Despite ongoing investigations into his untimely demise, a friend paints a contrasting picture of Matthew Perry's demeanor the day before his passing, describing him as upbeat and sober.
Eight months after Matthew Perry's life was tragically cut short, authorities continue to unravel the circumstances surrounding his demise. While the investigation nears its conclusion, a close friend has shared an unexpected account of Perry's behavior in the hours leading up to his passing.
Athenna Crosby, a longtime friend of the late actor, revealed to Fox News Digital that Perry was "extremely positive, sober" when she met him for lunch the day before his untimely death. Crosby's description starkly contrasts with the ongoing investigation that suggests Perry's system contained a significant amount of ketamine at the time of his drowning.

Crosby recounted her lunch meeting with Perry, which took place at his Los Angeles home. She described him as "acting normal" and exhibiting no signs of distress or impairment. "He was the same guy I'd always known," Crosby said. "He was funny, smart, and engaged in the conversation."
Despite the conflicting accounts, Perry's autopsy revealed that he died from the "acute effects of ketamine," a dissociative anesthetic drug. Trace amounts of ketamine were detected in his stomach contents, and the medical examiner determined that the levels present in his system could not have originated from a recent infusion therapy.

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is actively investigating the case, working closely with the DEA and U.S. Postal Inspection Service to determine how Perry obtained the ketamine. Authorities believe that multiple individuals may face charges related to the actor's death.
While the investigation continues, Perry's friends and family struggle to reconcile the contrasting images of the actor's final days. Cosby's account of a positive and sober encounter paints a stark contrast to the tragic circumstances that led to his untimely demise.
