Matthew Perry's doctor agrees to plead guilty to distributing ketamine to actor before his death
Briefly

Dr. Salvador Plasencia, known as Dr. P., has agreed to plead guilty to charges relating to the distribution of ketamine to Matthew Perry, who died from its acute effects. The charges stem from an investigation into Perry's death, which included accusations against Plasencia of falsifying records. Three other individuals are also implicated in the case, including Perry's personal assistant and two doctors. Perry had openly struggled with substance abuse and sought treatment before becoming addicted to ketamine, eventually seeking it from unauthorized sources.
