If that would have happened to me, no one would have cared to investigate and blamed it all on my choice of doing.

[bernieoconnell]

The poor man was an addict with a lot of problems. Let him
Rest in peace.

[hakimbandaru]

This is ridiculous. Nobody forced him, unless he was forced, he made a choice. Personal responsibility needs to be in the forefront.

[crispinfornoff]

This kind of thing happens all the time and there’s no justice unless it’s a celebrity.

[ShaneUrbas]

So if eating a bunch of Big Macs gives me a heart attack can I sue McDonalds?

[christinebee]

It takes two. Someone sold it. He bought it. The result was that he died. No one forced him to buy it and use it. His choice.

[tonyagrammatico]

Probably going to be a Dateline episode. Sad!!! Perry was an adult and made decisions that led to this tragedy.

[T-roc]

If you wanna charge the dealer with trafficking fine, but murder is a bit of a reach here.

[pohanahawaii]

🙄 Why? Matthew Perry was a serious addict. He wouldn't have stayed clean or sober for long. Just too much opportunity, habit, money, and idle time.

[Hussarianbrother]

That’s crazy. Ketamine can make you pass out and he got in the bathtub.

[katfanker]

Why was an addict prescribed Ketamine therapy? That seems negligent to me. Rest in peace Matthew. ❤

[Queen.Sindel]

Because theyre celebrity 😂😂, somehow they're holy and cant be blamed for their self actions.

[MariaRodriguez-ezsj]

My favorite "friend" still heart you thought you just had left us too soon without knowing how much you meant to some of us, & the laughs I've had in the hardest times of my life because of

[claudeteswank]

He was so drugged al his life now it is someone fault.

[.IceCream]

He knew what he was doing and would not want someone else to take the blam for what he did. Let him Rest In Peace.

[danielcantrell]

Should not be charged unless he was murdered

[dee]

Enough with this craziness! He was an addict and he overdosed on ketamine. He is responsible for his own choices. Why are people always trying to blame someone else…oh I know for money and attention!!

[bigwill]

Sad that they cant let him rest in peace

[stevechappellie]

There but for the grace of God go I. Quit judging, RIP dear Matthew. You live on in your reruns and movies.

Theraputic Ketamine, who are they trying to kid. Guy suffered from addiction and had the means to get his fix from Doctors rather than the tens of thousands on the street outside to lend some air of respectability to it.
