Who Framed Johnny Depp?

Hi,

 

I'm a graduate-level trained social psychologist and statistician. I have an advanced Masters degree in Social Psychology. I finished 6 years of my PhD before an IPV situation ended my academic career. My training included field-work in women's prisons regarding addiction, IPV, and more. I will be performing an ongoing social research project into the Johnny Depp case. Let me begin with a background.

 

I was never a Johnny Depp fanboy. I appreciate his work and knew he was a good actor. Now, however, I love the man. His courage and style are unprecedented. When I first heard of the UK trial, I dismissed it all as celebrity mumbo jumbo and paid little attention. When I heard of the US case, it was different. Different because the details resonated with me. I too am a survivor of severe partner abuse; physical, sexual, psychological, and even institutional-level. Johnny's courage inspired me to begin something. As I was rebuilding my life from rubble as a disenfranchised academic, I had found a purpose.

 

I dialed into the trial and began noticing inconsistencies. I dove into the evidence. I read reports from online guerilla journalists like That Umbrella Guy, That Brian Fella, Laura Bockov, and others. I dove deep into the connections and actors involved. I pulled hundreds of articles down from the internet. Ran thematic analyses and cluster analyses on sophisticated software (more items that are out of my price range for full licenses). I've found enough inferential evidence that points to nefarious actors that I will be writing my first report of many to the FBI and IRS. I will share these reports in time. That brings me to the thrust of the fundraiser.

 

The contractors I'm hiring for artwork and private investigators I'm hiring are not free. The labor and time I'm putting into analyses, reports and articles deserve recompense. I'm no youtuber where I can monetize videos. I'm a social researcher and investigator. A writer and reporter. I'm also a single father of two teenaged boys. I also must handle Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis each day. As you can gather, fundraising for this is honorable.

 

In order to continue this quest, it will need to be funded. This is no short-term project. I originally had the budget set very high. I've since lowered it to reflect a 3-6 month period. Overall, I estimate a three-year endeavor. Over that time I will release reports and articles from a secure server (another aspect that requires resources). I will also release expense reports here on a monthly basis as to keep my funders in the know.

 

I hope you will join me on this fantastic journey. Even a small donation will help.

Some of the working budget details include:

 

- Curating artists - $1k - $4k for long term, $50-75 per piece for the short term;

- IBM's Statistical Analysis Software License - $8,700 first year fee (I don't need this. Yet);

- NVivo analysis software - $1,249 (scalable)

- Private Investigators - $100-$200/hour depending on task.
