原文及翻譯
A prosecutor says five people have been charged in connection with Matthew Perry's death from a ketamine overdose last year, including the actor's assistant and two doctors.
一名檢察官稱，去年馬修·佩里因過量服用氯胺酮而死亡，已有五人受到指控，其中包括該演員的助理和兩名醫(yī)生。
U.S. Attorney Martin Estrada announced the charges Thursday, saying the doctors supplied Perry with a large amount of ketamine and even wondered in a text message how much the former "Friends" star would be willing to pay.
美國檢察官馬丁·埃斯特拉達(dá)周四宣布了這些指控，稱這些醫(yī)生向佩里提供了大量氯胺酮，甚至在短信中詢問這位前《老友記》明星愿意支付多少錢。
"These defendants took advantage of Mr. Perry's addiction issues to enrich themselves. They knew what they were doing was wrong," Estrada said.
“這些被告利用佩里先生的毒癮問題來中飽私囊。他們知道自己在做錯事，”埃斯特拉達(dá)說。
Perry died in October due to a ketamine overdose and received several injections of the drug on the day he died from his live-in personal assistant. The assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, is the one who found Perry dead later that day.
佩里于10月因過量服用氯胺酮而死亡，死當(dāng)天，他的住家私人助理給他注射了數(shù)次這種藥物。當(dāng)天晚些時(shí)候，發(fā)現(xiàn)佩里已死的就是這位助理肯尼斯·巖正。
The actor went to the two charged doctors in desperation after his regular doctors refused to give him ketamine in the amounts he wanted. DEA Administrator Anne Milgram said in one instance the actor paid $2,000 for a vial of ketamine that cost one of the physicians about $12.
這位演員的常規(guī)醫(yī)生拒絕給他注射他想要的劑量的氯胺酮，他絕望地去找了兩名被指控的醫(yī)生。緝毒局局長安妮·米爾格拉姆 (Anne Milgram) 表示，有一次，這位演員花了2,000美元購買了一瓶氯胺酮，而其中一名醫(yī)生只花了12美元。
Two of the people, including one of the doctors charged, were arrested Thursday, Estrada said. Two of the defendants, including Iwamasa, have pleaded guilty to charges already, and a third person has agreed to plead guilty.
埃斯特拉達(dá)說，包括一名被指控的醫(yī)生在內(nèi)的兩人于周四被捕。包括巖正在內(nèi)的兩名被告已經(jīng)對指控認(rèn)罪，第三人也同意認(rèn)罪。
Multiple messages left seeking comment from lawyers or offices for all the defendants have not yet been returned.
多條留言尋求所有被告的律師或辦公室的評論，但尚未得到回復(fù)。
