🧵Camille Vasquez, in one of her smear campaigns against Amber Heard, recently suggested that Amber shed no tears in court. This is a lie. To see it, firstly, here is a zoomed video of Amber in her 2nd day of testimony. You'd be blind to not see the tears. #IStandWithAmberHeard
Here's the video without being zoomed. I can still see the tears, can't you? For those that are skeptical, this is from the second day of Amber's testimony, which was the 15th day of the trial on May 5th. Go check it out. (Source: Sky News YouTube channel) #AmberAppeals

Here is a zoomed video of Amber's Australia SA testimony. It tore my heart to shreds going through this testimony just to get this clip but given how much Camille and Depp fans continue to lie about this, I felt I had to do it.

Here's the preceding video without being zoomed. Again, I can see the tears even here. This was also from the second day of Amber's testimony, which was the 15th day of the trial. (Source: Sky News YouTube channel)
I saw a JD fan claim, when cornered, that Amber only shed tears in later days of the trial. However, see this zoomed video of Amber from the very first day of her testimony on May 4th. She's talking about her love for JD & the two sides to him that tore her apart. #AmberAppeals
Here's the video unzoomed and a bit extended. I can still see the tears. This video was also sourced from Sky New's YouTube channel. #AmberAppeals#IStandWithAmberHeard
This is just a sampling of some of the times that Amber shed tears in the trial and by no means did I try to find all instances of this. I hope that it is enough to, once and for all, get rid of the lie that she never shed tears. #AmberAppeals#IStandWithAmberHeard
Such are the tears that court photographers captured and that the jurors saw. The juror that spoke out even mentioned them but said that they were "crocodile tears." Depp fans have been lying that MSM faked these tears in court photos. Do not believe their lies. #AmberAppeals
Note too that there is no way that Camille could have missed the tears if even the jurors saw them, because she had a better view of Amber on the stand than the jurors. As such, Camille blatantly lied in the recent interview in which she claimed that she never saw any tears.
That said, it should go without saying that the idea that a victim-survivor not shedding tears in her testimony means she's lying is misogynistic hogwash. In addition, crying needs not always be accompanied by tears in every single human being. #AmberAppeals#IStandWithAmberHeard
Still, I had to debunk the idea that Amber shed no tears because I am tired of it being misogynistically and fallaciously used to smear her by both JD's fans and by his lawyers led by Camille Vasquez. #AmberAppeals#expertsforamberheard
Tellingly enough, JD's fans never ask why JD himself actually never shed any tears. Let's explore this a bit by way of one eye-opening example. #JohnnyDeppIsAnAbuser
This is the closest to tears that I saw JD in the entire trial. It's during the playing of the audio where he's asking Amber to cut him and Amber is trying to stop him from it. (This is a form of abuse by the way.) Do you see any tears from him? Notice how Amber is distressed.
Just minutes prior during the playing of the very same audio, Depp chuckled 3 times while listening to it! Notice how Amber is consistently distressed even while he chuckles. Yet, the jurors never thought his "tears" later were "crocodile tears"? Do you see the misogyny yet?
In the end, it seems to me that Amber was never going to believed. People had already decided that she's a liar before she even got on the stand. She could've shed oceans of tears and people would still have prejudicially called her a liar. #AmberAppeals#IStandWithAmberHeard

🧵A super long list of truly awful, bizarre, and downright weird shit “nice guy” Johnny Depp did that most people don’t know about. #JohnnyDeppIsAnAbuser
(Kamilla’s THREAD)
Johnny went on missions with bestie Marilyn Manson to buy nazi memorabilia. Manson has several Nazi inspired tattoos and it wasn’t the first time he went to go buy some fucked up nazi shit. The two have matching tattoos and Manson is Johnny’s daughters godfather.
For his movie “the Lone Ranger” he played Tonto. Basically cosplayed as Native and when he got shit for it he said he’s actually part Native, which there is literally no proof of. Native leaders called him a pretendian and he got lots of scrutiny for it.
#IStandWithAmberHeard as she takes the necessary step towards moving on from this nightmare... and with her voice intact. I find it telling that Depp put no gags at all on her, which makes one wonder why he sued her in the first place. (To globally abuse her, which he did)
I love how Amber Heard is using her voice here to make it clear that the US trial was a joke and that it was a traumatic experience for her that she cannot endure for a third time. I believe her. #IStandWithAmberHeard#AmberIsFree
Amber Heard speaks about the detrimental financial, psychological, emotional, and physical effects that Depp's litigation abuses on her have had on her. She also makes it clear that she will keep using her voice for advocacy. I love this! #IStandWithAmberHeard#AmberIsFree
Kamilla's🧵THREAD. What #that man did to his ex wife is nothing new. It’s called DARVO and it’s used by abusers to portray themselves as the victim, usually by framing the victim’s reactive violence as abuse. Here are a few other cases in which DARVO was used.
In 2009, Chris Brown assaulted Rihanna in a car. He punched her repeatedly in the arm and face, and put her in a headlock causing her to slowly lose consciousness. He maintains that he did this because Rihanna was hitting him.
In 2021, the cops were called on Brian Laundrie and Gabby Petito after a witness reported a physical altercation. Upon arriving on the scene, Brian was able to successfully convince the cops that he was the victim because of his injuries. Just days later, Brian murdered Gabby.
JD fans like using the "I hit you" recording as evidence that Amber Heard is the "abuser". But, besides this, what this and other "incriminating" recordings of Amber show is that what she says on the recordings can be relied upon as truthful. Think. So: #IStandWithAmberHeard
1/
when she tells JD in one recording that he "beat the shit" out of her, you better believe that she's telling the truth. Otherwise, why believe the "I hit you" recording and refuse to believe her here? Even more to her credibility is that JD does not deny it in the recording.
2/
Similarly, when she says to JD here that she had bruises from his beating and that it's JD that provokes, you better believe it. Again, JD also doesn't deny her accusations in this recording, which adds to her credibility. He only deflects and tries to accuse her back.
🧵According to the #JusticeForJohhnyDepp "real victim" gate-keeping brigade, a "real victim' would not, for instance, fight back, "goad on" their abuser or belittle them, or buy them a knife as a gift. Yet, using this same bogus logic, one can't help but ask:
TW: Self-harm threats.
1. Is this how a "real victim" behaves? Forcing his "abuser" to cut him and also threatening to cut her? JD fans like to excuse this with the idea that JD had been pushed too far by her, but wouldn't one say the same about the times that AH reacted?
Sidenote: Amber bought JD the knife in June 2012 when she hadn't seriously experienced JD's abuses. JD was telling AH to cut him ca. July in 2016 during their divorce when, according to him, he'd already experienced years of abuse from her. Plus Manson did a similar thing to ERW.
