A new statement from Ellen Barkin comes to light in which she claimed that Johnny Depp gave her a sedative before asking her if she wanted to have Love.
In the midst of the most media trial in recent years, a recorded statement by actress Ellen Barkin against Johnny Depp, used in the legal battle with Amber Heard, came to light.
It was in 2019 when Ella Barkin made the revealing statement accusing the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor of having violent outbursts and calling him "jealous" and "controlling."
Why did Barkin make this statement? Johnny Depp and Ellen Barkin dated for several months in 1997, after filming the film 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas'. Later, the actress assured that her relationship with the actor was purely s---al.
In recent days, 6,000 pages of documents that until now had not been public have come to light. Among them, new statements from Ellen Barkin that accuse the actor of drugging her before having s---al relations.
Thus, Johnny Depp's ex-girlfriend would have claimed that the actor drugged her in one of their first s---al encounters: "He approached me in the living room of my house, sat me on his lap and said something like, 'Oh, come on Ellen ', or whatever. I protested a little and then, not too much," he confessed.
While clarifying that she wasn't assaulted by the actor, she did highlight a crucial detail that could alter the entire narrative: "he offered me a Quaalude and inquired if I wanted to engage in s---al activity." Despite a significant portion of Ellen Barkin's testimony being part of the trial, this particular statement was not introduced as evidence to the jury.
Quaalude is a sedative-hypnotic medication that has already been involved in other cases, since a few years ago it came to light that comedian Bill Cosby used it to have s---al relations with women.
There are other statements by Barkin that have not gone unnoticed: "There was always an air of violence" around Depp, she confessed. And the actress described Depp as a "screaming" and "verbally abusive" man.
The last time the two had a relationship was when they met again more than a decade later at the Cannes Film Festival, but it wasn't exactly pleasant for Barkin.
"He called me from across the room. He brought me a glass of champagne. We sat on the steps and talked and I told him how badly he had treated me and he was clearly making some kind of s---al move," she confessed.
The revelations extracted from the thousands of pages of documents that are no longer sealed in the case do not stop for the moment, with shocking data for both parties.
