Dr. Mark Chavez has pleaded guilty in federal court in California regarding his involvement in the death of 'Friends' star Matthew Perry, agreeing to cooperate in a broader investigation.
Chavez admitted to obtaining ketamine illegally from his clinic and a wholesale distributor. He could face up to 10 years in prison but may receive a lesser sentence due to his plea agreement.
Chavez's lawyer indicated his client is 'incredibly remorseful' and wants to make amends for his role in the aftermath of Perry's overdose.
The investigation continues to seek out two main suspects: Dr. Salvador Plasencia, accused of illegally prescribing ketamine to Perry, and dealer Jasveen Sangha, accused of selling the fatal dose.
