People Believed Johnny Depp Was A Domestic Abuser. It Turns Out He May Have Been The Victim.

People jumped to believe that actor Johnny Depp was a domestic abuser after his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard, made the accusations in 2016 as the couple was divorcing. Depp is now suing Heard for $50 million, claiming that he was the actual victim of domestic abuse in the relationship.

Heard’s allegations should have been questioned from the start. False accusations during a contentious divorce are nothing new, and even though Depp has been married many, many times before, not one of his ex-wives said she was abused as well. Sure, it is possible that he suddenly became a physically violent person toward women in his early 50s, but it seems unlikely.
