The death of Matthew Perry: who is blamed for the tragedy of the star?

American actor Matthew Perry, widely known for his role in the series "Friends", died in the fall of 2023. His life was filled not only with fame, but also with difficult trials, including a long struggle with drug and alcohol addiction.

Drama behind the scenes: Who is being blamed for Perry's death?

Although Perry claimed to have kicked his addiction, he continued to use ketamine, an opioid drug prescribed to treat depression. Unfortunately, this drug could have a negative effect on the actor's cardiovascular system, which was the cause of his death.

Recently, the Los Angeles prosecutor's office brought charges against five people who may be involved in this tragedy. Among them are two doctors, Perry's personal assistant and a drug dealer known as the "Queen of Ketamine". The main charge is the supply of opioids to the actor.

"They knew what they were doing was wrong. They knew their actions put Mr. Perry in great danger. But they did it anyway, " the statement said.

Correspondence revealing the truth

The case includes personal correspondence of the accused, which shows that they were aware of the actor's addiction and took advantage of it. One message reads, "I wonder how much this fool will pay (for ketamine - ed.), " to which another replies, "Let's find out."

Agreement with the investigation: what is known?

Three of the five accused entered into a deal with the investigation, admitting their guilt. The case is currently under consideration, and the court will determine the future fate of the accused.

Perry, shortly before his death, released a memoir about his struggle with the effects of years of opioid use. His life and death served as a reminder of the dangers of such drugs and the importance of supporting those struggling with addiction.
