Johnny Depp’s Sister Is Expected to Testify as A Witness
In Johnny Depp’s defamation case, the actor’s sister is expected to testify.
According to The Independent, Debbie is on Heard’s list of potential witnesses and will be able to testify whenever the trial restarts.
According to Merriam-Webster, certification is “the act of making a formal declaration under oath for the purpose of establishing a fact (as in court), making a statement on the basis of personal knowledge or belief, or testifying or serving as evidence or proof.”
According to OK! Magazine’s accounts, Debbie’s involvement in the case will be her first, unlike her on-screen sibling’s other sister, Kristi Dimbrowski, who testified on her brother’s side back in April.
Dimbrowski, a film producer, has testified in the past that he recalls Johnny’s late mother, Betty Sue Palmer, being abusive, but that Johnny “never got tired” of their mother despite her aggression.
