She had told the court that the two had confessed that both of them were physically abusive in the relationship. Also, she told that Amber Heard had a “jackhammer style of talking” and Depp has trouble keeping. This would trigger the actress.
She added, “And then with Ms. Heard, [Depp] was triggered and they engaged as what I saw as mutual abuse.” She said that when Heard was “triggered” by something Depp did, she considered it a “point of pride” to “initiate” a fight, and “if [Depp] was going to leave her to deescalate the fight, she would strike him to keep him there.”
