      Basically, both have serious problems, while I definitely leaned team Depp, I wouldn’t have been surprised if it had gone the other way.

        That’s the thing tho. We don’t know enough to make that call. While I get people takes sides this is about other people’s private life and it should stay that way.

          Unpopular opinion: it’s good that the trial had the media attention it had. If that hadn’t happened, everyone would still be thinking Heard is a saint like it was before the trial, even though proof the abuse happened both ways already surfaced.

          She crowned herself paladin against domestic violence while perpetrating it herself and the world needed to know how much of an ass she actually was. That’s also part of the reason why most people were team Depp: both were shitty people, but at least Depp had the decency not to go to court and play victim.
