RATTLED BY HEARTBREAKING NEW DETAILS SURROUNDING MATTHEW PERRY'S 2023 DEATH, THE ACTOR'S FORMER COSTARS ARE BANDING TOGETHER TO HONOR HIS LEGACY.
Justice for Our Friend!

Twas a bombshell few saw coming: On Aug. 15, federal and local authorities revealed a grand jury had charged five people in connection with the tragic death of beloved actor Matthew Perry. The star was found dead in his hot tub last October at the age of 54, with an autopsy later showing he’d died from the “acute effects” of ketamine. Prosecutors say doctors Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez, as well as Matthew’s longtime assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, and alleged drug dealer Jasveen Sangha as well as reality TV producer Erik Fleming played “key roles” in Matthew’s fatal overdose.

Those closest to the Friends alum have been horrified to learn the truth about the final weeks of his life, which were marked by addiction and desperation. Court papers describe how he was exploited by Plasencia and Chavez — who, a month before Matthew’s demise, texted each other saying, “I wonder how much this moron will pay” for the illicit drugs.
