Overview
- Jasveen Sangha agreed in a signed court filing to plead guilty to five federal counts, including distributing ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury.
- The plea caps a yearlong probe in which Dr. Salvador Plasencia, Dr. Mark Chavez, assistant Kenneth Iwamasa and intermediary Erik Fleming already entered guilty pleas; no sentences have been imposed.
- Prosecutors say Perry purchased 25 vials for $6,000 in cash from Sangha four days before he was found dead, and the medical examiner ruled the cause as acute effects of ketamine.
- Sangha faces a potential sentence widely reported as up to 45 years in federal prison, with prosecutors indicating they will seek less than the statutory maximum.
- DEA agents raided her North Hollywood home in March 2024 and seized large quantities of ketamine and other drugs, and court records say she urged an associate to delete messages the day Perry died.
