I really haven’t been paying attention very well, and I really haven’t cared too much, but the general impression I am getting is the while he’s fvcked up, Depp is nowhere near the douchebag we thought he was and Heard is far more frigging insane…

Yeah. Basically they're both nuts, but she's evil and he's simply crazy.

Yeah, I think his mom abused him or something? But it’s sounding like he shouldn’t have lost his movie roles the last few years, and that has cost him millions thanks to the whole #believeallwomen

You’re referring to the expert witness, the psychologist who was answering questions on the witness stand, right?
I am not quite sure what you mean by “witness >> lawyer” in this instance. What do you think of the expert witness? What makes you arrive at the expression “witness >> lawyer”?

I'm sure this is true.

The witness was significantly more physically attractive than the lawyer.

Well, #believeallwomen and the nature of the allegations against him perfectly fit the particular brand of evil-crazy Heard suffers from.

The MUFFINS!!!!

[George K]

She is a really good witness. She answers the questions appropriately, and calls out mischaracterization by plaintiff's attorney. She shuts up when appropriate and lets the legal team fight it out. Under direct examination, she looks at the jury, explaining things. She's engaging and human, smiles.

You can watch her testimony here (with commentary by an attorney as is progresses) here. Start at about 1:30.

Edit to add...

Watch this cross examination with comments beginning at about 4:21.

Secondly, I am surprised that Depp hired her. She is a great witness, as I said, and she seems to hold up under cross very well. But, the fact that she is not board-certified, though not a direct problem with respect to her ability, does paint a bit of a negative picture to the jury ("Why aren't you board-certified? Did you fail the exams, or just couldn't be bothered?"). One of the finest surgeons I ever worked with (open heart) never got his boards. He'd never find a spot on a staff today.

I think it is inappropriate to talk about that witness without mentioning how physically attractive she is.

A commentator on Rikeitas feed says that the trial should be decided by a mud-wrestling match between the psychologist and Heard.

The dinner and drinks line was particularly disturbing to me.

In what way, that Heard's attorney was trying to mischaracterize the meeting?

Bigotry against the physically attractive. Something with which I am unfortunately very familiar. The lawyer’s assumptions that Depp and the witness had a romantic relationship is no different than assumptions that people of color are criminals.

[Horace]

I just learned that Ms Heard was married to a woman for several years before her relationship with Depp.
