Fans Are Now Showing Love To Johnny Depp After ‘Evidence’ Say Amber Heard Lied About Domestic Abuse

Many people are now showing love to Johnny Depp and calling for justice against his ex-wife, Amber Heard after new details surrounding his lawsuit against her surfaced online.

Earlier this month, Johnny Depp sued his ex-wife, Amber Heard, over her allegations of domestic abuse in her 2018 Op-Ed.

Depp’s lawsuit referred to Heard’s claims as nothing more than an “elaborate hoax,” and presented evidence that suggested he was the one who endured physical abuse during the marriage, not the other way around.

“The op-ed depended on the central premise that Ms. Heard was a domestic abuse victim and that Mr. Depp perpetrated domestic violence against her,” the complaint reads.

Though Heard’s Washington Post piece didn’t specifically name Depp, attorneys said the implications are “categorically and demonstrably false.”

The suit also states that Heard’s abuse allegations “have been conclusively refuted by two separate responding police officers, a litany of neutral third-party witnesses, and 87 newly obtained surveillance camera videos.”

The lawsuit refers to an alleged incident in which Heard threw a bottle of vodka at Depp, resulting in an injury that required hand surgery. The suit also accuses Heard of punching Depp as he was in bed, kicking him on numerous occasions, and even staging her own attacks.

“Unaware that members of Mr. Depp’s security team (including an 18-year veteran of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department) were mere feet away, Ms. Heard falsely began yelling, ‘Stop hitting me, Johnny,’” court documents state.

“The interaction culminated with Ms. Heard making false allegations that Mr. Depp struck her with a cell phone, hit her and destroyed the penthouse. There were multiple eyewitnesses to this hoax.”

The actor’s legal team say that Heard fabricated her claims in an effort to propel her career as the #MeToo movement was sweeping social media in a firestorm.

“Ms. Heard also knew that her elaborate hoax worked: As a result of her false allegations against Mr. Depp, Ms. Heard became a darling of the #MeToo movement, was the first actress named a Human Rights Champion of the United Nations Human Rights Office, was appointed ambassador on women’s rights at the American Civil Liberties Union, and was hired by L’Oreal Paris as its global spokesperson,” the lawsuit states.

Now, with new evidence supplied by Depp’s team, many people have taken to social media to call the actress a liar and also to demand justice for Depp.
