Matthew Perry received 27 ketamine injections in the three days leading up to his tragic death at 54 in October 2023. Mr Perry, who played Chandler Bing on the hit TV sitcom ‘Friends’ from 1994-2004, died after having been found unconscious in a swimming pool at his house in Los Angeles. According to the autopsy report, his death was attributed to \”acute effects of ketamine\” with accidental drowning as the manner of death. Five people have been charged in connection with his death, including two doctors, his assistant, and an alleged drug dealer known as \”the Ketamine Queen\” A new documentary, ‘Matthew Perry: A Hollywood Tragedy,’ features insights from US Attorney Martin Estrada, who previously supervised the investigation into Mr Perry’s death. The actor’s assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, and acquaintance Erik Fleming collaborated with doctors Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez to obtain large quantities of Ketamine for Perry before his overdose death, according to the indictment. Dr. Plas Valencia and Jasveen Sangha have entered not-guilty pleas and are scheduled to stand trial on March 4 in LA.
