Amber Heard is currently the subject of a perjury investigation related to a court case from 2016. The entire case stems from a trip to Australia with Johnny Depp in 2015. In the latest bizarre twist, American TV presenter Cooper Lawrence discussed on the show about Amber's Yorkshire terrier Bo who is no longer in the photos on Amber's Instagram profile.

In this case, Instagram is the 'relevant' source

Cooper Lawrence raised further alarm Thursday when she spoke to Australia's Sunrise show about the actress' 2015 visit to Queensland when she broke biosecurity laws by failing to register her dogs Pistol and Boo.

In fact, Amber is now the subject of a perjury investigation related to a court case from 2016. Lawrence suggested that Heard no longer has Boo because the pet has not been pictured on her Instagram since 2020. Pistol was last pictured on Amber's Instagram in May 2020, while the actress shared a picture with an unnamed Yorkshire terrier in January of this year.

It was also mentioned that she regularly posts photos with her other dogs, including Barnaby Joyce, named after the former deputy prime minister of Australia.

The story goes like this, in April 2015, Depp and Heard brought their Yorkshire terriers, named Pistol and Boo, to Queensland, where the actor was filming the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 5". The transport of their dogs breached Australian biosecurity laws because the couple failed to register and quarantine them. Authorities only became aware of Pistol and Boo's presence when their visit to a Gold Coast dog grooming salon was posted on Facebook.

At the time, Minister Joyce insisted that the dogs would be killed if they were not sent home to the US. 'If we start letting movie stars come into our country to break the law, then why don't we just let everybody break the law,' Joyce said during the infamous press conference.

Australian authorities may seek help from the FBI as they investigate claims that Heard allegedly perjured herself in a Queensland court six years ago. A former special agent in the bureau told Law & Crime that it was common for Australian investigators to liaise with their American counterparts, and such cooperation would be likely in this case given the relevant witnesses all "live overseas". Heard was charged with two counts of illegally importing animals into Australia in July 2015, however, the case was closed when she pleaded guilty to forging travel documents in a Gold Coast court in April 2016.

She could have a maximum prison sentence of 14 years. There is a possibility that she could still face arrest if she tries to re-enter the country, the Daily Mail speculates.
