Doctor confesses: Ketamine procurement for Friends star Perry exposes drug network!

The death of Matthew Perry, one of the best -known stars of the "Friends" series, has triggered a wave of investigations that revolve around the use of anesthetics and medical ethics. As part of this investigation, a doctor from San Diego admitted his guilt in court. The 54-year-old doctor was accused of having procured the potent anesthetic ketamine for Perry. This was confirmed in short reports of US media and raises the question of how to end Perry's tragic end.

The responsible judge quickly made a decision on the future practice of the doctor. She prohibited him from continuing to work as a doctor and put him on the budget for the deposit. The sentence that could potentially bring him up to ten years in prison are expected to be announced in April.

Legal consequences and investigations

The doctor's lawyer commented on the remorse of his client and described him as incredibly repentant. According to his statement, the doctor intends to work with the public prosecutor and to clarify the circumstances of his actions. The indictment claims that he is said to have sold a larger amount of ketamine with another colleague in Los Angeles with the help of a fake recipe.

The arrest of the doctor is part of a broader examination that began in August, as the police and public prosecutor's office, levied serious allegations against five people. These include not only doctors, but also drug dealers and a personal assistant of the actor. The investigators try to clarify how Perry could get to the large amount of ketamine that was demonstrated in his blood at the time of his death.

Prosecutor Martin Estrada described the findings of the investigation as a wide -branched criminal network that had exploited Perry's addiction problems to make profit from it. A doctor in Los Angeles and a drug supplier, who is known as the "Ketamine Queen", is among the main defendants. Both have not pleaded guilty and will be on trial in 2025.

An assistant from Perry has already guilty that he has procured ketamine and injected the drug without medical knowledge. This could confront him with a maximum imprisonment of 15 years, whereby the judgment is announced in November.

Perry's dramatic fight against addiction

Matthew Perry was found dead in his whirlpool in October. At this point it was known that he had repeatedly publicly addressed his fights against addiction problems. According to reports, he looked for therapeutic help through ketamine to deal with depression and anxiety. This possibility of using the anesthetist under medical supervision contradicts the claim that he also got the remedy on the black market.

Ketamine has undoubtedly its legitimacy in medical practice, but is also misused by some as illegal drug. The anesthetic has proven to be effective for patients with therapy -resistant depression, but abuse, especially in party circles, is problematic. The tragedy in Perry's case shows the dangers behind the wrong use of a drug like ketamine.

The ongoing investigations and the legal consequences result from this case illustrate how important it is to consider the abuse of medication and the responsibility of medical specialists. The public and the judiciary are very interested in fully clarifying the background of this affair, especially so shortly after the loss of such an estimated star.
