It's entertainment. Legal tabloid bullshit.
What's remarkable about it is that it's been politicized with the Pedo Don followers supporting Depp and the LWers largely supporting Heard.
Another factor is that a large number of American women are blaming Heard for being a gold-digging cunt and liar while they completely absolve Depp of all responsibility or fault.
The little I know makes them both look despicable .
