Eric Anderson recently spoke to Fox News about the recent charges brought against five individuals, including two doctors, in the wake of actor Matthew Perry’s death. Eric explains that because Perry was a public figure with widely-known substance abuse struggles, the charges against those in his inner circle are simple.
“If your drug dealing leads to the death of a prominent person, then you will be charged with murder, and it will not go unnoticed,” Eric tells Fox.
“Perry was a beloved celebrity with substance abuse issues that were well known. He was very public about it and his work to stay sober. Here, the allegations are that people close to him, with great access to him, played upon that vulnerability and laughed about it,” he continues. “Even after prior warnings that their conduct of providing and injecting him with ketamine was a serious health risk to Perry, they allegedly kept doing it.”
