Another Random Opinion on the Amber Heard Jury Verdict

Amber Heard is a working actress.

Did her attorney tell her to act like a stuck-up bitch? Or did they tell her to act likable, and she has no talent?

I agree with the jury.

When my former spouse punched me in the ribs about 25 years ago, I went to the doctor, because it was hard to breathe. The incident was documented.

I have a vague memory of seeing another woman in the next area over and the nurse warning me that this is what it looks like when abuse escalates. The woman looked like she survived a prize fight. It was frightening.

After I left my abuser, he shoved me into a car door while dropping the kids off. I took pictures of that too. I heard from a former brother-in-law that my ex had a girlfriend who was a 911 operator who made the police file of the second incident disappear.

Even with my documentation, there were never criminal charges filed against the alleged perpetrator.

There were eventually criminal charges filed against the same man for alleged child abuse when he punched my son in the face. He was found not guilty after a jury trial (from which I was excluded).

It is hard enough to obtain justice for domestic violence.

We don’t need “spokeswomen” like Amber Heard calling into question whether legitimate complaints are legitimate. Crying wolf does more harm than good.
