The investigation into the death of actor Matthew Perry has led to significant legal developments, with a doctor charged in connection with the case expected to plead guilty in a federal court in Los Angeles after a plea deal. The doctor is accused of conspiring to distribute ketamine, a surgical anesthetic. This comes amid revelations about Perry's interactions with medical professionals and suppliers, including being mocked by a doctor and dealer, and having ketamine administered up to eight times a day. Additionally, Jasveen Sangha, known as the 'Ketamine Queen,' is accused of supplying the fatal dose to Perry's assistant. The case has also highlighted issues within Hollywood's ketamine supply network, with Perry's alleged 'street dealer' previously managing a high-end rehab center where another client died.
