Amber Heard hires bodyguards amid death threats from Johnny Depp’s fans

At the start of the Amber Heard vs Johnny Depp trial, two of the actor’s fans had to be ejected from the Fairfax County Courthouse for harassing the defendant. Amber Heard has been suffering constant threats from obsessed Johnny Depp fans that got too far, it got all the way to disturbing death threats.

This has obviously pushed the actress to hire a security detail that was initially reported by the New York Post. According to this report, several guards have been posted outside the premises and they have been following Heard everywhere she goes. It is still unclear how many bodyguards are protecting her but the Post confirmed she is paying $120 per hour for each bodyguard.

According to the security company the actress hired, there are a series of ‘lone-wolf’ online threats they are keeping tabs on. Also, there have been a number of crazed fans who have attempted to approach the actress or yelled insults at her while she is either leaving or getting to court.

The detail is also keeping their eye out for people attempting to enter the premises, the parking lot and the entrance to the court. Arguably, the most concerning aspect are those online threats that can’t be taken lightly by the authorities. Regardless of the case and who is guilty or not, no person has the right to harass any of the people involved in the trial.

According to the report, Amber Heard’s legal team has also been subject to threats that are quite disturbing to read online. Obsessed fans need to be taken seriously as we’ve seen many cases in which things got way out of hand.

In previous cases, there have been fans of major celebrities such as John Lennon, Giorgio Armani or Bjork that are too disturbing to describe here. We also won’t reproduce any of the threats against Amber Heard. Anybody who wants to take a look can do it at their own risk. Nobody should encourage or endorse this type of behavior from fans, regardless of the situation.
