Hollywood’s Dark Secret: Ketamine Queen Confesses

Los Angeles is no stranger to scandal, but the latest bombshell hits harder than a Santa Ana wind. Jasveen Sangha, a 42-year-old American-British dual national known in underground circles as the Ketamine Queen, has pleaded guilty to charges tied to the heartbreaking overdose death of Matthew Perry, the iconic star we all loved as Chandler on 'Friends.' This isn’t just another Tinseltown tale - it’s a tragic wake-up call about the dangers lurking behind the glitz and glam.

The plea went down on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, in US District Court right here in the heart of LA. Sangha owned up to distributing the ketamine that led to Perry’s untimely passing on October 28, 2023, when he was found lifeless in a jacuzzi at his LA home. It’s the kind of story that could be ripped from a noir script, but for Perry’s fans across SoCal and beyond, it’s all too real.

A Drug Empire in the City of Angels

Federal prosecutors didn’t hold back, painting Sangha’s North Hollywood residence as a full-on 'drug-selling emporium.' When authorities raided her spot - think a stash house straight out of a gritty LA crime flick - they uncovered dozens of vials of ketamine alongside other controlled substances. This wasn’t a small-time operation; Sangha had been allegedly supplying high-end clients and celebs since at least 2019.

'This case exposes the deadly risks of Hollywood’s underground drug networks - no red carpet can cover up the tragedy of lives lost,' said a source close to the investigation.

She admitted to five charges, including distributing ketamine resulting in death or bodily injury, down from an initial nine counts. Sangha’s not the only one in hot water - she’s one of five people, including two doctors and Perry’s live-in assistant, accused of funneling the drug to the actor. And Perry wasn’t her only victim; she also copped to selling ketamine to Cody McLaury, who died just hours after buying from her in August 2019.

The High Life and Deadly Risks

For those not in the know, ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic with hallucinogenic effects - legit under medical supervision, but a dangerous game when misused on the streets of LA. Sangha’s social media flexed a lifestyle dripping with extravagance, from international vacays to strutting her stuff at the Golden Globes and Oscars. It’s the kind of Malibu-style drama that seems glamorous until you see the cost.

Now, Sangha faces up to 65 years in federal prison, with her sentencing hearing set for December 10, 2025. This case isn’t just about one woman or one star - it’s peeling back the curtain on a broader ketamine distribution network weaving through Hollywood’s elite. From the Hollywood Hills to the Valley, the exploitation and risks tied to this drug are hitting too close to home.

As LA mourns Matthew Perry, this story serves as a stark reminder: behind the flashing lights and palm-lined streets, there’s a shadow side to the City of Angels. Will this be the catalyst for change, or just another chapter in Hollywood’s long history of scandal? Only time will tell.
