Dr. Salvador Plasecia declared the fault of four accusations relating to the illegal distribution of Cetamina, a substance that led to the death of the actor Matthew Perry, known for having played Chandler Bing in the series of friends. The confession was revealed by the US authorities and published on Monday (16), underlining that the professional can be sentenced to up to 40 years of prison if his admission of guilt is formally accepted.




According to the United States Department of Justice, the doctor not only distributed the drug jars to the actor, but also commissioned Perry Kenneth Iwamasa’s personal assistant to apply the content. In addition, the plastic would also have received ampoules from the doctor Mark Chavez, already involved in the event and could be sentenced to a maximum of 10 years in prison.

Relative, dependence and medical exploration

Matthew Perry, who died at the age of 54, used ketamine under prescription as part of a depression treatment. However, in 2023, he consumed the substance again in an uncontrolled way. According to the researchers, this behavior made it vulnerable to the action of “unscrupulous doctors”.

The accusation revealed that the plastic is personally gone to the artist’s residence to apply the substance or leave it with the assistant. In total, 20 vials were delivered in a two -week break in the autumn of the northern hemisphere.

The market value of these bottles was around $ 12, but they were sold in Perry up to $ 2,000 each.

Tragic outcome and reaction from the authorities

Matthew Perry’s body was found on October 28, 2023, inside a whirlpool in his home in Los Angeles. The report of the Forensic Medical Institute confirmed the accidental overdoing of Cetamine as a cause of death.

An official report stressed that “the substance present in his body at the time of death was not compatible with regular infusion therapies”.

The case generated the confusion and triggered a large criminal investigation. In total, five people have been offending. In addition to Plase, Chavez and Iwamasa was also accused Jasveen Sangha, known in Hollywood circles as the “Queen of Cetamine”. He would have provided the fatal dose to the actor and could face life sentence. So far, Sangha has declared innocent.

History of health and fight against addiction

Famous for his acid humor on television, Perry has lived a silent battle against chemical dependence for decades. In his autobiography published in 2022, the actor revealed that he had been admitted 65 times in rehabilitation clinics and spent about $ 9 million in treatments. He also reported having faced serious medical complications, such as the seven -hour colon surgery in 2018.

In friends, lovers and the great terrible thing, Perry said: “I have been sober since 2001, with the exception of about sixty or seventy small slides”. In one of his latest public appearances, he confessed to suffering from intense anxiety during the Sitcom recordings.

As stated in the documentary Matthew Perry: Hollywood tragedy, the actor would have received 27 doses of ketamine only in the three days before his death.
