A personal assistant who injected Friends star Matthew Perry with a fatal dose of the hallucinogenic drug ketamine has been sentenced to three years and five months in federal prison, bringing to a close the prosecution of five people who admitted to playing roles in the actor's death.
Judge Sherilyn Garnett delivered the 41-month sentence for Kenneth Iwamasa, the person who found Perry floating face down and lifeless in a hot tub at his Los Angeles home in October 2023.
Federal prosecutors said Iwamasa injected Perry with ketamine at the actor's request before leaving the residence to run errands.
