    Matt LeBlanc looks 'unrecognizable' during rare outing in LA since Matthew Perry's ketamine death

    Mourning Friends star Matt LeBlanc was spotted in Los Angeles on Friday after the death of his friend Matthew Perry .

    The actor, who said he was "utterly devastated" by his beloved pal's death , kept it casual during his outing to a car showroom in the San Fernando Valley. Matt wore a black t-shirt with a a pair of dark wash jeans. He sported a pair of blue and orange sneakers with a gray baseball cap.

    The 57-year-old hasn't been seen in public since Dec. 2023 which is two months following Matthew's death. At the time, Matt paid tribute to his lost friend , writing online: "Matthew. It is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life. It was an honor to share the stage with you and to call you my friend."

    Matthew was found dead in his hot tub in Oct. 2023. First responders attempted a water rescue on the scene, but to no avail. An investigation was quickly conducted and, at first, no foul play was suspected. However, toxicology reports indicated that Matthew had ketamine in his system. The star was undergoing ketamine infusion therapy treatments, but now prosecutors have made five arrests in connection to his death, including two doctors who allegedly supplied him with the drugs beyond just standard medical purposes.

    One of those doctors, Dr. Mark Chavez, faces a potential 10-year prison sentence for his part in Perry's death after pleading guilty. Dr Salvador Plasencia, the other doctor, found his license revoked, but he's seeming to maintain his plea of not guilty.

    Matthew's roommate-turned-assistant Kenneth Iwamasa was arrested as well. Court documents obtained by The Mirror US show Iwamasa allegedly helped Matthew dope up with ketamine three times before his death, starting at 8:30 a.m. on his day of death.

    Jasveen Sangha, who has earned the nickname "the ketamine queen," faces a slew of charges including conspiracy to distribute ketamine, maintaining a drug-involved premises, possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine and ketamine, along with five counts of distributing ketamine. She has entered a plea of not guilty.

    Meanwhile, Eric Fleming, another one of Matthew's pals, has admitted to conspiring to dish out ketamine and actually handing it over, which ended in death.
