Heard’s team change course on Johnny Depp testimony

Amber Heard’s team will not call Johnny Depp to the stand, a source close to Ms Heard said, a strategic U-turn in the last days of the high-profile trial. Ms Heard’s team had planned to call Mr Depp for more questioning on Monday, but changed course without explanation at midday.
