Johnny Depp’s lawyer Camille Vasquez continues to receive praise online with the latest wave of appreciation coming as a result of a trick she seemingly used on Amber Heard.
Social media users have suggested she deployed a “Legally Blonde” tactic while cross-examining Heard during the ongoing trial. Depp is suing his ex-wife Heard for $50 million in loss of career earnings after she posted a 2018 op-ed which stated she was a survivor of domestic abuse.
Vasquez has been the subject of a lot of attention during the ongoing trial at the Fairfax County courthouse in Virginia. She’s gone viral for a number of moments and her relationship with Depp has even been questioned by some.
The latest moment to go viral was taken from Heard’s time on the witness stand as she’s being questioned about dates by Vasquez. A Depp fan on TikTok, @tam.editsxox has received 3.3 million views for sharing the moment.
“You were not called upon to provide a detailed account of all physical and sexual abuse by Mr. Depp until February 2020, is that correct?” Vasquez asks Heard.
The Aquaman actress agreed with that date. “I testified that I had not been able to do so until February 2020, outside the context of a cold deposition,” she told the jury.
Vasquez then admitted she misspoke and that the actual date was February 2022. “Right, sorry. I did the same thing you did,” Heard said.
