When you have to tear another woman down to climb up, is it really worth it?

I think this is how lawyering in general works? I am not a lawyer but had someone explain to me that in court- nothing is personal. You have to do your job, defend your client to the best of your ability and navigate the legal process. As a lawyer, her personal views do not hold any bearings on the case. Of course this is a very idealistic view of the profession and yes she could have refused the case. Also from what I know many firms always prefer to use female lawyers when defending a man like this- which kind of gives the man more credibility when a woman is defending him. Fucked up system tbh

Some of these comments disturb me. If women are going to do exactly what a misogynistic man would do, what's the difference? It's actually more insidious because they put a woman's pretty face on misogyny in a court of law, and makes it easier for everyone to accept it as natural and just.

Just because it's the way things are doesn't mean we have to participate. (I do understand that some people aren't in a financial place to say no or make another choice, but I don't think that's the case here.) This is another reason why being financially sound is so important. Money is power. If we have financial stability, we can say no.

Women campaigned against women's voting rights.

Women campaigned against the ERA.

Women are still campaigning against women's rights to this day, and we see the results from it daily. This is nothing to shrug off.

I feel very disturbed about her conduct during this case. Especially when she was cross examining Amber. She just made partner at her firm, but I do not respect her for it.

Unfortunately that's how the justice system is. The law firms often prefer female lawyers to defend violent males. And as a lawyer, you have to believe that everybody deserves a representation. It sucks.

Let's hold off on judging a female attorney for doing her job. She was hired (at a very high rate most likely) to do the best job she could. The jury convicted Amber. She may be a great lawyer but she certainly didn't have mind control over the jury. The evidence showed what it did: a very toxic relationship for two people who probably should have never gotten married. Like myself, you likely saw the evidence of all of the drug use going on in those residences, which do not lead to healthy relationship dynamics. Maybe Amber's lawyer (also a woman if I remember correctly) messed up. Should she also be lambasted?

Meh, she was just doing the job she was hired to do. And if you work for a firm, you don’t always get to pick your clients. I’m more skeptical of all the female depp stans harassing herd online for free.

UPDATE: Now that I’ve watched more of the trial (avoided watching it cos it made me too angry), specifically clips of Camille cross-examining Amber, I take it back. She’s absolutely vile. I’m so glad the tide is turning, and I hope the people who got Camille’s face tattooed on their body are given endless amounts of shit about it for the rest of their lives.

I cannot help but think about this as well
