I don't know...I can believe that they were just in a toxic relationship, but given the amount of evidence Heard has gathered, it seems likely she's telling the truth. She's got photographic, audio, and visual evidence of his violence towards her, along with affidavits from friends of Depp, members of his security, and police officers.
I remain somewhat skeptical regarding his claims, since Depp has made claims in the past, only for others to come forward and say, "Yeah, he got hurt while doing this stunt for this movie." Plus, it seems too easy how quickly people are willing to jump to Depp's defense, the instant he presents one photo or recording, while denying the exhaustive amount of evidence Heard has presented.
For the record, male victims of domestic violence are often dismissed and ignored by society, which is a problem that needs to be addressed. At the same time, the victims of domestic violence are overwhelmingly female and the perpetrators are overwhelmingly male. Also, I roll my eyes a little about the "Because he was a man, no one took him seriously!" argument. It is technically true, but let's not kid ourselves into believing that women who accuse powerful men of abuse, are automatically believed and given support by society at large. Women who accuse powerful men of abuse can look forward to being humiliated, threatened, and face having their entire lives picked apart by people looking for any excuse to dismiss their claims.
