source that the investigation into Perry's untimely death
was "nearing its conclusion," 'New York Post' reports. .

Perry was found dead at his
home in Los Angeles on Oct. 28.
He was 54 years old. .
His death, which was ruled accidental, was
confirmed to be caused by the effects of ketamine.
According to an autopsy report, the 'Friends' actor had 3.54 micrograms per milliliter of ketamine in his bloodstream.
That's almost three times the typical amount a person would normally use, 'New York Post' reports. .
In his 2022 memoir,
'Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing,' Perry described ketamine as a "giant exhale.".
‘Oh,’ I thought, ‘This is what happens when
you die.’ Yet I would continually sign up for
this s--- because it was something different,
and anything different is good, Matthew Perry, via 'Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing'.
Other factors contributing to Perry's death included drowning, coronary artery disease and the effects of buprenorphine.
Local police and the DEA launched an investigation in May to determine where Perry got the ketamine that led to his death.

As for 'secretly fathered,'

Drinking Coffee While Pregnant , May Make Your Kids Shorter, Study Suggests.
The study was published by the
'Journal of the American Medical Association.'.
2,500 children between the ages of 4 and 8 were surveyed around the country.
Instead of relying on mothers to accurately report their coffee consumption as with previous studies.
blood samples were used to find exact caffeine and paraxanthine levels.
Researchers found that drinking half a cup of coffee each day while pregnant may make your child an inch shorter by the time they enter elementary school.
Researchers found that drinking half a cup of coffee each day while pregnant may make your child an inch shorter by the time they enter elementary school.
Though the clinical implications of an approximately 2-cm height difference are unclear, our findings for height are similar in magnitude to those of children whose mothers smoked during pregnancy, Study researchers, via 'New York Post'.
We consistently observed shorter height, which has been associated with increased risk of multiple cardiometabolic diseases in both pregnant and nonpregnant individuals, Study researchers, via 'New York Post'.
It is important to determine whether in utero caffeine exposure has long-term growth implications in offspring, Study researchers, via 'New York Post'.
'New York Post' reports that previous studies have also linked a lower birth weight to moderate coffee consumption while pregnant

Historically, we have seen how the
release of Surgeon General reports on
public health issues such as the dangers
of smoking ignited a wave of policy,
legal, and public health initiatives.., Dr. Joseph V. Sakran, Brady board chair
and chief medical officer, via CNN.
... that saved countless American
lives and in this case led to
deprogramming our nation from
the tobacco industry’s lies. , Dr. Joseph V. Sakran, Brady board chair
and chief medical officer, via CNN.
We hope this report will have
the same resounding impact on
the gun violence epidemic, Dr. Joseph V. Sakran, Brady board chair
