LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Matthew Perry's fatal overdose of ketamine was delivered to him through the US postal service by drug dealers, according to a law enforcement source. This revelation follows a comprehensive investigation into the actor's death, which involved the Los Angeles Police Department, the US Postal Service, and the Drug Enforcement Administration. 

The investigation is nearing its end, with expectations that "multiple people" may face charges related to Perry's death on October 28, 2023.

Significant progress has been made in Perry's case as investigators delve into the drug dealers who supplied him with ketamine, as per Radar Online. According to a person close to the investigation, "The investigation has been complex, detailed, and it has unraveled a complex network of drug dealers who operated online and who utilized the US post for the delivery of illegal drugs to his Hollywood Hills home."

It's notable that Brooke Mueller, former wife of Hollywood star Charlie Sheen, is a person of interest in the investigation, as she had spent time with Perry in a sober living facility before his death.

Concerns arose when she was absent during a police check. Law enforcement officers executed a search warrant and confiscated Mueller's iPhone and laptop from her residence at a sober living facility in Los Angeles. She was later questioned "multiple times" and released without charges, according to a source.

Gregory J Pedrick, Sheen's longtime lawyer, commented on June 26, stating, "This extended family has worked hard to restore serenity to their ecosystem – to the great benefit of their children." Mueller, who has battled with substance abuse for over a decade, has retained a team of criminal defense attorneys following the execution of the search warrant.

Perry, the 54-year-old former star of the TV show 'Friends', was found unresponsive in the hot tub of his Los Angeles residence on October 28 of last year. His autopsy results, released in December, indicated that the level of ketamine in Perry's bloodstream was within the range typically administered for anesthesia during surgical procedures.

Close associates of Perry informed investigators that he had been undergoing ketamine infusion therapy—an experimental treatment aimed at alleviating depression and anxiety.  However, the medical examiner noted that Perry's last treatment session, which occurred a week and a half prior, could not account for the elevated ketamine levels detected in his system when he was found unconscious.

In his memoir titled 'Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing', published less than a year before his tragic death, Perry openly discussed his use of ketamine. Referring to the drug, he wrote, "It's used for two reasons - to ease pain and help with depression. Has my name written all over it—they might as well have called it 'Matty.'"

Matthew Perry’s fans say ‘someone needs to be accountable’

Matthew Perry's fans were devastated after learning about the underground drug dealers responsible for delivering the fatal dose of Ketamine to the late star.

One fan dubbed the deals as "scammers" while another one said, "Very sad. Even sadder are the thousands of addicts who don’t get this kind of investigation when they die. Authorities and the general public often blame the addict. But when it’s a celebrity we blame others."

One user mocked, "Another druggy so sad." One fan commented, "Someone need to be accountable." Another fan claimed, "Ugghhh heartbreaking."
