Although they were never acquainted, the passing of Matthew Perry has now been connected to his death.

When Kimberly McLaury's brother passed away, she felt the need to reach out to the person she believed was responsible for selling him the drug that ultimately took his life. After receiving her brother's phone back from the police, McLaury discovered a text conversation with the alleged dealer, showing that her brother had used Venmo to pay for the ketamine. She shared with CNN, "After his death certificate was released, I replied to the person and said, 'just so you know, the ketamine that you sold to my brother was listed as the cause of his death.'" However, she never received a response and assumed that the person didn't care.

Recently, Jasveen Sangha, the alleged dealer, was charged in connection with the death of actor Matthew Perry. The authorities revealed a disturbing link between the famous actor and Cody McLaury, an aspiring personal trainer who also died after using ketamine sold by the same dealer, who was known as "the Ketamine Queen". The prosecutors stated that they uncovered a network of doctors and drug suppliers responsible for distributing the ketamine that contributed to Perry's death at the young age of 54.

McLaury's brother, Cody, passed away four years before Perry and hours after Sangha allegedly sold him ketamine. He was living in Los Angeles at the time, where he had built strong friendships and was known for his kind heart. McLaury shared, "He loved living there and he was a very generous soul."

It wasn't until earlier this year, when investigators from the Los Angeles Police Department came to her home in Washington, that McLaury's family started to suspect a connection between Cody's death and Perry's. According to court documents, Sangha had even searched on Google whether ketamine could be listed as a cause of death, after receiving McLaury's text. The prosecutors used this as evidence that Sangha knew the potential deadly effects of unsupervised ketamine use.

Additionally, four other individuals were charged in connection with Perry's death, including two doctors and a personal assistant who lived with him. McLaury watched the press conference about the indictments from her home in Washington and shared that it brought up a mix of emotions, including sadness and a sense of vindication. She had always assumed that Sangha didn't care about her brother's death and was simply moving on with her life, but now she was relieved that justice was being served.

The use of ketamine has been a topic of discussion since Perry's death, as it has various medical uses but is also commonly used as a party drug. While it is approved for use as an anesthetic in medical settings, it is not approved for any mental health disorders. However, it has been prescribed off-label for conditions such as depression and chronic pain. Some experts have raised concerns about the potential for abuse and dependence when used without medical supervision.

Perry's cause of death was determined to be the result of the acute effects of ketamine and subsequent drowning. The actor was found floating face down in a jacuzzi at his home in Pacific Palisades. At the time, authorities confirmed that there was no foul play involved. In comparison, Cody McLaury's death did not receive much attention in the media, and his sister never expected any action to be taken. But now, she is glad that her brother's death is being included in the investigation.

"I am just happy that justice has been served and that after five years, they finally looked into my brother's death," McLaury said. She also encouraged people to follow her family's journey on their WhatsApp channel, where they share updates on breaking news, celebrities, and sports without any comments or algorithms.
