Matthew Perry's 'Ketamine Queen' Pleads Guilty! Shocking Details Revealed!
Jasveen Sangha, dubbed the 'Ketamine Queen' in connection with the death of Friends star Matthew Perry, has pleaded guilty to five federal criminal charges related to supplying him with the drug that led to his death. This plea deal avoids a trial scheduled for September and marks a significant development in the investigation surrounding Perry's passing in 2023.
Sangha, a 42-year-old with dual U.K. and U.S. citizenship, admitted guilt to three counts of distribution of ketamine, one count of maintaining a drug-involved premises, and one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury. She is the fifth person involved in the case to sign a plea deal, according to Associated Press.
"She’s taking responsibility for her actions," her lawyer, Mark Geragos, stated.
Matthew Perry died at his Los Angeles home in 2023 at the age of 54. An autopsy determined that the acute effects of ketamine were the cause of death. This plea from Sangha concludes the broad investigation that followed his death.
While Sangha has admitted her guilt, none of the defendants involved in the case have been sentenced yet. The legal proceedings continue to unfold, bringing a measure of closure to this tragic event that shocked the world.
