- Erik Fleming, a licensed drug addiction counselor, was sentenced to two years in federal prison for supplying the ketamine that led to actor Matthew Perry's death.
- Fleming, 56, received the sentence in a Los Angeles federal court and will also face three years of probation.
- He pleaded guilty to one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death and was the first defendant to cooperate with investigators, identifying 'The Ketamine Queen,' Jasveen Sangha.
- Prosecutors acknowledged Fleming's cooperation but argued it was motivated by self-preservation, while his defense highlighted his lack of a criminal record and remorse.
- Fleming delivered 25 vials of ketamine for $6,000 just four days before Perry's October 2023 death, with a medical examiner concluding Perry died from the acute effects of the drug.
