In the case of the death of Friends star Matthew Perry, the last of the defendants has agreed to a plea bargain.
Jaswin Sangha, 42, known as the “queen of ketamine,” pleaded guilty to five charges. These include maintaining premises for the distribution of drugs and several episodes of illegal sale of ketamine. One of the charges directly relates to the distribution of a substance that caused death or serious harm to health, according to Variety.
According to investigators, Sangha and her accomplice, Eric Fleming, sold 51 vials of ketamine to actor Kenneth Iwamasa’s assistant. It was Iwamasa who injected Perry with the drug, after which the actor died. The woman then tried to cover her tracks by instructing Fleming to delete their correspondence. During a search of her home in March 2024, 79 vials of ketamine, MDMA, counterfeit Xanax, and a money counting device were found.
Jaswin Sangha could spend at least 11 years behind bars, with a maximum sentence of 45 years. She will be sentenced in the coming months.
The woman was the last of five defendants to plead guilty. Earlier, Perry’s doctors, Salvador Placentia and Mark Chavez, as well as Eric Fleming and Kenneth Iwamasa, did the same.
