abcnews.comI don’t have live access to new updates right now. Here’s what is publicly reported recently about Matthew Perry’s death case:
-
A number of defendants connected to the ketamine distribution linked to Perry’s death have received prison sentences, with the latest reports noting sentences ranging from several years to over a decade for different individuals involved in the drug network. For example, filings and coverage in May 2026 highlight a defendant receiving a 24-month federal sentence plus three years of supervised release, alongside other co-defendants who have already been sentenced to longer terms. These developments indicate multiple, separate sentencing events tied to the same case timeline. [Source coverage around May 12–21, 2026 reports include The Blast, Yahoo News UK, ABC News, CBS News, and TMZ.]

In April 2026, another high-profile sentencing in the same matter involved Jasveen (often referred to as the “ketamine queen”) Sangha, who received a 15-year prison term after pleading guilty to ketamine distribution counts including one tied to Perry’s death. This is part of a sequence of sentences issued to individuals implicated in the drug supply chain connected to the incident. [ABC News, TMZ, and related outlets reporting early April 2026 sentencing.]

Earlier in the timeline, December 2025 through early 2026 saw sentences for other participants, including a doctor who pleaded guilty to distributing ketamine to Perry in the weeks leading up to his death, receiving a 30-month (2.5 years) prison term, and other related sentences, including home detention or shorter prison terms for different defendants. [ABC News, CBS News, and ABC7 coverage from late 2024 through 2025.]
