Investigation into the death of actor Matthew Perry is nearing its conclusion, with the possibility of charges being filed soon. Federal and state investigators have been looking into how Perry obtained ketamine, which was determined to be the primary cause of his death. The decision on whether to press charges will be made by the U.S. attorney's office, with the potential for federal or state charges. An autopsy revealed that ketamine level in Perry's blood was similar to that used for general anesthesia during surgery, and the investigation includes involvement of USDEA and USPS due to potential mailing of drugs or payments. The case has not been closed, and all important information has been provided.
