During the trial, Johnny Depp was reportedly questioned about the 'Boston plane incident'. According to the allegations made, Johnny Depp accused Amber Heard of cheating on him with 'rapist' James Franco.

The British daily's lawyer, Sasha Wass QC, also alleged that Johnny Depp made vulgar comments about Amber Heard in front of the crew members of the Boston to LA flight. However, Johnny Depp completely denied all these allegations and stated that the whole event was "quite a stretch of her (Amber Heard) imagination." A recording of Johnny Depp's 'howling' was then played in court, but the actor denied being the one in the recording.
Johnny Depp stated that while he did have a drink prior to the flight, his behaviour was not as alleged. He added that he was drawing art sketches in his notebook. The daily's lawyer then brought up a text that Johnny Depp sent to his friend Paul Bettany on May 30, 2014. In the text, Johnny Depp claimed that he would "properly stop the booze thing." He also discussed all the intoxicants that he consumed before the flight.
