Perry Ketamine Case Ends with Assistant's 3.5-Year Sentence

Matthew Perry’s live-in assistant Ken Iwamasa was sentenced to nearly 3.5 years in federal prison and fined $10,000 for injecting the Friends star with three ketamine doses that contributed to his October 2023 death; the judge said his conduct was reckless but found no proof of malicious intent, noting Iwamasa’s close relationship with Perry as well as being the last person Perry spoke to. This marks the final sentencing in the case linked to Perry’s death, which also saw Ketamine Queen Jasveen Sangha receive a 15-year prison term in 2025 along with other doctors and a treatment-center director.
