🧵A thread on debunking misinformation about the Depp v. Heard trial and malicious myths about Amber Heard.
Amber told Depp that no one could possibly think he’s the victim when he beat her so hard that he almost killed her and police were called. The media twisted it into “No one will believe you because you’re a man”, although she never even said “A” man.
Amber was apologising for the police being called on Depp when he attacked her. He acknowledged the assault, when she asked “While it [the assault] was happening? And he replied “Yes”. This was ecorded by Depp.
Amber did not steal her sexual assault story. Kate James, the assistant who claimed it, testified that she didn’t have access to knowing what Amber’s SA was as it was confidential. Their stories are entirely different.
Amber reported all of the sexual abuse to her therapist years ago, and fought for it to stay private. It was kept confidential from the public in the UK trial, but Depp wanted the US trial televised which brought her SA out against her wishes.
There’s many theories about Amber “faking bruises” but 11 witnesses testified they saw injuries on her. Here’s 3 of Depp’s own witnesses, testifying they saw injuries on Amber.
Amber documented her injuries from the beginning. Magazines and fans were questioning her “mystery bruises” in 2013-2016. She also opened up to friends and family about them.
A makeup artist testified that she covered Amber’s injuries for the James Corden Show.
Milani, a makeup brand, accused Amber of lying about using their product to cover her bruises, although in her testimony she stated that the product was not the one she used, but a prop to explain colour correction.
Amber donated her divorce settlement in a pledge. She never said she would pay the donation upfront, the agreement was always that she would pay it within 10 years. She was ahead of the payment schedule before Depp sued her.
Amber was entitled to millions more from the divorce, but chose the least amount she could. She also received it in instalments, which is also a reason why she agreed to pay it within 10 years, alongside taxes.
Johnny Depp saying on multiple different occasions that he was the one who cut his own finger.
Amber is not being investigated for perjury. No one is pursuing charges against her, and there’s no actual source to suggest otherwise.
A popular claim is that Amber “denied everything”, although she has always been honest about hitting him back, throwing objects at him and being verbal as a reaction to his abuse.
Depp denied everything, until evidence proving otherwise came out. He then tried making himself look like the victim. For example, he denied head butting Amber and when an audio of him admitting it came out, he changed his story to “I was restraining her”.
Many of Depp’s witnesses denied everything too. Stephen Deuters testified that texts of him apologising to Amber about Depp assaulting her were fake, then he said he didn’t send them and then finally admitted he sent them.
Their marriage therapist who was actually Depp’s witness, testified that Depp began abusing Amber and she eventually started to hit back and defend herself.
Amber said how the abuse began with Depp slapping her, how it evolved, when she first thought of leaving and when she started fearing he might kill her. Depp never gave an explanation or timeline. He took Amber’s allegations and switched the roles.
Amber did not weaponise Depp’s addictions against him. She tried everything to help him get better and sober. She attended multiple Al - Anon meetings, read books and watched documentaries about addiction and connected with women in similar situations.
Johnny constantly blamed Amber for his alcoholism and said it’s her fault he drinks, although he has struggled with addiction for decades.
Court documents revealed that Depp submitted edited photographs of his “injuries” and edited recorded conversations between him an Amber. His team refused to provide the full audios.
Amber did not defecate on the bed. She and Depp were separated and lived in different houses. The housekeeper found it. It is proven their dog had a bowel issue since she was a puppy after she ate Depp’s marijuana and had pooped on the bed / floor before.
Depp tried to “piss and shit” on his Hollywood Star with his friends. He also asked his assistant to poop on Amber’s room, years before their dog pooped the bed. He projected his behaviour on Amber to globally humiliate her.
Another claim is that Amber denied Depp his medication. What really happened is, she refused to give him his medication earlier than the time his doctor instructed. Depp spoke about Amber always being careful and mindful with his medication.
Depp messaged Amber’s mother about the detoxing trip (where he alleged she denied him medication), to say that he couldn’t have done it without Amber, that she helped him get sober and better, and he’s grateful for her.
Johnny met with Amber and brought a knife. He threatened her with it by trying to make her cut him, calling her a “pussy” for not wanting to and then wanted to cut her. When this was played in the trial, the media called Amber “evil” for it.
Another myth is that Amber made up the term “monster” to vilify Depp. In this conversation, Amber is asking him what she should do when he becomes abusive, and he told her to remind him to not bring out the monster.
Amber and Johnny talking about the monster again and what happens when Depp “splits”.
These are two audios. In the first one, Depp tells Amber to remind him every morning to not hurt her. In the second one, he is praising himself for putting the monster away in Australia. It is beyond obvious that Amber did not come up with it.
Amber’s family does not support Depp. Her father said he hates him and her mother always supported Amber, however she passed away in 2020. Her sister testified for her and shows continuous support for Amber.
Pictures of Amber wiping her nose while crying after recalling her trauma went viral because people joked that she was doing cocaine on the stand. The tissue was given to her by the court. Depp also wiped his nose, but no one suggested he did cocaine.
When Amber was a teenager, her license got suspended over speeding tickets. Depp suggested that she committed vehicular manslaughter because her childhood friend was killed in a car accident. His fans believe it and use it against Amber.
Here’s a few examples of what broken noses can look like. Amber testified she needs surgery for her broken nose, however Camille Vasquez objected to her medical records.
Amber did not accuse Depp of pushing Kate Moss down the stairs. She specifically stated it was a rumour she heard. People still call her a liar, although she never claimed it definitely happened.

🧵Thread: All of the times evidence of Johnny Depp being abusive came out but the media twisted it against Amber Heard and called her an abuser for it. (Content warning for abuse, sexual assault, self harm)
People use the “Tell the world Johnny” audio against Amber because she said no one could think he is the victim after he abused her for years and made her fear he could kill her. The full audio is one of the most damning pieces of evidence against Depp.
In the full audio which Depp secretly recorded, he berated Amber because their friend who heard him abuse her called the police. Depp confirmed the assault and Amber said no one could possibly think it was “fair”.She never said “a”man.
