Death of Matthew Perry: One of the Suspects Admitted His Guilt.


The doctor who treated Hollywood actor Matthew Perry has pleaded guilty to the actor's death. The doctor changed his plea to a charge of conspiracy to distribute the surgical anesthetic ketamine.
Chavez sold ketamine tablets to Perry, who used them. The doctor stated that he obtained ketamine from both his former clinic and a wholesale distributor using a fake prescription.
The plea agreement allows Chavez to plead guilty to a lesser charge for his cooperation in the investigation. He faces up to 10 years in prison.
Chavez has already surrendered his passport and agreed to immediately surrender his medical license. He is currently released on bail.
Matthew Perry died in October 2023. The cause of his death was a ketamine overdose.
One of the doctors accused of Perry's death was banned from practicing medicine after expressing remorse.
