Overview
- Jasveen Sangha will plead to five federal counts: maintaining a drug-involved premises, three counts of ketamine distribution, and distribution of ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury, with a formal change-of-plea hearing to come.
- Prosecutors say she faces up to 45 years in prison under the statutes, with sentencing to be set after the plea is entered.
- Court filings state Perry bought 25 vials of ketamine from Sangha for $6,000 in cash four days before he died, and prosecutors say that purchase included the doses that killed him.
- In the agreement, Sangha admits selling ketamine to Cody McLaury in 2019 hours before his fatal overdose, and prosecutors will seek to drop several other counts, including a methamphetamine charge unrelated to Perry.
- All four co-defendants—assistant Kenneth Iwamasa, doctors Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez, and friend Erik Fleming—previously pleaded guilty in the case, and none of the five has been sentenced.
