Five people have been charged in the death of Matthew Perry last year. Police said Thursday that their investigation, which began in May, uncovered an "extensive underground criminal network" of drug suppliers who distributed large quantities of ketamine.

Perry, 54, died at his home in Los Angeles in October. A post-mortem examination found a high concentration of ketamine in his blood and determined that the "acute effects" of the controlled substance had killed him.

"These defendants took advantage of Mr. Perry's addiction problems to enrich themselves," U.S. Attorney Martin Estrada said Thursday. "They knew what they were doing and what Mr. Perry was risking, but they did it anyway."

Three of the defendants, including Perry's assistant, have pleaded guilty to drug charges, while two others, a doctor and a woman known as the "Queen of Ketamine," were arrested Thursday, according to the Justice Department./ CNA
