Matthew Perry‘s death is continuing to make headlines amid new arrests.
The Friends actor sadly passed away at the age of 54 last year, and now several people have been charged in the death from “acute effects of ketamine.”
On the day he died, his live-in personal assistant gave him his first ketamine shot of the morning at around 8:30 a.m. About four hours later, while he watched a movie at his home in Los Angeles, the assistant gave him another injection, according to court papers obtained by the New York Times.

40 minutes later, he wanted another shot, his assistant Kenneth Iwamasa recalled in a plea agreement that he signed.
“Shoot me up with a big one,” he reportedly told his assistant, according to the agreement, and asked him to prepare his hot tub.
Kenneth filled a syringe with ketamine, gave his boss a third shot and left the house to run some errands, according to the documents. When he returned, he found Matthew face down in the water.
He was one of five people who was charged with a conspiracy to distribute ketamine. The defendants also included two doctors, a woman accused of being a dealer, and an acquaintance who pled guilty to acting as a middleman.
His stepfather has also just spoken out following the arrests.
