Documents Reveal Matthew Perry's Heartbreaking Last Words
HuffPost
The "Friends" star's personal assistant Kenneth Iwamasa, who pleaded guilty to injecting Perry with the drug, revealed his last words in a plea agreement.
The last known words of Matthew Perry, who died in October from an accidental overdose following repeated injections of ketamine, were revealed in court documents after five people were charged in connection to the actor’s death.
According to a plea agreement reported on by multiple media outlets last week, the actor’s personal live-in assistant Kenneth Iwamasa, who pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute ketamine causing death, said Perry’s last words were: “Shoot me up with a big one.”
The late “Friends” star had navigated substance abuse issues for years and chronicled his addiction struggle in a memoir, “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing,” only to be found dead in his jacuzzi on Oct. 28 by Iwamasa.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner confirmed in December that Perry had died from the “acute effects of ketamine.” The Department of Justice announced last Thursday that Iwamasa had admitted to “repeatedly injecting Perry” with the drug on the day that he died.
The other defendants charged in connection to the actor’s death include alleged drug dealer Jasveen Sangha and physicians Dr. Mark Chavez and Dr. Salvador Plasencia. A fifth defendant, Erik Fleming, said he obtained 50 vials of ketamine from Sangha and provided them to Iwamasa.
