Inside Matthew Perry and Brooke Mueller's complex relationship

A new source revealed to Us Weekly that the connection between the late Matthew Perry and Brooke Mueller extended beyond casual encounters at rehab. The source describes a complex relationship where Perry, battling addiction, would ask Mueller for favors, including sharing names of doctors who were more liberal with medication. The source claims that Mueller was a "pawn" to Perry and that their communication was often initiated by him, despite attempts from those around him to prevent it.

This revelation comes amidst the ongoing investigation into Perry's death, which was caused by the acute effects of ketamine. Earlier this month, five people were indicted on federal charges related to the actor's death, including Perry's personal assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa. Mueller has not been arrested but was reportedly questioned by police in connection to Perry's death.

The source's account sheds light on a previously unknown aspect of Perry's life and struggles with addiction. It also raises questions about the extent to which Mueller was involved in Perry's access to potentially harmful medications. As the investigation continues, more details about Perry's final years and the people around him may come to light.
