Jasveen Sangha is scheduled to change her not guilty plea and plead guilty to five federal charges for her role in Matthew Perry's overdose death. The pleas include maintaining a drug-involved premises, three counts of distributing ketamine, and one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death. Prosecutors described Sangha as a prolific dealer known as the "Ketamine Queen." Prosecutors agreed to drop three other ketamine counts and one unrelated methamphetamine count. Sangha could receive up to 45 years in prison, though prosecutors said they will seek less and the judge is not bound by the plea agreement. Sentencing will be scheduled after the guilty plea.
LOS ANGELES -- A woman who has come to be known as the "Ketamine Queen" is set to plead guilty Wednesday to selling Matthew Perry the drug that killed him. Jasveen Sangha is scheduled to change her previous not guilty plea at a federal court in Los Angeles and would become the fifth and final defendant charged in the overdose death of the "Friends" star to plead guilty after a deal with prosecutors.
Prosecutors had cast Sangha, a 42-year-old citizen of the U.S. and the U.K., as a prolific drug dealer who was known to her customers as the "Ketamine Queen," using the term often in press releases and court documents. Her guilty pleas are set to include one count of maintaining a drug-involved premises, three counts of distribution of ketamine, and one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death.
