Four and a half months have passed since the death of Matthew Perry, one of Hollywood's most beloved actors. Then, lovers of the series Friends deeply regretted the loss of the performer. The interpreter was found lifeless in the jacuzzi of his house in Los Angeles. Later, it was learned that the actor had relapsed into his addictions and the autopsy revealed that he had died from ketamine.
The actor, 54 years old, died due to the presence of this drug in his body. It is a very powerful substance that is used in medicine and veterinary medicine for its sedative properties, although its hallucinogenic effects also make it a dangerous compound when consumed as a drug. Although it was known by many that the actor had suffered from alcohol and drug addictions, forensics found no trace of any of these substances.
Some time ago the actor had claimed to have overcome his addictions. Something that one of his closest friends denied after his death. "He lied to everyone about being clean. He never was. He's very sad. Deep down, the biggest lie he ever told was probably to himself," he said. This close friend, who did not want to reveal his identity, assured that Perry "could be a quite manipulative person when it came to his struggles against consumption, but he was a fight, a battle, and he fought every day until the end." .
In the last few hours, Kayti Edwards, Perry's ex-girlfriend and former assistant, has asked the police to reopen the investigation, since she believes that there were irregularities in his death. Kayti, who maintained a great friendship with Matthew until the end of her days, claims to have witnessed how the actor had "dishonest" medical personnel who supplied him with drugs.
As she explained to the Mirror newspaper, she saw first-hand how the 17-year-old performer once again paid nurses to give him up to 50 Vicodin pills a day. The woman claims that she is sure that some doctor or nurse could be behind the mysterious dose of ketamine found in Perry's body. On the other hand, Edwards asks that Perry be commemorated at the Oscars. "I know it would mean a lot to him to be honored at the Oscars in some way. I remember having a conversation with him about how it was always his dream to be recognized and not just by Friends," she said.
The theory of the actor's ex-partner is reminiscent of the case of Conrad Murray, the doctor convicted of the involuntary manslaughter of Michael Jackson in 2009. On that fateful June 25, the health worker administered to the interpreter of They Don't Care About Us a dose of propofol that ended his life. We will have to wait to find out if the investigation is reopened.
