The former guards also say they were subjected to a dangerous work environment and labour violations.
According to a lawsuit filed by Johnny Depp’s former bodyguards, the Oscar nominated actor used and abused some of his security guards and didn’t even pay them their dues.
TMZ.com reports that the former bodyguards, Eugene Arreola and Miguel Sanchez, claim that they took personal jobs with the actor in early 2016 after years of protecting him with another security company. According to the documents, once they became members of his in-house security team, he started putting them in compromising situations such as having to drive vehicles with illegal drugs and open alcohol containers inside, monitoring unstable people on his crew, babysitting his kids and even protecting Depp from himself due to his wild behavior.
They claim that they had to alert Depp at a nightclub of “illegal substances visible on his face and person while preventing onlookers from noticing Depp’s condition.”
The former guards also say they were subjected to a dangerous work environment and labour violations. To top it all, they say they were not paid overtime and didn’t get breaks to eat!
