The mysterious death of Matthew Perry has gradually become clearer and now they have revealed new details in which they believe this tragedy could have been avoided. Police sources told TMZ that when they arrived at the Friends actor’s house, the body had not been in the water for long since he lost vital signs; he had practically just died when they found him.
Let us remember that previous statements highlight that the day he died, the actor went to play pickleball at the Riviera Country Club and when he returned home, he asked his assistant to run an errand. Once Matthew’s request was fulfilled, his assistant found the actor submerged in the water. When he realized that he was not responding, he immediately called the emergency services.
Could Matthew’s death have been avoided?
And that is when many claim that the actor who played the beloved Chandler Bing could have been saved: “If only someone had been with him or his assistant had arrived at his house sooner…”. Unfortunately, it is something without recoil. On Saturday, October 28, 2023, the death of Matthew Perry was confirmed, at 54 years of age and we all still do not believe that he is no longer here.
The first official reports ruled out that it was a criminal act, but the investigations remain open since although no drugs were found at the scene, there were prescribed medicines such as antidepressants and anxiolytics. Sources also told the aforementioned media that authorities found a medication for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which is regularly used in people with emphysema or chronic bronchitis.
Something that has attracted attention, since everything indicates that the actor wanted to recover his health and after being a smoker for almost his entire life, he was already determined to quit since there were also Nicorette patches and gum in the house. For now, this is all the information that has been revealed. The Los Angeles coroner has yet to determine his official cause of death with toxicology results, which would take at least six more weeks.
