In a heartrending victim impact statement, Matthew Perry's mother, Suzanne Morrison, condemned the actor's former assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, for enabling the addiction that led to his death in 2023."His number one responsibility was to ensure that Matthew remained what he wanted to be: drug‑free," Morrison wrote."But instead of protecting Matthew, he aided and abetted illegal drug use, arranged for one source of supply and then another."
