Five people have been charged in connection with the death of Friends star Matthew Perry from an accidental ketamine overdose last October, United States Attorney Martin Estrada told a press briefing.
The charges come after the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) announced in May that they were working with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) on an investigation into the circumstances surrounding Perry’s death.
Mr Estrada said the investigation uncovered a “broad underground criminal network responsible for distributing large quantity of ketamine to Perry and others”.
