Jim Carrey I Have Proof Deceased GF Phonied Medical Records to Extort Me 
 
 Jim Carrey Says He Has Proof Deceased Girlfriend Phonied Records to Extort Him 
 
 EXCLUSIVE 
 
 The woman who claimed she became suicidal after Jim Carrey gave her herpes created an elaborate extortion scheme with fake medical records to make it seem she was clean before she met Jim ... this according to new legal docs. 
 
 Carrey now claims Cathriona White -- who committed suicide in 2015 -- had herpes before they met, but needed to change the facts. So he says she got her friend's medical records showing a clean bill of health, and then altered them to make it appear the records were hers. 
 
 According to Carrey's new legal docs, White then presented the before and after medical records, claiming it was proof -- the only change was that she started having sex with him and got genital herpes. 
 
 Carrey claims in legal docs they have a smoking gun in the form of text messages from White to her friend ... asking the friend numerous times to go to Planned Parenthood to get her medical records and one of the text messages says, "I need to see the layout ... I will need to work on it before I give it to him." 
 
 The new docs were filed in connection with a lawsuit brought by White's husband and mother, who claim Carrey gave her the disease and that's why she killed herself. 
 
 Carrey's legal team just made an ultimatum ... either ante up non-forged medical records or admit she had multiple STDs before she even met the actor. 
 
 Michael Avenatti, attorney for Cathriona's estate, tells us Carrey's new claim is "complete and utter bulls**t. When the truth comes out, Mr. Carrey and certain of his advisers are going to be criminally prosecuted for their conduct in this case. They better buckle up." ||||| Husband of Jim Carrey's Girlfriend Sues for Wrongful Death After Her Suicide 
 
 Jim Carrey Speaks Out for First Time After Autopsy Report on Cathriona White's Suicide 
 
 The estranged husband of Jim Carrey 's late girlfriend, Cathriona White , is suing the actor, claiming that he is responsible for White's fatal overdose last year, PEOPLE confirms. Mark Burton filed a wrongful death suit against Carrey in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Monday, alleging that the 54-year-old actor used his "immense wealth and celebrity status" to illegally obtain the drugs that killed 30-year-old White, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE.Burton, who was married to White at the time of her death, alleges that Carrey obtained the drugs illegally under the false name "Arthur King" and gave them to White even though he knew the she was prone to depression and suicide. He also alleges Carrey attempted to cover up his involvement after her death.In a statement to PEOPLE, Burton's lawyer Michael Avenatti said he and Burton are asking for the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office to launch an investigation into White's death. "We look forward to the facts and evidence relating to Mr. Carrey's conduct and role in the death of Ms. White coming to light," Avenatti said.Carrey has responded to the suit in a statement obtained by PEOPLE: "What a terrible shame. It would be easy for me to get in a back room with this man's lawyer and make this go away, but there are some moments in life when you have to stand up and defend your honor against the evil in this world. I will not tolerate this heartless attempt to exploit me or the woman I loved. Cat's troubles were born long before I met her and sadly her tragic end was beyond anyone's control. I really hope that some day soon people will stop trying to profit from this and let her rest in peace."The filing notes that a coroner determined that White had overdosed on Ambien, Propranolol and Percocet – none of which had been prescribed to the 30-year-old.Just one month after White's death, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said that there were four prescription medications found near White's body when she was pronounced dead in her Los Angeles home. He said the Ambien, Percocet, Propranolol and Zofran were not in the her name. He explained that while three were under one name, a fourth was under another name.The toxicology report notes that when police checked White's phone, they found texts from Carrey asking if she "knew where his painkillers went from under his sink." He also mentioned that a bottle of prescription anti-inflammatories was missing. In his complaint, Burton claims Carrey sent these "bogus" texts to "cover-up his conduct and complicity in her death."The complaint asks, "If Carrey legitimately believed White had taken the drugs from him and she had subsequently gone missing for days with no contact, then why would Carrey not immediately request law enforcement to check on her well-being after she did not return his text?"The filing also claims that Carrey had an "obsession with controlling and manipulating White" and "had the ability to monitor surveillance cameras on a home White often stayed at and was able, by design, to view the residence remotely to keep track of White's comings and goings."Burton also accuses Carrey's physician of misconduct, claiming in the filing that the two "were engaged in a conspiracy to wrongfully and illegally provide medications to Carrey under false names."Furthermore, the documents claim that Carrey reneged on his offer to pay for White's funeral. Page Six first reported the news.White overdosed on prescription pills in September 2015 and was found with a note addressed to Carrey, her on-again-off-again boyfriend, according to her autopsy report.In the letter, White apologized to Carrey, writing, "I'm sorry you felt I wasn't there for you. I tried to give you my best part." She added, "Please forgive me. I'm just not for this world," she added.Carrey and White had split a week before her death.Little is known about White's marriage to Burton – including the timeline of when they were officially together – and source told PEOPLE that they were separated at the time of her death, adding: "She was going to start divorce proceedings in December." News of her marriage came as a surprise to many, and sources in her hometown of Cappawhite, Ireland, told PEOPLE that few people, including some relatives, were even aware she had a husband.With the one-year anniversary of White's death approaching, a source told PEOPLE that Carrey is slowly moving on with his life."He's doing good now but he's still very much affected by her death," the source said of the star, adding that White's suicide "was extremely difficult for Jim.""There was a lot of sadness and many 'what if' questions," the source said. "It hit him very hard. He went through a long grieving period." ||||| CLOSE The suit claims that Jim Carrey's ex-girlfriend, who committed suicide last September, was allegedly receiving prescription drugs from Carrey, who used the fake name Arthur King to obtain the illicit drugs.

 Jim Carrey responded late Monday to a wrongful death lawsuit and accusations from his late girlfriend's husband of illegally obtaining and giving her the powerful painkillers she used to kill herself in September 2015. 
 
 The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles by Mark Burton, an Oregon man who was married to Cathriona White, 30, at the time of her death, when she had been in a relationship with Carrey. Burton's suit attempts to strip Carrey of his "grieving good guy" image and paints him as reckless and deceitful before and after White's death. 
 
 The Irish-born makeup artist was found dead in a Sherman Oaks, Calif., home on Sept. 28, 2015; the Los Angeles County coroner's office later ruled White took her own life by overdosing on prescription drugs, including Ambien, Propranolol and Percocet (oxycodone). 
 
 "After obtaining these drugs illegally and under a bogus name ('Arthur King'), Mr. Carrey proceeded to provide the prescription drugs to ... Cathriona White," despite knowing that White was "prone to depression and had previously attempted to take her own life," the lawsuit states. "The result that followed was predictable and foreseeable." 
 
 Afterward, Burton's lawsuit says, Carrey tried to "conceal and obfuscate his involvement and culpability in Ms. White's untimely and tragic death." 
 
 The lawsuit does not specify how much money Burton is seeking but it does demand a jury trial. 
 
 Carrey responded late Monday. “What a terrible shame. It would be easy for me to get in a back room with this man’s lawyer and make this go away, but there are some moments in life when you have to stand up and defend your honor against the evil in this world," said the actor, in a statement emailed to USA TODAY by his publicist. 
 
 Carrey's statement continued: "I will not tolerate this heartless attempt to exploit me or the woman I loved. Cat’s troubles were born long before I met her and sadly her tragic end was beyond anyone’s control. I really hope that some day soon people will stop trying to profit from this and let her rest in peace.”

 Among the allegations in the lawsuit: 
 
 Carrey had surveillance cameras on the home where White stayed and was able to remotely keep track of her comings and goings. Before she was discovered, Carrey's assistant checked the camera and noticed White had not moved from the home for more than 24 hours. "After learning of this fact, neither Carrey nor his assistant alerted authorities," the suit says. 
 
 The drugs found in White's body all came from three pill bottles found near her body and bearing the name "Arthur King." The suit says Carrey got the drugs from a doctor who conspired with Carrey to illegally prescribe them to him under the false name of Arthur King. 
 
 "Carrey wrongfully and illegally obtained these drugs in clear violation of California law," the suit says. 
 
 Burton's suit says Carrey sent a bogus text message to White on Sept. 27, when she was already dead, pretending he had misplaced the drugs and "insinuating White may have taken them from Carrey without his knowledge, when in reality Carrey knew full well that he had voluntarily and illegally provided the fraudulently obtained and prescribed drugs to White days prior," the lawsuit says. 
 
 Carrey's offer to pay for White's funeral in Ireland was merely an effort to paint him as a "grieving good guy" as opposed to someone closely involved in her death, according to the suit. 
 
 But Burton's suit says Carrey never paid anything of the funeral expenses. "Instead, Carrey reneged on his promise after learning that White had left a minimal amount of money to her family," the suit says. "Not surprisingly, he never informed the media of his broken promise and decision to stiff the family."

– Jim Carrey will answer questions about former girlfriend Cathriona White’s 2015 death by suicide under oath when he's deposed in a wrongful death lawsuit next week, People reports. White's mother (who, Carrey's lawyer tells Page Six, "didn't know" her daughter for 14 years) and estranged husband filed the lawsuit against Carrey, and in a statement, their lawyer says the actor will be forced to answer questions including "why he provided illegal drugs to Ms. White, why he gave Ms. White multiple STDs and then lied about it, and why he has engaged in a public charade of innocence crafted by his handlers." The suit alleges Carrey, using a fake name, obtained the prescription drugs White ultimately used to kill herself and gave them to her knowing she had a history of depression and suicide attempts. Carrey has repeatedly denied the accusations, and his lawyer says "there’s nothing in his deposition that is going to change the truth." The lawsuit also accuses Carrey of giving White three STDs, and claims that's why she committed suicide. In new legal documents filed as part of the case, Carrey claims White already had herpes before they met, but altered a friend's clean medical records to make it look like she didn't have the disease. She then, Carrey's documents claim, tried to extort him by showing him the "clean" records and later records, from after they started sleeping together, showing she had contracted herpes, TMZ reports. The documents say Carrey can prove his claim thanks to text messages White sent the friend asking for the medical records. TMZ earlier reported that Carrey also claims White tried to use vaginal bumps from a bad wax job as evidence of herpes in her extortion attempt.
