Jasveen Sangha, widely known as the “Ketamine Queen of Los Angeles,” stands accused of playing a central role in the drug distribution network linked to the death of actor Matthew Perry. Sangha, 41, has been charged with multiple counts, including conspiracy to distribute ketamine, maintaining drug-involved premises, and possession with intent to distribute controlled substances like methamphetamine and ketamine. Her arrest on August 15, 2024, followed a federal investigation into Perry’s death, which occurred on October 28, 2023, due to an accidental overdose of ketamine.

Sangha’s involvement in the drug trade dates back to at least 2019, when she allegedly sold ketamine to a man named Cody McLaury, who died shortly after taking the drug. Despite being aware of the risks associated with ketamine, Sangha continued her illegal activities, distributing the powerful sedative to Perry and others. Prosecutors allege that Sangha supplied 27 ketamine shots to Perry in the five days leading up to his death, with three of those injections directly leading to his fatal overdose.
Operating from her North Hollywood home, Sangha allegedly maintained a “stash house” where she stored, packaged, and distributed various narcotics. During a raid on her residence in March 2024, authorities found significant quantities of illegal substances, including ketamine, methamphetamine, Xanax, psilocybin mushrooms, and cocaine. Additionally, tools commonly associated with drug trafficking, such as money counters and scales, were also discovered.

Sangha’s luxurious lifestyle, funded by her drug dealings, included frequent trips to exotic locations such as Mexico, Japan, and France, as well as driving high-end vehicles like a BMW. Despite her illegal activities, Sangha maintained an active social life, attending parties, salons, and shopping sprees even in the days leading up to her arrest. Her friends noted that she appeared “carefree” and even more social in the months before her detention.
The case against Sangha also includes allegations that she used encrypted messaging apps to coordinate drug deals with other defendants, including Erik Fleming, who served as an intermediary between Sangha and Perry’s assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa. Iwamasa, along with other co-defendants, has been charged in connection with Perry’s death and faces significant prison time if convicted.
Sangha has pleaded not guilty to all charges, but the judge has denied her bail, citing her financial means and dual citizenship as factors that make her a flight risk. If convicted, Sangha could face life imprisonment, highlighting the serious nature of the charges against her.
This case has garnered significant media attention due to the involvement of high-profile individuals and the tragic death of Matthew Perry. The investigation continues as authorities seek justice for those affected by Sangha’s alleged actions.
