Matthew Perry 'froze up' after predatory doctor injected ketamine

Daily Mail  

The doctor accused of supplying the ketamine that killed Matthew Perry realized the actor could die when he saw him 'freeze up' from an overdose just days before his death, prosecutors have claimed. Iwamasa would relay Perry's requests in coded language, referring to bottles of ketamine as 'Dr Pepper', 'cans', and 'bots' via encrypted messaging apps. 'We allege each of the defendants played a key role in his death by falsely prescribing, selling, or injecting the ketamine that caused Matthew Perry's tragic death,' said DEA Administrator Anne Milgram. An autopsy found that the amount in Perry's blood was in the range used for general anesthesia during surgery, and listed 'the acute effects of ketamine' as the primary cause of death.
