老友记“钱德勒”案新进展：5人被捕，“庞大犯罪网络”被揭露！（朗读版）| E0820

▍原文

Five arrests have been made amid a drug investigation into the death of "Friends" star Matthew Perry.

The Department of Justice said that an investigation revealed a "broad underground criminal network," including Perry's assistant and doctors, who "took advantage" of the actor by selling him ketamine.

"In the end, these defendants were more interested in profiting off Mr. Perry than caring for his well being," said the U.S. Attorney, announcing the charges.
