[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The dealers should definitely be prosecuted. I have mixed feelings about the personal assistant. Matthew was his employer. If he refused to give him injections, the most likely scenario was that he would have been replaced by a new assistant who agreed. The assistant wasn’t in a position to refuse without risking his job. Should he have chosen to walk away instead of enable his boss? Perhaps, but he’s not solely responsible for what happened.[/quote] Whether it was a desire to hold onto the salary paid by Perry or because he had some stake in the drug transactions themselves, the personal assistant was motivated by greed and not by the fiduciary duty and best interests calculus owed to Perry. He’s an addict, and addicts relapse, and the PA should have refused to participate - that was his moral duty. I feel sorry for Matthew Perry. Nobody chooses addiction, even if they take drugs the first time voluntarily. Some people suffer really horrible addiction and no, it’s not a moral failing, we have abundant evidence from neuroscience establishing beyond a shadow of doubt that the addict brain reacts differently than a brain of a person without the same characteristics. It’s biological - hormonal. It’s just more science denial to assert that addiction is not a medical condition or that it is entirely within the power of the addict.[/quote]
