Take your main claim. Juliette killed Nicks mom. That's an exaggeration. Juliette provided information that resulted in Kelly's death. A big difference then killing his mom. The information was not provided with the intention of facilitating death. Remember Juliette had not heard of or seen Kenneth kill or threaten anyone. Be different if the plan was to kill Kelly but the plan was to kidnap Diana. Using viewers perspective of Kenneth to demonize Juliette for sleeping with Kenneth is a distortion of the situation. When Juliette sleep with Kenneth she was not with Nick and all she knew about Kenneth. He was a powerful royal who could help her with being a hexenbiest. The same with sleeping with Sean. Juliette had left Nick. To make an argument that Juliette sleeping with Sean or Kenneth has anything to do with her being despicable. Can only be made from some distorted moral perspective. You have posted the position that Juliette is evil because she began to enjoy being a hexenbiest. By definition that says you advocate she should have rejected being a hexenbiest. That would mean reject who she is. You have stated the group is the hero for trying to force Juliette to drank a potion created by Adalind. And it was Juliette who was being unreasonable for wanting to stay a hexenbiest. Even though we now see the potion was not a cure. And being a hexenbiest has save her and Nicks life a few times.
I have to ask. How is this a distorted moral perspective? You're right by saying she didn't cheat on Nick but sleeping with his boss and someone who is clearly his enemy are awful things to do and I would not think highly of that person. She not only slept with Kenneth, Nick's enemy and someone who wouldn't hesitate to hurt him, but did it in their home and their own bed. She knew Nick would see that when he came home and wanted it to have an effect on him. Nick didn't know she slept with Kenneth but he would definitely know that she came back into their house to sleep with another man.
Juliette didn't cheat on Nick but those were definitely despicable things to do. I'm not even someone who hates Juliette and thought she provided value to the series at some point but I can't defend her on this one. Sleeping with your boyfriend's boss and enemy, the latter being in their bed, is so hugely disrespectful. I think Juliette felt she was disrespected with the way Nick responded to her being a Hexenbiest and the Adalind situation so I do understand but it doesn't make it any less despicable.
