Stanford law professor calls Johnny Depp lawyer Camille Vasquez 'absolute worst'

A Stanford law professor attacked Johnny Depp’s lawyer Camille Vasquez in a series of scathing tweets accusing her of “sucking up to male power.”

 Michele Dauber, an Amber Heard supporter, blasted Vasquez one day after a Virginia jury events in his defamation claim against his ex-wife.

“Of all the women who suck up to male power, women lawyers are the absolute worst of the bunch,” she tweeted June 2 under a photo of Vasquez giving a press conference after the team’s victory. 

“Desperate to prove they are ‘real lawyers’ and understanding that being a woman undermines their identity as lawyers, they throw women under the bus as hard and fast as they can,” Dauber continued.

The law professor also wrote in the thread that “some women have learned to seek male approval in the hopes they won’t be raped or abused or humiliated.”

Dauber included a series photos of female lawyers with men who’ve been accused or convicted of sex crimes and called them “skirts.” In one harvey-weinstein” target=”_blank”>snap of Harvey Weinstein with his attorney<

Other responses called Dauber “jealous” and said it wasn’t a “good look to cut down minority women.”

Vasquez, 37, was praised for her tightly controlled cross-examination of Heard, grilling her on inconsistencies in her testimony. 

She also delivered part of the opening and closing statements. The young attorney’s performance at the Fairfax County Circuit Court trial won her a promotion to partner at her firm Brown Rudnick.

“These people are scum, they are garbage, they are complete f–king trash,” the professor wrote.

It wasn’t just Vasquez and Depp supporters that Dauber took aim at. She called the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise and Depp’s character, Captain Jack Sparrow, racist, writing that there is an “overlap between anti-women and anti-black individuals” among Depp’s fan base. 

Stanford didn’t immediately return a request for comment.
