Another celebrity suspect emerges in Matthew Perry death case

The mystery surrounding the untimely death of Matthew Perry has taken a new twist, with another celebrity potentially being drawn into the ongoing criminal investigation. Perry, renowned for his role on “Friends,” tragically passed away on October 28, 2023, in his hot tub, with the official cause of death reported as the “acute effects of ketamine.” This shocking news prompted an immediate wave of sorrow and heartfelt tributes from fans worldwide, including poignant messages from his “Friends” co-stars.

In the wake of Perry’s demise, law enforcement swiftly commenced a criminal probe to unravel the circumstances leading to his death. According to a recent report by In Touch, authorities have taken significant steps in their investigation, including seizing a laptop and an iPhone from a sober living facility. The devices belonged to a prominent woman, later identified by her lawyer as Brooke Mueller, Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife, who was also questioned in relation to Perry’s death.

The plot thickens as In Touch has now disclosed that yet another high-profile figure could be implicated. The details about who this might be remain scarce, but the implications are serious. Perry had candidly written about his use of ketamine in a therapeutic setting to combat mental health issues such as depression. However, his last medically supervised ketamine session occurred approximately a week and a half before his tragic death. The autopsy revealed that the ketamine in his system at the time of death was too recent to have been administered in his treatment, suggesting he might have obtained it elsewhere. This revelation has steered the investigation towards a possible criminal angle.

A source close to the investigation disclosed to In Touch that Perry had formed a connection with another celebrity during a rehab stint, and they reportedly sought ways to procure drugs together. The source claimed, “If the feds had either one of their phones — especially [the second celeb’s], because she doesn’t erase her text messages — they would probably find conversations about the drug and ‘How can I get extra?’ Like, ‘Oh, come see my doctor if you need more.'” Such findings could have severe repercussions for those involved.

The entertainment world continues to mourn the loss of Matthew Perry, remembering him not just as a television star, but as a beloved friend and family member. His “Friends” co-stars expressed their collective heartbreak, stating, “We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we’re going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss.”

As the investigation presses forward, the entertainment community and fans alike wait anxiously for more details to surface, hoping for clarity and justice in the tragic loss of a cherished icon.
