Matthew Perry's death investigation, according to a source, is nearing its end, and authorities believe multiple individuals may be held responsible for his tragic passing.

Perry, a beloved Friends actor, died on October 28 at the age of 54, with ketamine use listed as a contributing factor. The U.S. Attorney's Office will decide whether to file charges.

According to Los Angeles Police Department officials, the investigation into Perry's death remains ongoing and active, with the department continuing to work on the case, Fox News Digital has confirmed.

"The Department has an open and ongoing investigation into Matthew Perry‘s death," authorities said.

The U.S. Attorney's Office declined to comment on the status of the investigation into Matthew Perry's death, while the Los Angeles Police Department continues to work with the DEA and U.S. Postal Inspection Service to determine how the actor obtained the large quantity of ketamine that contributed to his fatal overdose in October, as previously reported by The Associated Press.

According to Matthew Perry's autopsy report, trace amounts of ketamine were found in his stomach contents, but "The exact method of intake in Mr. Perry's case is unknown."

The report also listed contributing factors to his death as "coronary artery disease, buprenorphrine effects." Additionally, "prescription medications and loose pills" were discovered at his residence, the autopsy revealed.
