In a recent episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke delves into the investigation surrounding the death of Matthew Perry. Perry's death, initially perceived as a tragic overdose, is now under scrutiny to determine if others could be held responsible for providing the drugs found in his system, specifically ketamine. Dreeke highlights the complexities of proving criminal liability in such cases, especially when the deceased had a history of controlled substance use under medical supervision. Drawing parallels to Michael Jackson's case, Dreeke suggests that Perry's situation may involve licensed clinicians who might have prescribed the drugs under specific conditions. The discussion also touches on the difficulty of tracking and prosecuting illicit drug sources, particularly when individuals adeptly navigate the system to obtain prescriptions. Perry's openness about his addiction might aid investigators in tracing the origins of the drugs. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the broader issues within the medical and legal systems that allow individuals to fall through the cracks, despite their efforts to combat addiction.
**Main Points:**
- Investigation into Matthew Perry's death now includes potential charges against those who supplied his drugs.
- Toxicology reports show ketamine levels higher than a typical medical dose.
- Comparison made to Michael Jackson's case, highlighting the role of medical professionals.
- Difficulty in proving criminal liability due to Perry's ongoing medical treatments.
- Potential involvement of licensed clinicians who may have over-prescribed drugs.
- Challenges in tracking prescription drugs from multiple sources.

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer discusses the controversial actions of attorney John Ray, who recently accused Victoria Heuermann, daughter of the alleged Long Island serial killer Rex Heuermann, of being involved in her father's crimes. Ray, representing some victims' families, called Victoria a "human devil" and linked her to Rex's alleged deeds, despite no evidence from law enforcement supporting these claims. Coffindaffer criticizes Ray's public accusations as reckless and speculative, arguing that any evidence should be given to the police, not presented in a press conference. She emphasizes that Victoria and Asa Ellerup, Rex's wife, have been cleared by law enforcement so far. The discussion highlights the potential damage to Ray's credibility and the possible legal repercussions Victoria could pursue. Coffindaffer concludes that Ray's approach was inappropriate and damaging, suggesting that such matters should be handled through proper investigative channels.
### Main Points
- **Accusations by John Ray:** Ray accused Victoria Heuermann of involvement in Rex Heuermann's alleged crimes.
- **No Evidence:** Law enforcement has found no evidence implicating Victoria or Asa Ellerup.
- **Reckless Public Accusations:** Ray's public statements are criticized as speculative and damaging.
- **Proper Procedure:** Emphasis on providing evidence to the police, not through press conferences.
- **Impact on Credibility:** Ray's credibility is questioned due to his approach.
