Court documents obtained by Us Weekly suggest that Sangha might have referred to Perry as “Chandler,” his iconic TV character while discussing the supply of ketamine to him.
These revelations came to light through a plea deal involving Erik Fleming. The plea agreement outlines that on or around October 12, 2023, Sangha used the name of a “well-known character” portrayed by Perry during a conversation about providing the actor with ketamine. Although the specific name was not mentioned in the plea, the connection to Matthew Perry’s portrayal of Chandler Bing in ‘Friends’ seems evident.Erik Fleming, who pleaded guilty to charges related to the conspiracy and distribution of ketamine leading to Perry’s death, has become a key figure in the investigation. Sangha, on the other hand, has pleaded not guilty to her charges and remains in custody after being denied bail last week.
Matthew Perry, who was 54 years old at the time of his passing in October 2023, was found to have died from the “acute effects of ketamine,” according to a toxicology report released in December 2023. Other contributing factors included coronary artery disease, the presence of buprenorphine, and drowning. Initially ruled as an accidental death, the investigation has since taken a darker turn, with multiple individuals now facing serious charges.
Earlier this month, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California disclosed that five people have been formally charged in relation to Matthew Perry’s death. Among those arrested are Erik Fleming, Perry’s former assistant Kenneth Iwamasa, Jasveen Sangha, Dr. Salvador Plasencia, and Dr. Mark Chavez. Court documents reveal that Fleming allegedly sent a message to Sangha via the Signal app two days after Perry’s passing, stating he was “90 percent sure everyone is protected” and referring to Iwamasa as the “enabler.”
The charges against Sangha are extensive. In addition to conspiracy to distribute ketamine, she faces charges of maintaining a drug-related establishment, possession of methamphetamine with intent to supply, possession of ketamine with intent to distribute, and multiple counts of ketamine distribution. Despite these charges, Sangha has pleaded not guilty.
Dr. Mark Chavez, who has agreed to enter a guilty plea, and Dr. Salvador Plasencia, who has also pleaded not guilty, are both accused of conspiring with Sangha to distribute ketamine. Meanwhile, Iwamasa has admitted to regularly injecting Perry with ketamine, including on the day of his death, despite lacking the necessary medical qualifications. Earlier this month, Iwamasa entered a guilty plea to one charge of conspiracy to distribute ketamine causing death.
As the investigation into Matthew Perry’s tragic death continues, the involvement of these individuals paints a grim picture of the circumstances surrounding the beloved actor’s final days. With ongoing legal proceedings, more details are likely to emerge, further unraveling the complexities of this heartbreaking case.
