She’s back – Camille Vasquez to represent Depp for the second time

Published

on

Camille Vasquez is arguably one of the most famous lawyers in the world right now after thrusting into the public eye during Johnny Depp’s heated trial with ex-wife Amber Heard

At the start of the month the Jury reached a verdict in favour of Depp, pushing Vasquez’s status as a lawyer even further

In fact, she was quickly promoted to firm partner after representing the Pirates of the Caribbean actor.

Her days of standing by Johnny aren’t over, Camille Vasquez will now represent Depp for the second time for a lawsuit with a former colleague named Gregg ‘Rocky’ Brooks.

Brooks filed a Personal Injury lawsuit against the actor in LA in 2018.

He has accused Depp of punching him twice in the rib cage in April 2017 while the pair were working together on the film set of the crime drama City of Lies.

Brooks alleges Depp also asked him to punch him back but in the face, supposedly offering him $100,000 to do so.

He also claimed the actor smelt of alcohol when they had a supposed run in over how long left they had to shoot a scene in downtown Los Angeles.

Depp has argued the injuries Brooks incurred were because the location manager ‘provoked’ others.

The trial is currently set to commence on July 25th.

Australia shuts millions of teen social media accounts

Australia’s social media ban leads to 4.7 million teen account closures, prompting debate over online safety and freedom.

Nearly five million social media accounts belonging to Australian teenagers have been closed since the nation’s social media ban began in December. Platforms such as Instagram and TikTok were responsible for removing around 4.7 million accounts held by minors, according to the eSafety Commissioner.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the figures as encouraging, highlighting the government’s commitment to protecting children online. The new law holds social media companies accountable, with fines imposed on platforms that fail to prevent underage accounts from being created or maintained.

Despite these measures, some teenagers have reportedly bypassed the restrictions by falsifying their ages or using parental information. The debate continues over the effectiveness of these regulations and the balance between safety and online freedom.

Greenland, Denmark assert Arctic island not for sale, emphasizing cooperation with the US on their own terms.


Greenland and Denmark have used high-level talks in Washington, D.C. to firmly restate that the Arctic island is not for sale, pushing back against long-standing US interest in the strategically vital territory.

Foreign ministers from both Greenland and Denmark acknowledged that major disagreements remain following discussions with US officials, despite what they described as constructive engagement on shared priorities.

Greenland’s government made clear it is open to closer cooperation with Washington, but only on its own terms, rejecting any suggestion of ownership or control.
