Doctor Sentenced for Ketamine Sales to Matthew Perry
Update: 2025-12-04
Description
Doctor Salvador Plasencia, who supplied ketamine to Matthew Perry, was sentenced to two and a half years in prison for distributing the drug. Despite Perrys death from acute ketamine effects, Plasencia pleaded guilty to four counts. The judge emphasized his violation of the Hippocratic oath, as Perrys mother and stepfather expressed their grief and anger in a victim impact letter. Prosecutors sought a three-year sentence, highlighting Plasencias exploitation of Perrys addiction and his derogatory text about the actor. This case is part of a larger investigation into Perrys death, with sentencings for other individuals involved scheduled for the coming weeks.
