'Ketamine Queen' dealer to plead guilty

LOS ANGELES — A dealer dubbed the "Ketamine Queen" has agreed to plead guilty to supplying the drugs that killed Friends (1994 to 2004) actor Matthew Perry, the United States Department of Justice said on Aug. 18. Jasveen Sangha, 42, will admit several charges, including one of distribution of ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury in relation to the late star.

A dual citizen of the United States and Britain, she is expected to formally enter her pleas in the coming weeks. She has been in federal custody since August 2024.

Sangha will become the fifth person to admit playing a part in the death of the beloved actor, who had openly struggled for decades with substance addiction.
