Matthew Perry

1
I agree the PA is nowhere near as culpable as the Drs and dealers involved, but I don't think he's entirely innocent either. If someone I was working for expected me to go out and illegally source drugs as part of my job I would 100% refuse. Because I know what would happen if I was caught. And if anyone was sacked for refusing to inject their employer with ketamine, I think they would have a very strong case for unfair dismissal! I appreciate he may have felt under pressure to do as he was told, but it was not his only option.

Depends on your morals I guess. The PA was working for an A lister, plenty more fish in the sea in LA. Not everyone would ask their PA to inject them.

Or maybe the PA was allowed to join in as a "perk"?

Additionally, he PA was living with Matthew Perry and so hardly had a lot of external expenses to cover.

MP would have simply found someone else to inject him, he had enough people around him, but needed the PA to be on call in case of an emergency.
 
So the little assistant was feeding the out of control addict! The danger was in front of Eveyone .

I don’t agree with people saying matey girl Friday was under pressure to feed the dragon! Or he would lose his job… absolutely not would be my reply for injecting my employer with drugs! What an absolute idiot and I hope he enjoys prison.

id walk away from such a person with my integrity intact.. if he was employed for such a long time why did he not feel one iota of responsibility to flag him to others for requesting such a order.. enjoy jail mate

So did the PA inject him with a several vials through the day and then go out and leave him in the hot tub? Isn’t he the same guy who found him?

It sounds like it wouldn’t have matter if the PA was there or not, the death was ruled to be directly related to the Ketamine so not drowning etc? Someone correct me if I have interpreted this wrong. Still don’t understand why the PA would go out although I don’t know what Ket does, maybe he just chilled/zoned out for ages and that’s why he left him.
I’m so sad reading everything that happened to him. Repeated what has already been said, but these sickos took advantage of him, doctors who are supposed to care and take care of human life. One charged him $2k for a vial of drugs that cost $12. I know it’s not even just the money, but the sheer greed is disgusting. I hope they get the book thrown at them and the judge makes an example of them with long sentences as I have no doubt this is happening all over the world where there is fame and money. So sad, poor guy. Although a little bit of me feels angry he claimed to be sober and made his book about it…not sure why it makes me angry but perhaps knowing it was all fake.

Maybe MP saw ketamine as medicine and not as a drug?
Reportedly no alcohol and other drugs had been found at his house when he died.

I so agree with you with everything you say about the doctors.

There are so many sudden celebrity deaths linked to drugs: Heath Ledger, Prince, ...
Who supplied them with drugs, thinking "I wonder how much they will pay..."

The desperation that they took advantage of is just awful. Nasty, awful people and I’m inclined to include the PA in that but mainly these doctors. I think the PA should have refused to inject him, I wonder if Matthew gave him money to do it. A lot easier to have someone at home doing it whenever you want. In the reports, it said before the assistant started doing it, he had been driven to a car park by the assistant to be injected by one of those drs. How depressing ☹️

These doctors could have referred him into a clinic or a treatment facility.

They are responsible for his death in my eyes.

They sold him drugs! Knowing he had almost died a couple of weeks ago and continued to do so! And overcharged him massively! And disrespectfully joked about him! And then when they read he had died they plotted to delete all their messages!

Why did they become doctors? How deranged do you have to be to become a doctor and then act this way?

This is like the post office lawyers - they should demonstrate the upmost integrity based on their profession, but lied and sent innocent people to prison - the opposite of what lawyers should do.
And those doctors indirectly killed him, which is the opposite of what doctors should do.

White collar criminals.

They’re drug dealers. They’re shits. What they do is immoral and kills people. It’s no surprise at all that they abuse and exploit their customers.

The PA had the choice not to do it. He did it.

They are doctors! Only one of them is a pure dealer - as far as I understood - this Ketamine Queen.
 
Addiction is an illness, but it’s an illness that turns the sufferer into a mean, scary, cruel, desperate, intolerable lying bleep. There’s a reason that none of the other Friends kept in touch with him, but kept in touch with each other. God knows what his live-in PA saw, heard and endured. The PA seemed to be the only person who was in his day-to-day life at the end.

My Aunt and Uncle drove round the worst bit of Dundee to buy drugs (heroin) for my cousin and helped him inject when he wasn’t able to. My aunt and uncle are the loveliest people who were in their 70s when this happened but were beaten down and manipulated by my cousin. You don’t know what it’s like till you’ve lived it. I hate my cousin for doing that to them, but they had very little support at the time and it got to the point that it was easier to give in to his demands.

I don’t think a single person has said he’s not to blame. Of course he is the one that was ultimately responsible for what happened but that doesn’t excuse the actions of the other people.

Should drug dealers never be prosecuted because they’re not forcing anyone to take drugs? Should drs that abuse their position for greed be allowed to get away with it because people are willing to pay them? All of the people involved knew they were breaking the law.

I’m sorry, but it seems like on here literally everyone is to blame except Matthew. For example we have no idea if the PA was also an addict, we know Brooke was but even she doesn’t have excuses made for her like Matthew.

The perks of being rich and famous! You can get away with horrible behaviour that the average person would be vilified for. If he were a long term addict living on the streets no one would care who sold him the drugs or give him a second thought unfortunately
