Matthew Perry's Blamed 'Greedy' Doctor
Matthew Perry's parents addressed the 'greedy' doctor they believed contributed to their son's death.
The “greedy” doctor confessed to injecting Matthew "without a legitimate medical purpose" before his death and was one of the five people who were convicted of crimes related to the sitcom star's death.
"How do you measure grief? Can you possibly provide any rational accounting?" the couple said in a passionate victim impact letter submitted to the court ahead of the doctor's sentencing, per documents obtained by Rolling Stone in December.
"Here was a life so entwined with ours and held aloft sometimes with duct tape and bailing wire, with anything that might keep that big terrible thing from killing our first-born son, and our hearts with him," they continued. "And then those greedy jackals come out of the dark, and all the effort is for nought; it all crashes down."
Dr. Salvador Plasencia Was Sentenced to 30 Months in Prison
Dr. Salvador Plasencia was sentenced to 30 months in prison for his role in Matthew Perry's death.
Matthew's parents claimed that if it wasn’t for the medical professional, the 17 Again star’s influence would have continued to impact the world positively.
"His story moved so many people. And he wanted, needed, deserved… a third act. It was... in the planning. And then, those jackals," they wrote.
Salvador, who operated an urgent care in Calabasas, was later sentenced to 30 months in federal prison after pleading guilty in July to four counts of distribution of ketamine.
