During his deposition, Carino was asked about an August 2017 text exchange with Heard, who wrote to him, “dealing with a breakup. I hate when things go public. C, I’m so sad.” The agent told the court, “I believe she’s referring to her breakup with Elon.” He confirmed he texted Heard with the writing, “You weren’t in love with him, and you told me a thousand times you were just filling in the blanks.”
He also confirmed that she texted back, “I know, but I wanted time to grieve and recover at my own pace.” Carino told the court, “I don’t know if she’s referring to Johnny or Elon in that line.”
In another text exchange, Heard wrote to Carino, “I hate that yet again a man is dropping me on my toes all alone.” Carino replied, “You could stop that if you stopped dating super famous people. You can be with a big man who isn’t famous.”
Earlier this week, in the final days of the trial, Heard’s lawyer read in court from a text message Depp allegedly sent Carino in August 2016, in which the actor said his ex “was begging for total global humiliation. and also referenced his relationship with Musk, nicknaming the billionaire “Mollusk.”
