Am I missing something? IO backing up Amber's claims seems like it would definitely help her case. As now it isn't just Amber's word and IO is also claiming to have seen signs of physical abuse. Is it enough to make up for Amber's cross? Probably not but I would definitely say it helps.

On the other hand Rocky sounds like they should have been a witness for Depp and I have no idea why they got called by Amber's team. She literally made multiple statements that point to Amber having lied on the stand multiple times and doesn't back up any claims. A hugely damaging witness for Amber's side.

It's how he came across, which is horribly. He came across as someone who claimed he was the most important person in both Amber and Johnny's relationship and did everything for them and was just a self-important blow hard. He's a starfucker. He literally claimed to have never seen anything and that all of his information came from Amber and when asked to provide details on how Johnny was different on different drugs he would just get irritated and angry and essentially said he couldn't accurately explain why.

And his story about the last incident with the phone is completely different from Amber's story as well in some significant details.

The problem is that after Amber's stories had been torn apart and she was exposed as a grotesque liar, anyone backing her up as her friends also shows no merit. This should have gone on before Amber, because it would have been more believable then. Showing it now, after it's been pointed out how untrue and absurd that Amber's story is so completely in cross, anything else is just white noise unless someone has actual proof that isn't "I saw aftermath" or "Amber told me".

Like Rocky just said she never saw any physical violence from Johnny at any point. So why is she here? iO said he saw no physical violence. Again, why is HE here now? Nothing they do are bolstering any of Amber's claims in any sort of meaningful way. They aren't adding anything to Amber's stories. They're just here to go "Yup, I was also here and Amber was right about everything." It's pointless since it appears most of the jury already distrusts everything Amber said.
