‘Ketamine Queen’ Jasveen Sangha Pleads Guilty in Connection to Matthew Perry’s Death

Jasveen Sangha, also known as the Ketamine Queen, has officially pleaded guilty to five federal charges in connection to the death of Matthew Perry.

Perry was found dead in the hot tub of his Pacific Palisades home in October 2023. Following an autopsy, his cause of death was listed as “acute effects of ketamine.”

Sangha, 42, was arrested in connection to the actor’s death in August 2024 but maintained her innocence. Last month, she struck a plea deal with prosecutors that would see her pleading guilty to one count of maintaining a drug-involved premises, three counts of distribution of ketamine, and one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death.

Prosecutors agreed to drop three other charges in exchange for her guilty plea. The drug dealer – who reportedly sold the Friends actor 51 vials of ketamine in the month leading up to his death – faces up to 65 years in prison.

Sangha is the last of five to plead guilty to crimes connected to Perry’s overdose.

Dr. Mark Chavez, Dr. Salvador Plasencia, Perry’s live-in personal assistant Kenneth Iwamasa and filmmaker Erik Fleming previously pleaded guilty for their roles in the actor’s death.

All five suspects are currently awaiting sentencing, with Sangha’s hearing scheduled for December 10.
