Investigators uncovered a vast underground ketamine dealing network following Matthew Perry's death. The actor had high levels of ketamine in his blood, far exceeding what should have been there after his last therapy appointment. The investigation resulted in five arrests, including individuals like "The Ketamine Queen". Doctors and dealers exploited Perry by charging exorbitant prices for ketamine. Cover-up attempts were made by those accused of supplying Perry with the drugs. Perry's assistant, who was untrained, administered over 20 shots of ketamine to him in the days leading up to his death. Perry's hope was to help others with his openness about addiction, as reflected in his foundation's mission. The arrests and details shared may help prevent similar tragedies.
