The woman known as the “Ketamine Queen,” Jasveen Sangha, is set to be sentenced in the Matthew Perry case after pleading guilty to federal charges tied to the ketamine that killed him. Prosecutors are asking for 15 years in prison, saying she supplied Perry with the lethal dose just days before his death in October 2023.

What she admitted

Sangha pleaded guilty last September to maintaining a drug-involved premises, three counts of ketamine distribution, and one count of distributing ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury. She is the only defendant in the case whose plea agreement included responsibility for Perry’s death.

Why the sentence matters

Perry was found dead in the pool at his Los Angeles home, and the medical examiner ruled his death an accidental ketamine overdose. His family is expected to speak at the sentencing, and they have reportedly urged the judge to impose the harshest possible punishment.

Case context

Sangha has been in federal custody since her arrest in 2024, and she faces decades in prison depending on the judge’s decision. The sentencing is part of a broader criminal case that has already led to guilty pleas from other people connected to Perry’s death
