Ketamine Queen Jasveen Sangha Jailed For Role In Matthew Perry's Death

FILMFARE 6 days ago

Jasveen Sangha, an Indian-origin drug dealer infamously known as the 'Ketamine Queen,' has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for her role in the death of Matthew Perry.

The sentencing, delivered in Los Angeles, marks a significant development in the high-profile case surrounding the actor’s 2023 overdose.

According to reports, Sangha pleaded guilty to multiple drug-related charges, including supplying the ketamine that ultimately led to Perry’s death. Prosecutors revealed that she operated a large-scale drug distribution network from her North Hollywood residence, catering to high-profile clients and continuing her activities even after being aware of the risks involved.

The case also exposed a wider network of individuals connected to Perry’s drug access, including doctors and intermediaries. However, Sangha was identified as the primary supplier of the fatal dose, making her central to the investigation.

During court proceedings, Sangha reportedly expressed remorse, admitting that her actions had devastating consequences. Despite this, prosecutors described her conduct as “callous,” highlighting that she continued dealing drugs even after learning about fatal overdoses linked to her supply.

Perry, best known for his role as Chandler Bing inFriends, had long struggled with substance abuse and was undergoing medically supervised treatment before turning to illegal sources. His death at the age of 54 sent shockwaves across the entertainment industry, prompting a deeper conversation around addiction, accountability, and access to controlled substances.

Sangha was one of five people charged in connection with the case, with others—including medical professionals and Perry’s assistant—also facing legal consequences. Her 15-year sentence is among the most severe in the case, reflecting the gravity of her role.

As the case draws global attention, it has reignited discussions around the darker side of celebrity culture, substance abuse, and the systems that enable it. The verdict not only brings a measure of closure to Perry’s family but also serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of illegal drug distribution.
