawyers to be biased. Please keep in mind, I believe this is a very weak argument, as she truly comes accross as being steadfast in her testimony and logical in her conclusions, but that's the only thing I can think of that could be argued as bias. IMHO.
This "expert" was evasive and she knew fully well what he was asking and deflected constantly.
the fact that she believes, not only as a personal opinion but on a professional point of view, that you CAN asses a relationship with only one point of view. excuse moi? this is so toxic??
This is so wrong , you have to see both people for a big case like this
@@latoncangelose1250 she's a professional witness and she's says that herself
@@chiragarjun3270 THIS was shocking! Exceptional work on behalf of Mr. Depp’s team. 👏🏼
🤣 If that's true we can also end this trial without any evidence or testimony from Amber Heard's side, and she should never appear in court because we already had Dr. Curry
If the perp refuses to engage that's also an indicator...
I'm watching this with my sister who is a psychologist. She's shocked at the stark difference between Dr. Curry and Dr. Hughes. The tones are very different too. While Dr. Curry was articulate and very professional, Dr. Hughes sounds angry. Anyway, it's crazy that she would label men as the abusers and the women as the abused. Her patients should find a new doctor she seems to be doing more harm than actually helping patients.
She seems to be the typical anti-masculinity third wave feminist. Graduated with one goal in mind and that was to bring down the patriarchy via helping women even when they’re in the wrong. She’s an example of why so many Americans don’t trust any kind of “professional”.
Not just that, but with Dr Hughes I’m noticing a lack of muffins…. Without the muffins involved the attorneys had to focus on the case! No one wants that! Lol
Funny how a "board certified" is looking like a clown in court than the one that's "not board certified"
@@WanderingMind_ actually ...might be something more folks need to learn...the value of board certified is not only overrated but possibly compromised more than it is reliable.
Also Dr Curry never pointed her finger, where Hugh seemed to make out that men are always the abusers, she said that JD was highly abusive where as Amber was only mildly 😕😳 was always a male perpetrator when she gave examples 😲
this woman's aggressive and passive-aggressive, it's definitely the way of acting of someone that wants to send a message rather than fix a problem. its extremely biased and very unprofessional for a psychologist, let alone a wtiness
what's her name, I'm filing a complaint demanding her to be fired & stripped of her practice licence.
edit : Dawn Hughes, never mind.
This woman is the definition of a Karen on stand. She's already broken so many rules like reading from notes for her testimony when she's not supposed to, ignoring evidence in her assessments, and making judgements on depp when she's never even met him.
The most annoying part is the constant smug look she has on her face the entire time while doing it.
YES. A Karen. Clinical Karen.
Along with AH lawyer SUCH A KAREN!
you hire those who are most like you
@@tiffanyl4829 or maybe a "Tiffany"
The reason she testified as she did was because she is promoting Blondie, so everything she said was hearsay. A real therapist would refer to the person as their client. It has nothing to do with Karen....
Johnny's side used a psychologist that spoke very unbiased and kept saying things like "those things are beyond the purview of a psychologist" or "that was not my task" or "that doesn't exist in psychology". This woman on the other hand is willing to bury someone on a "she said!" Without pictures or records of broken bones or stays or any proof other than words.
💯
"Experts" like this have caused people to be put to death.
Is she a MeToo feminist too?
@@kevinjanghj probably
Does it bother anyone else that all these witnesses keep looking at the jury and not the lawyer asking questions. It’s really irritating that they are doing it
My concern is, what happens to Amber's daughter if she's proven guilty and in the worst possible scenario if she wins at all, after all the evidence we've seen so far and her being diagnosed with suchha violent personality disorder, will they still allow her to keep her daughter?
Who’s supposed to be… the baby’s father? (Poor guy!)
If she's as unstable as all the evidence suggests she is I doubt she's capable of raising a kid without child abuse being added to her ever long list of sins. If she's gonna physically & verbally abuse her spouse & siblings why would she draw the line at her own child? For the sake of her child they should try finding the father.
Hopefully not. That baby is in a very dangerous situation
Such personality disorders can be controlled ( not cured, though) by proper medication AND therapy. People with BPD can and aboslutely live happy, successful lives and marriages, and raise good families.
I'm a psych student and even *I* know that you can't come to a conclusion without talking to both parties since people can still manipulate psychologists/therapists. Just cause you study psychology and how people behave doesn't mean you're already immune to being manipulated.
Look what you learned if a burned out starlet tells you it is so, no need to speak to the other partner! Lol this witness is a fool 🤣
Everyone believes amber and did before she spoke today and told her side is that not the same thing
Ok but do you not think it’s biased for depps forensic psychologist to meet with him & his legal team at his house for dinner and drinks before she evaluated amber? She went into the evaluation with pre conceived notion that amber is crazy and abusive
@@alicialapchak5449 exactly, both sides are entitled to hire a biased 'professional psychiatric witness'
@@alicialapchak5449 at least she met her.
This doctor is weirdly defensive and hostile. She is totally a professional witness. How can you make an assessment without speaking to both parties? 🤔 it's mental. ANYTHING Amber has told her is hear-say.... unfortunately her testimony is damning as well, because it's purely emotional. The whole "Gone Girl" bottle thing is just ridiculous. If JD HAD done that, AH would NEVER had hung around. Ever. She isn't suffering ptsd, nor was she ever in fear for her life, that's obvious in all recordings and interactions we've seen between them. She provoked him every way possible. I feel sick.
You mean unprofessional ?
@@DMOWAIVERS not necessarily. There are people who in essence do nothing but be a "professional" witness. She has all the degrees and education and talks the good game. I was a pro bono paralegal in a case where a guardian ad litum NEVER worked a day in her life but was always called upon to "interview" the parties and always sided with mothers...we had her recused from my case after tracking that. Why do you think JUSTICE is blindfolded? It's whoever tells the best story!!!
@@DMOWAIVERS no, I mean getting paid as a job to testify. Sorry, I didn't explain it well lol. She charges $500 an hour... wow, right?
@@maureenmcdonough700 I wasn’t sure what she meant. I understand what you’re saying though. Behavioral and verbal cues can get you places.
@@julianaFinn ooh okay I thought you meant like how she behaved or her abrasiveness.

That was awkward. He could have just said, "How much of your income comes from testifying or creating documentation used in court cases?" and gotten the response he was after. He also should have gone after her admission that her claims of recalling situations where the male was the victim were only same sex cases.
Too bad Johnny Depp cant afford a hard hitter like yourself
It’s actually confidential. Somebody’s earnings is treated like their socials, or phone number or whatnot, at least legally. That’s why the lawyer was very specific in phrasing his question.
Soooo ... She's basically saying "A man can be a victim of sexual abuse ... if another man is the perpetrator"? She doesn't rule out that men can be the victim and as an example she gives same Sex relationships ... that's low
She is a prime example of why people do not respect the field of psychology

I’m SO GLAD this lawyer brought up the fact that she was only using “she/her” as the victim & always the abuser referred to “him/he” !!
I get the vibe this Dr has some serious anger issues towards men. I get she focuses on women victims but sounds like something pushed her so far that way
@@GooseyGoWooWoo yeah, money
The answer to the Question at 6:31 really hammers this "Experts" bias home too.
Couple this with the Lawyer specifically bringing up her saying to "Pay attention to gender bias" before leading into this line of questioning. It was undoubtedly done to ensure that the Jury would be keeping "Gender bias" in mind for these subsequent questions.
Her reply clarifies quite clearly she has only exclusively treated, made reports for and testified IPV cases where the male is the victim of another male. Explicitly stating "Same Sex" couples.
Meaning she has never done so in male & female cases, where the male is the victim and the female is the abuser.
@@soulsurvivor8293 thank youuu I’ve been looking for someone to comment this cuz I didn’t know how to word it 😂
Her unprofessionalism is classless. The tone in her sarcasm her arrogance her attitude is disturbing. Does she think the jurors and public can't see through her unprofessional behavior? She's way to personally invested.

What a disgrace for psychologist she should have her license revoked she's doing harm. This psychologist doesn't know a damn thing she S paid to say whatever wants her to say and that Johnny is the one who initiate the abuse when in reality it's Amber everything she said Johnny did to her is what she did to Johnny
She looks towards the jury almost with the same frequency as Amber. I would surmise that she also gave advice, based on her PowerPoint presentations, on how to conduct herself in the court.
She is basing her evaluations on a prejudicial basis, never having met or conferred with Depp. She is argumentative and unbelievable in her testimony.
Abusers will not talk to evaluators. He refused to be evaluated. Red flag.
@@Ohioblues What? JD never refused to be evaluated, she clearly stated that she deem JD not to be stable enough to be evaluated.
@@Ohioblues yeah because she is a saint right?
Her answers clearly indicate an inherent bias relating to "Female on Male violence". Only refers to Male on Female, Male on Male, Female on Female with the exception of defending women who have killed their Male partner "as a result of domestic violence".
One possibility is that she has never encountered such an event (extremely unlikely given her claims as to number of cases handled) other is that she refuses to take such cases and the third is she is being deliberately "opaque".
In real cases of abuse and PTSD, when there is a legitimate perpetrator, they often cannot be located or refuse to come in, and (absent court order) it is always their right to refuse to come in. It is not a stigma to refuse and proves nothing either way. Hence these disciplines _have to_ develop ways to determine whether the patient who does come in is being truthful, evasive, guarded, or exaggerating, etc. She explained all that under direct examination.
I don't blame Depp if he declined to be evaluated by her, and I don't understand why Heard agreed to talk to the muffin lady.
That woman shouldn't have authority, she's a professional testifier, she's paid to make Amber win not to tell the truth
As is all those depp pays
@@ASHMANDAN the difference is the expert witnesses on JD side have a unbiased testimony record lmao.

This woman is doing nothing other than collecting a Payday
God she is so painfully defensive, she can at least say "yes" to some questions there is no way every question is a "no"
Normally I roll my eyes at lawyers picking apart words of testimonies, but I definitely noticed that she repeatedly referred to victims as "she" and "her" when NOT specifically referring to this case but speaking generally about victims of abuse.
Ok I'm on Johnny's side but on average more women are victims than men in straight relationships so that is not that strange
That was pissing me off yesterday too. Surprised it took so long to bring it up.
Yeah, she basically implies women are the abused.
@@Shasha-jo5iv Men don't go to police in abuse cases and abuse from females mostly is attack on character. Physical abuse is definitely domain of men beacuse on avarage we are stronger but abuse comes in many forms.
@@Shasha-jo5iv Yes on average that is true. But individually it is not. Every case need to be treated separately based on the evidence presented and not based on the "average".

They should respect that every person man or female could potentially be the victim and need to be objective first.
