A California doctor who supplied ketamine to Matthew Perry has been jailed for 30 months, as he becomes the first person to receive prison time in the actor’s overdose death.
Dr. Salvador Plasencia, who operated an urgent-care clinic outside Los Angeles, pleaded guilty in federal court in July to four felony counts of illegal distribution of the prescription anaesthetic. He could have faced up to 40 years in prison had he been convicted at trial.
