Matthew Perry’s longtime live-in assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa pleaded guilty to a charge in his death and now he’s leaning on the cast of Friends to come to his defense. While the alleged drug dealers, doctors, and enablers were also charged, Kenneth quickly cooperated with authorities and pled guilty, hoping for no jail time. Here’s why. Kenneth worked for Matthew for 25 years and saw him through countless battles of addiction. Although he admitted to injecting Matthew with Ketamine, he was only doing so at Matthew’s request, (after all, it’s hard to say no to the boss when your income and housing are at stake!) According to my source, Kenneth’s legal team is hoping to get the his former Friends costars to write letters in his defense, because they reportedly have seen Matthew be demanding and abusive to him while under the influence of drugs. And get ready for this: if he is sentenced to jail, Kenneth is thinking about writing a book about the quarter of a century he spent working with Matthew. As my source put it, he definitely knows where the bodies are buried, and he has a shovel ready to dig up the dirt.
