Illegally took dogs into country with husband Johnny Depp
An Australian court has dropped charges against actress Amber Heard for illegally taking her dogs into the country.
Ms Heard, who is married to actor Johnny Depp, pleaded guilty to falsifying customs paperwork about her Yorkshire terriers, Pistol and Boo.
But the Queensland judge gave her a one-month good behaviour bond of $1,000 with no conviction and a glowing character assessment.
The Hollywood couple apologised for their actions in a video in which Amber says: “I am truly sorry that Pistol and Boo were not declared, protecting Australia is important.”
When Ms Heard first arrived in Brisbane by private jet last year (21 April) she ticked a box on her passenger arrival card which indicated that she did not have any animals.
The story hit the headlines after the couple visited a local grooming parlour, which subsequently posted a picture on Facebook.
Australia’s agriculture minister warned that the dogs would be euthanised unless they left the country within two days.
The dogs later returned to the US, but the couple were warned that if the case went to court, Amber could face up to 10 years in prison and a hefty fine.
