‘Ketamine Queen’ Pleads Guilty in Matthew Perry Overdose Death Case

News summary

Jasveen Sangha, known as the 'Ketamine Queen,' pleaded guilty to five federal charges related to supplying the ketamine that caused the death of Friends star Matthew Perry in October 2023. She admitted to maintaining a drug-involved premises, distributing ketamine multiple times, and distributing ketamine resulting in Perry's death, potentially facing up to 65 years in prison. Sangha was the last of five defendants charged in the case to plead guilty, with co-defendants including Perry’s personal assistant, a friend, and two doctors. Prosecutors revealed that Perry legally used ketamine for depression but sought additional amounts from Sangha through an intermediary, Erik Fleming, shortly before his fatal overdose. Sangha, who flaunted a lavish lifestyle on social media and catered to high-end clients, attempted to erase incriminating messages after Perry's death. Sentencing is scheduled for December 10, and prosecutors have indicated they will seek less than the maximum penalty.
