assistant, two doctors and two drug suppliers have been charged in connection to his overdose death last october. >> these defendants took advantage of mr. perry's addiction issues to enrich themselves. they knew what they were doing was wrong, they knew what they were doing was risking great danger to matthew perry. >> ketamine perry's primary cause of his death. let's jump in with steve patterson. steve, first off, what can you tell us about the people indicted here? >> five people list on this indictment. one of them matthew perry's personal assistant. another associate, thought to be a distributor, a go-between

between people distributing drugs. one of them known a drug dealer known as the ketamine queen. and actual doctors. took an oath to serve and save lives, instead serving matthew perry according to prosecutors in time of his great need until his death. listen to prosecutors describe one of the doctors demand listed as the defendant on the complaint about him talking about matthew perry as a subject of a drug deal. listen to this. >> the defendant saw this as an opportunity to profit off of mr. perry. he wrote in a text message in september 2023, quote, i wonder how much this moron will pay. he also stated in text messages he wanted to be mr. perry's sole

source of supply, he wrote in a text message he wanted to be mr. perry's quote, go-to for drugs. >> reporter: that doctor accused of distributing 20 vials of ketamine in about a month before perry's death. >> wow, steve, as we mentioned two of the defendants are expected in court later today, what's next in this case and what are we hearing from perry's family in. >> reporter: so these two defendants would be one, the person that prosecutor was just talking about this dr. p. accused of distributing to matthew perry and the other is ketamine queen, both are expected in court within a half-hour of each other, that's what's next as prosecutors continue to build their case. >> steve patterson with the latest for us, thanks so much. this afternoon, vice president harris and president biden appear together for the

first time since biden dropped out of the 2024 race, they were in maryland for an official white house event to speak about lowering drug prices for americans on medicare, this morning the white house announced an agreement with drugmakers to lower the prices on the ten most expensive prescription drugs under medicare. the administration projects this deal will save the government program $6 billion and medicare users $1.5 billion in its first year. monica alba and berkeley lovelace jr. join me now from washington. monica, why did the president and vice president choose to message on this right now. >> reporter: the timing specifically is because the actual anniversary of the inflation reduction act is tomorrow, and that was the piece of legislation that authorized the administration to make some of these key changes that probably won't go into effect and americans won't feel for some time. but the fact that it's even

happening is really significant when you're talking about these different prescription drugs and the prices that are just so high that will be brought down in some manner, but we heard a little bit more from vice president harris today on specifically why this matters, and why they're making a big point of it now, listen. >> medicare represents more than 65 million people. and so medicare has collective bargain power and now medicare can use that power to go to toe to toe with big pharma and negotiate lower drug prices. [ cheers and applause ] . >> thank you, joe. >> reporter: this was an official event for the president and the vice president. they're touting work in the biden/harris administration. the umbrella of this economic

policy rollout that vice president harris is expected to do now as the democratic nominee and tomorrow in north carolina, she's going to be talking more about corporate price gouging and trying to help bring prices down and inflation largely the theme of this week both on the political side of things and in terms of the official agenda, too. >> let's dig into the numbers now, berkeley, what has been negotiated here and for the american consumer what kind of changes can they expect to see and when. >> reporter: these are the ten costliest drugs under medicare, 65 million people on medicare, these are pretty big discounts, for example we have a diabetes drug, it will cost $119 for a 30-day supply down from a list price of $495. another popular drug xarelto that will cost $197, these

prices won't go into effect until 2026 but the biden administration is saying the cost is projected save medicare users $1.5 billion in the first year they go in effect. it's expected to $6 million for medicare as well. >> berkeley, drugmakers have pseudothe government over this, what's their reasoning and could we see a reversal. >> reporter: that's the big question mark, drug companies have been going to court trying to block a provision in the inflation reduction about, but so far they've been unsuccessful, they're arguing that this will harm innovation . so far the argument hasn't work. in the meantime the government is continuing to negotiate and so they'll continue the next year, they'll negotiate ten more drugs and after that they'll negotiate another 15 drugs, so it's still up in the air whether or not these lawsuits will

follow through. >> berkeley lovelace and monica thank you both. on the republican side of the presidential race, former president donald trump will hold his second press conference in a week later today, the event will be at his golf club in new jersey the former president spoke with reporters for more than an hour at his florida estate last week. j.d. vance and tim walz have agreed to a debate on october 1st. vaughn hillyard, we've been reporting this week on the former president struggling to stay on message, many of his allies encouraging him to do so, what is trump campaign saying about expectations for this press conference? >> reporter: this is a press conference where we, from the eye i caught a few moments ago, the expectation after yesterday's rally in north carolina billed as an economic

address, focus a little bit on economic policy, veered off into personal attacks on kamala harris, but this event is clearly designed or intended to at least hold up the prior price of grocery items over the course of the years of the biden administration. two years ago inflation was up 7%, 8%, it's down under 3%. with 2 1/2 left until this election, there's been urging from allies for trump to focus on policy. >> vaughn, the harris campaign said it's open to a second presidential debate in october only if former president trump shows up to the first one september 10th, it used to be we didn't debate debates, what's going on with this back and forth here? >> reporter: right, usually it was the presidential debate commission that would set up three presidential debates and

both candidates would show up to them. but they're working with independent news organizations, so far both sides have agreed to that september 10th debate. the harris campaign suggesting they want to agree to a second debate in october, now notably donald trump and his team have said they'd like to have a debate on fox on september 4th, as well as on nbc on september 25th, this is harris campaign countering they want at least a second debate but they want it in october, the three proposed by the trump team all in september. >> vaughn hillyard, thank you. time now for today's money minute. retail sales were better than expected in july and amazon could soon be taking to the sky in the uk. kate rogers joins us now. hi, kate. consumer spending did hold up better than expected in july as inflationary pressures eased

responds to being stripped of the olympic bronze medal in the individual floor event in paris. let's get to emilie ikeda tracking this story from the start. so much back and forth, why was she stripped of this to begin with and talk to us about how she's responding now. >> reporter: jordan chiles, she said that she was removing herself from social media, she was being quiet in the wake of the news that she was being stripped of the medal. that her coach didn't appeal her score within the time. she posted a pretty lengthy statement on social media that talks about, she said she's overwhelmed by the love and support by family, friends and u.s. officials. she calls the news of being stripped of her medal pretty devastating. the statement reading in part -- the unprompted racially driven attacks on social media are wrong and extremely hurtful. she goes on the say, i'm now

that, those are the public numbers from june. i'm hearing as of this month, as of this week, border-wide they're looking at under 2,000 border crossings per day, border crossers who don't go through the legal ports of entry and a big reason for that is because of that asylum policy that went into place in early june. there are different ways they can be block from claiming it. now going forward that's a problem for places like texas governor greg abbott, these greyhound buses a place where abbott would send buses daily to cities like chicago, new york and denver, now we asked the abbott office they're not sending those migrants they said it's because of that drop.

they took the credit for it. lot of it has to do with the biden administration policy. >> julia, briefly, what about the migrants themselves, i've reported from new york when they arrived in these cities, what has life been like for them after they arrive. >> reporter: it's somewhat easier now because more of them are able to get authorization to work, they're having more heartbreaking teams. i spoke to one woman today who was able to get across with her son but her husband was sent back. >> julia ainsley, great reporting, thank you. still ahead, bermuda braces for hurricane ernesto, when for hurricane ernesto, when people t[coughing] copd isn't pretty. i'm out of breath, and often out of the picture. but this is my story.

(♪♪) bottom of the hour now, here are so much the stories making headlines on "nbc news daily." a russian american woman has been sentenced to 12 years in a

russian prison. a russian court found her guilty of treason for donating $51 to a charity supporting ukraine, she's a ballerina with dual citizenship who lives in los angeles. she was arrested earlier this year while visiting family in russia. she pleaded guilty to the accusations to a trial last week. her lawyer says he'll appeal the sentence and is working toward a prisoner swap between russia and the united states. cinema fans around the world are mourning the death of hollywood icon gena rowlands. her death was confirmed by her son who revealed earlier this year that she was battling alzheimer's disease. she was 94 years old. take a look at this. a dramatic rescue in texas last month, a young boy flagged down a police officer to save his mother whose car was submerged in a pond.

>> she's having a seizure. she's in 2 water. come on. >> his mom was experiencing a seizure, she passed out and put her foot on the gas pedal sending her car plunging into the water. with help some from good samaritans, the officer managed to break into the car and rescue her. the two kids were able to get out on their own. she's expected to make a full recovery. we're closely tracking hurricane ernesto as it barrels its way toward bermuda. the national hurricane center said it's expected to strengthen before it makes landfall. right now, people in puerto rico are picking up the pieces after ernesto dropped nearly a foot of rain on the island just yesterday. the floodwaters swept away cars, broke a dam and knocked out power for more than 500,000 people. the worse of it could still be yet to come. nbc news correspondent steven romo just arrived in bermuda and joins us now. steven, what are the conditions like right now and how are

people there preparing? >> reporter: we're actually starting to get some of the rain from the outer most bands, even though this storm isn't supposed to pass closely by the island until saturday, the national hurricane center, saying it looks like a category 2, but the island is taking its seriously, they cleared out boats from the marina right now, and driving here, many of the structures are made of concrete the standards here for buildings are quite high but surprise to see not a lot of boards on the windows of the homes, you can see behind me. but nonetheless, authorities here are telling people that transportation services will be shut down as we head closer to when the storm is set to approach. city hall and other city services will be shut down as well. talking to tourists here, upset they planned their trips to coincide with this hurricane.

some are looking to get back home before the storm gets here. >> do we know how strong ernesto can get when reaching the island. >> reporter: it was looking like it could be a category 3 which would be a major hurricane, it's now looking like it's more likely to be a category 2, it's tracking a bit to the west of bermuda, which could be a good thing, the conditions actually could get here pretty rough here coming up on saturday when the storm is expected to move in. >> steven romo, thank you. you know those terms and conditions that many of us agree to without reading. disney is trying to use them to fend off a wrongful death lawsuit. disney is saying he can't sue because he agreed to arbitrate

any disputes with the company when he signed up for a free trial of disney plus in 2019. joining me now is amy feldman, anyone listening to this, what on earth does disney plus have to do with this a restaurant that was at disney world and what does it mean to arbitrate a dispute. >> that's a very good question, first of all, most people don't know binding arbitration is or what the problem is when they sign up for those terms and conditions, which as you said most people don't even read. binding arbitration means that if you have a dispute with the other party a trial by jury, you don't get to speak before your peers about why they are owe you money, instead you have to go with a neutral arbitrator and it's binding, so if you don't like what the arbitrator has to say, you don't have the opportunity to appeal it. >> and amy, we should note that

the plaintiff's lawyers say that disney's claim is, quote, so outrageously unreasonable and unfair to shock the judicial conscience, meanwhile disney issued a statement saying, quote, we're deeply saddened by the family's loss and understand their grief. given that this restaurant is neither owned nor operated by disney we are operated -- it's a lot back and forth. we interact with products from big corporations every single day, what does it mean for the average consumer? >> they should be terrified what it means. right, because a reasonable person would not think, because i signed up for a trial subscription to disney plus, that i don't have the right to sue for an injury that happened on a disney property, think of all of the various multinational

corporations that have ton of affiliates do you think when you sign up for a website for one product which you haven't read the terms or conditions you lose the right to sue any other product that company has anything to do with it, it's terrifying and the lawyer is correct, it's a very surprising and quite unconscionable view. >> if these terms and conditions are view as binding contracts could regularly people try to negotiate and get them changed. >> you know, a lot of arguments, sometimes against credit card companies, sometimes against other companies where they said, i didn't read it, i didn't understand, i didn't know, these binding arbitration clauses have been upheld, within those terms of use the company has not made it clear there was a case where

the company didn't make it clear or didn't clearly explain what is binding arbitration or what you're giving up, you do need to be very mindful of what else this is going to prevent you from doing. and its affiliate, you have binding arbitration from this company and its affiliates. >> really good point to end on. amy feldman, always appreciate it. thanks so much. it's been nearly 20 years since scott peterson was convicted of murdering his pregnant wife lacey and this week two new docuseries shedding light. >> reporter: it's the chilling case that's still a national obsession. >> he didn't want to be a

father, this is the way he thought about getting out of it. >> reporter: now for the first time since going to prison, convicted murderer scott peterson is speaking out. >> why should anyone want to hear your side of the story? >> because i didn't kill my family. >> reporter: in "face to face with scott peterson" by peacock, the 51-year-old gives his own version of events from behind prison walls. in interviews done over an entire year, peterson appearing in good health with longer hair, continues to maintain his innocence, and is confident in ongoing efforts to free him. >> there's no forensic evidence, there's nothing to tie him to the murder. >> reporter: peterson was sentenced to death in 2004 for the 2000 murders of his wife, laci, and unborn, son connor, after their bodies washed up in san francisco bay, near where peterson said he'd gone fishing months area. >> she trusted her husband and he betrayed her. >> reporter: in the netflix docuseries, "american murder: laci peterson," laci is at the center of the story. her mother, sharon rocha, speaking out for the first time

in years about peterson's conviction. >> i can't say we're all excited and happy about it. that's not the feeling that i have at all. just a relief. >> reporter: also speaking out, peterson's former girlfriend, amber frey, whose decision to come forward about their relationship helped prosecutors establish a motive. >> on the stand, i wasn't just sitting there alone. but i was sitting there for laci and her unborn child. >> reporter: in "face-to-face," peterson admits his affair with frey was a terrible mistake, saying he withheld that information from police to focus on finding laci. in 2020, california's supreme court overturned peterson's death sentence, citing jury selection errors by the trial judge and resentenced him to life without parole. he was denied a new trial in 2022. now backed by the l.a. innocence project, peterson is trying again.
