Even just walking into this courtroom. Sitting here in front of the world, having the worst parts of my life, things I lived through, used to humiliate me."The 'Aquaman' actor recounted receiving threats from "people [who] want to kill me, and they tell me so every single day." She said, "People want to put my baby in the microwave, and they tell me that."Heard added, "Johnny threatened, promised, promised me that if I ever left him, he would make me think of him every single day that I lived.""I would not wish this situation on my worst enemy," she told the jury.
