On Thursday (April 28th), Terence Dougherty, the General Counsel for the ACLU, testified in Johnny Depp‘s defamation trial against Amber Heard. Heard pledged to donate half of the $7 million she received from her divorce settlement with Depp to the organization, but it appears the Aquaman actress has not paid this pledge in full.
In a video deposition, Dougherty said the organization has received $1.3 million of the $3 million pledged. The organization also believes $500,000 of what was donated in Heard’s name came from Elon Musk, whom Heard dated after she and Depp split up.
Heard’s donations stopped after 2018, when Dougherty said the organization found out “she was having financial difficulties.”
