Depp had the charm offensive. I know quite a few family lawyers who watched the trial while working and noted that Depp is just too damn charming. If a lawyer could take that away from the trial, it would be hard for a layperson jury not to be captivated by captain jack sparrow.
Also, on judge rulings and issues, that is why we have appeal courts. Judges mess up all the time, sometimes they are appealed sometimes they arent. For example, the UK decision could be appealed based on the weight the judge ascribed to specific evidence etc.

All court cases should be done through virtual generic avatars, with voice re-modulated as a neutral computer synthesized output. Get rid of bias.
