According to Distractify, Amber Heard could be facing up to three years of jail time if the court rules in Johnny Depp’s favor.

Amber Heard could be going to jail if Johnny Depp wins his lawsuit.
Basically, Amber Heard claimed on the stand in Johnny’s libel suit against the Sun tabloid that Johnny Depp had physically and emotionally abused her.

Back in 2015, Heard showed up in court with a black eye seeking a restraining order. Johnny claims that Amber had faked her black eye seen at the court, and Amber Heard’s stylist corroborated this. She stated, “Throughout the day of December 16, 2015, I could see clearly that Amber Heard did not have any visible marks, bruises, cuts, or injuries to her face or any other part of her body.”

Since then, Johnny Depp has fought back against every bad word against him with libel and defamation lawsuits, so far against The Sun (which he lost), and against Amber Heard, which has not yet been seen in court. According to Deadline, the latest update is that their court date is once again pushed back to at least April 11, 2022. If Amber Heard loses, she could face jail time for tampering with evidence.

Even though it’s possible Johnny Depp could win his upcoming lawsuit in the coming years, there’s no confirming whether or not Amber Heard will face jail time. Regardless, this puts Warner Bros. in a tough spot. Even though fans had petitioned for Warner Bros. to force Amber Heard’s resignation from Aquaman 2, WB hasn’t announced any plans for change.

However, in December 2020, a lifestyle article in Forbes about Emilia Clarke’s home let the cat out of the bag that Emilia Clarke had signed on to replace Amber Heard as Mera in Aquaman 2. Sadly, though, there’s still no confirmation. It could just be wishful thinking on the fans’ part.

It’s not clear according to that article why Amber Heard could be facing jail time if Johnny Depp wins his appeal. They mention tampering with evidence, but don’t say clearly what evidence, or how it was tampered with.

I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that if Johnny wins his appeal, Heard might be on the hook for some very serious perjury charges. She’s already being investigated in Australia for Perjury charges for falsifying statements about smuggling their dogs Pistol and Boo into the country. So it wouldn’t be a far stretch if she’s investigated in a London court for the same crime. Not for lying about the dogs, this time, though, but for potentially lying on the stand during Johnny’s libel case against NGN and the Sun tabloid.

It could be for something else altogether.

Let’s not forget that there’s no statute of limitations in Australia for grievous bodily injury requiring medical attention. And that’s where Heard cut off the tip of Johnny’s finger with a Vodka bottle. And, no. I’m not making a wild accusation there. Heard herself was recorded on audiotape admitting that she did, saying “I didn’t mean to do it!” and begging Johnny not to leave her.

The point being, if Johnny wanted to, he could always file a report with Australian police and have her put behind bars for a long time. And if her were the vengeful monster she keeps trying to say he is, he would have done that already.

All Johnny’s interested in is clearing his name. He’s said it time and time again, and the fact that Heard’s not cooling her heels already in an Australian prison proves it.

What do you think? Will Heard face jail time if Johnny wins his appeal? Or if he wins his defamation suit? Should Johnny press charges in Australia over his severed finger?

Yeah. I do too.
