        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Johnny Depp&#8217;s estate manager told a UK court Wednesday how he <strong>found the star&#8217;s severed fingertip</strong> in a trashed rental home &#8212; and saw cuts on Amber Heard&#8217;s arms.</p><p>Ben King recalled how he was “urgently summoned” in March 2015 to the blood-covered home in Australia where he “found a significant amount of damage, particularly to the bar area on the lower ground floor.&#8221;</p><p>“The mirror behind the bar was heavily cracked and there was broken glass and other debris strewn on and around the bar,&#8221; King said in a witness statement, with images being shown in London&#8217;s High Court.</p><p>“I was told that Mr. Depp’s fingertip had been severed. Whilst cleaning up the broken glass and debris, I looked for the fingertip and found it on the floor of the bar area,&#8221; he said.</p><p>In the witness stand Wednesday, he recalled the carnage in the rental home after the fight that Depp, 57, admitted using blood from his injury to <strong>scrawl graffiti</strong> about his wife on mirrors in the house.</p><p>&#8220;The bar area had the most blood. There was a trail of blood spots up the stairs, and blood spots in the bedrooms, in one bedroom mainly,&#8221; King told the court, <strong>according to Sky News</strong>.</p><figure id="attachment_5319886"  class="wp-caption aligncenter"><strong><noscript><img data- data-src="/uploads/2020/07/johnny-depp-finger-30.jpg" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" /><noscript><img  data-src="/uploads/2020/07/johnny-depp-finger-30.jpg" /></noscript></noscript><img class="lazyload" src='data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20210%20140%22%3E%3C/svg%3E' data- data-src="/uploads/2020/07/johnny-depp-finger-30.jpg" /></strong><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span>The bar area in the house in which Johnny Depp and Amber Heard were staying in Australia</span><span class="credit">PA</span></figcaption></figure><p>He questioned Heard&#8217;s earlier claims that her husband had damaged his finger when he ripped a phone off the wall and smashed it.</p><p>“I don’t recall a phone having been ripped off the wall, or having to replace a wall telephone,&#8221; he told the court.
