BREAKING: Five people have been charged in connection with "Friends" star Matthew Perry's death, including the actor's assistant and two doctors, a prosecutor says.
U.S. Attorney Martin Estrada announced the charges Thursday, saying the doctors supplied Perry with a large amount of ketamine and even wondered in a text message how much the former “Friends” star would be willing to pay.
“These defendants took advantage of Mr. Perry’s addiction issues to enrich themselves. They knew what they were doing was wrong,” Estrada said.
Perry died in October due to a ketamine overdose and received several injections on the day he died from his live-in personal assistant.
Two of the people, including one of the doctors charged, have been arrested, Estrada said. Two of the defendants, including Perry’s assistant, have pleaded guilty to charges already, and a third person has agreed to plead guilty.
Perry was found face down in his hot tub on Oct. 28, and paramedics who were called immediately declared him dead.
The decades-old drug has seen a huge surge in use in recent years as a treatment for depression, anxiety and pain. People close to Perry told coroner’s investigators that he was undergoing ketamine infusion therapy.
