BREAKING: Doctors, personal assistant, drug dealer named ‘Ketamine Queen’ arrested in connection to death of Matthew Perry

Law enforcement sources told the outlet that multiple agencies have executed search warrants and have seized phones, laptops, and other devices to determine who supplied Perry with the ketamine that led to his death in October 2023. Perry lost consciousness in his hot tub and drowned at his Pacific Palisades home in Los Angeles. The Drug Enforcement Administration and LAPD have conducted a criminal investigation for months.

Kenneth Iwamasa, Perry's assistant, allegedly administered over 20 shots of ketamine to the actor in the last four days he was alive, and apparently knew that Perry was "spiraling out of control." Jasveen Sangha, the "Ketamine Queen," sold the fatal dose to Perry. When her home was searched, ketamine and other drug paraphernalia was discovered. The syringe was provided to Perry by doctor Salvador Plasencia, who had given ketamine to Perry as well as his assistant in other instances, according to an indictment reviewed by NBC News.

Authorities said that the 5 defendants all knew Perry had struggled with addiction in the past, but wanted to make money off of him despite the obvious concern. The actor had been getting ketamine infusion therapy for mental health reasons the last week and a half before his death, according to TMZ.

Sources that spoke to TMZ said that texts uncovered in warrants showed messages about Perry and the ketamine he wanted.

The outlet reported that the police were clearly going after those doctors and dealer who had gotten him the illegal ketamine that led to his death.
