5, including 2 doctors, charged in Matthew Perry's death investigation

A prosecutor says five people have been charged in connection with Matthew Perry's death from a ketamine overdose last year, including the actor's assistant and two doctors.

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.

We live in a society now where nobody is responsible for their own actions. What a joke

[fxbtz]

Translation:
"We investigated this death and arrested suspects because he was famous and rich, if he where just a normal person that overdosed we wouldn't have done anything"

[terrymertz]

They make it sound like Perry was being drugged against his will

[tomdevlin]

This only happens with famous people, the rest of us just go into a hole.

Next sue alcohol companies for people who kill someone in a dui

He did the drugs. He wanted the drugs. Where is his responsibility

[Crustatia-dpmo]

"She was known as the Ketamine Queen" yet we never heard of her until Matthew Perry dies?

What about Mathew Perry's personal responsibility not to do drugs? He was an adult.

[PeacefulJoint]

He was a grownman who made his own choices. Grow up.

[elwoodblues]

any other person dies from a overdose nothing is done but because he is a star lets pat ourselves on our back and blame someone else for his decisions

Plenty of doctors in California fear where this is going. Other places as well, but everyone I know in California will tell you to go to the “right” doctor for what you want.

Perry chose drugs. It was his life to decide. He chose death.

It is sad, however, how many addicts die every day across the country because of the "compassion care" drugs being supplied by State agencies? Where are those charges? Oh, it's the addict's fault! Hmmmm....

[rockyroad]

Yet it's perfectly legal to cut body parts off minors. These doctors should have their licenses permanently revoked, but he was an addict and chose to abuse drugs.

The medical profession has become little more than a legalized drug business. Most of what they do is provide pharmaceutical drugs to their patients for profit. This isn't surprising at all. It begins with the "culture" of the medical profession. Compare the answer to any medical question of a doctor to the tax question posed to a CPA. Very different people, in my opinion.

The Fool and his money are soon parted and this time he even parted with his life.

I’m happy when people who harm addicts get justice, but it’s always the rich & famous or powerful that get the justice. My sister who was an addict and her son who sadly succumbed the same way by overdose, nobody cared about who supplied them with drugs. Nobody investigated. But the public loves Matt and I get it, he deserves justice too. It’s just the two tiered system man! It sucks… everyone deserves justice

The best doctors money can buy. Who knew doctors are just after your money and repeat business.

One is facing life in prison, and the other is facing 120 years in prison. 🤔

[samlogan]

Lmao, how you gunna charge someone for a drug problem? He was a grown man he made his choices
