Interesting thing in the Depp-Heard trial.Dr Hughes, brought in to testify in favour of Heard, has claimed that men can be the victims of partner violence perpetrated by women. However, in all the times she spoke about this, she would call the victims of hypotheticals "she" and the perpetrator as "he". When questioned about if she had ever testified on the side of a man in such a case, all the examples she listed were same-sex incidents (male on male, female on female) not a single case of female perpetrator on male victim.Granted this could mean nothing and it is her judgement on whom she works for but considering on balance domestic violence is roughly 50/50 between male and female perpetrators, the fact she seems to have 0 cases where it's a female perpetrator against a male but numerous where it is the other way, defying the basic probability of these cases coming up, coupled with making an assessment on the state of the relationship after only speaking to 1 party (the woman), it would seem to imply she may not be impartial in her assessment.
