@Jeight8 - I suppose in theory, if someone were to get stressed enough, they could do something like that, but i dont think thats the case here.

@Jeight8 - I don't need to trust you. I had a similer father. Very true.

@Jeight8 @Krampus - Same type of father here, and even though I agree with you, I think there's a small percentage of people who do not fit your general description. It is true that people like our fathers, serial abusers, will do it their entire life, and in a case like Heard and Depp, it would be very strange that he would just have had that kind of behavior with her only, but it's not impossible.

What I went through as a kid made me, strangely, into the nicest possible Teddy bear, I'm also really, unbelievably patient, but if you really, I mean REALLY, push me in my limits, I will snap, and destroy everything around me. I'm not talking about an argument, a couple's fight, I'm talking about that discussion that happens once or twice per lifetime where the other person, the one facing you who knows you best, wants to hurt you and is going to say the most horrendous things possible just to break you.

So maybe, just maybe, she pushed him so hard that for the first time ever, he snapped and lashed at her. Might even be what she wanted, just so she could destroy him, who knows. In any case, it's possible he snapped just this once. It's never happened to me, I've snapped, and I mean blind rage snap (I don't even remember it), only twice in my life, but I only destroyed furniture and my own hand. Never hurt anyone. Maybe Depp did.

@Danbito - besides women are always wanting to be treated the same as men. They shouldn't complain about taking a punch like one either.

@TheScarletTroll - I think what she means is that, even if there wasn't "an intent of harm" there was harm, because "neither party has made false accusations"
