Some fans also expressed their disappointment over the fact that those who were arrested in connection with his death should have been the ones taking care of him.
One user commented, "So heartbreaking people you trusted took advantage of your addiction. So very sorry. I pray [you're] at peace. [Know] you were loved [and] talented."
A second person said, "I'm so sorry that the people who should have been taking care of you were the one's who took you from the world," while a third remarked, "I can't believe 5 people close to you took advantage of your addiction to enrich themselves."
Former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani echoed Perry's fans' remarks in an interview, in which he described the late actor's "entourage" as "leeches" who wanted to "milk" him of his money.
"Here's someone with a clear and well-documented opioid addiction, she said about the late actor, per Fox News Digital. "And, you know, there are people who are charging him thousands and thousands of dollars for ketamine and taking advantage of that addiction. It's really sad."

This week, authorities held a press conference to announce the arrest of five individuals in connection with Perry's death.
The individuals were Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez, who are doctors; Jasveen Sangha, a distributor; and Eric Fleming, a broker. Perry's assistant Kenneth Iwamasa was also arrested.
Iwamasa has since pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine, resulting in death, and Chavez has agreed to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine and will be arraigned on August 30.
Fleming pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute ketamine and one count of ketamine distribution, resulting in death.

Unlike the other three individuals arrested in connection to Perry's death, Sangha and Plasencia, the lead defendants in the case, pleaded not guilty at their separate arraignments.
Plascencia was granted release on a $100,000 bond, while Sangha was denied bond due to concerns about a possible flight risk over her dual U.S. and British citizenship.
Their trials have been scheduled for various dates in October, although prosecutors anticipate that these dates will be consolidated.

According to Rolling Stones, Perry's last words were to Iwamasa to "prepare the jacuzzi" for him and should "shoot" him up with "a big one."
As Perry's assistant, Iwamasa took on the role of often administering the injections of ketamine despite having no medical training or experience to do so.
On the day of Perry's death, he had previously administered two ketamine injections to the late actor. After the third injection, Iwamasa left to run some errands, only to return and find Perry unconscious and "face down" in the hot tub of his Los Angeles mansion.
Having pleaded guilty, Iwamasa faces up to 15 years in prison, while Fleming faces up to 25 years. Both Plascencia and Sangha could face even more severe sentences if convicted. Sangha faces the possibility of life in prison, while Plascencia could be sentenced to up to 120 years.
