US Edition‘Ketamine Queen’ accused of selling fatal dose to Matthew Perry agrees to plead guilty
Jasveen Sangha pleaded guilty to five federal charges including distribution of ketamine causing death, facing up to 45 years in prison, ending the final trial in Matthew Perry's overdose case.
- On October 28, 2023, Matthew Perry was found dead in the jacuzzi of his Los Angeles home at age 54.
- Perry's death resulted from the acute effects of ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic with hallucinogenic effects, which he obtained from multiple suppliers including Jasveen Sangha.
- Jasveen Sangha, known as the 'Ketamine Queen,' was indicted after her home was raided in March 2024, and she was charged with multiple counts including distribution of ketamine causing death.
- Jasveen Sangha will enter a guilty plea on five federal charges, including distribution of ketamine causing death, thereby avoiding a trial that had been scheduled for August and facing a potential sentence of up to 45 years in prison.
- Perry had publicly acknowledged long-term substance abuse dating back to his peak fame on 'Friends,' and officials say suppliers exploited his addiction, which contributed to his fatal overdose.
