Matthew Perry: autopsy inconclusive, investigation into causes of death continues

While the world mourns the death of actor Matthew Perry, the precise causes of his death are still not known. The star actor of the series Friends was found dead in his jacuzzi last Saturday in Los Angeles. If the criminal trail has been ruled out, the Los Angeles police have not yet communicated the causes of the death of the 54-year-old actor.

The autopsy carried out the day after the tragedy was inconclusive, the Los Angeles forensic doctors postponed the announcement of their conclusions on the death of Matthew Perry. Doctors are awaiting the results of ongoing toxicological analyses, but the verdict will not come for several weeks, according to several The New York Times. These toxicological analyzes were carried out after medications (antidepressants and anxiolytics) were found in the American actor's home, explains the specialist media TMZ. However, no drugs were found at the scene of the death, adds the American media.

The actor who played Chandler in the series Friends fought against his addictions all his life. In his book Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing: A Memoir published in 2022, Matthew Perry explained that he spent more than $9 million on detoxification sessions and underwent several operations, more or less serious, because of his addictions. .
