Doctor jailed for supplying ketamine to 'Friends' star Matthew Perry

A doctor who supplied "Friends" star Matthew Perry with ketamine in the months before he fatally overdosed was jailed in California on Wednesday.

Salvador Plasencia, 44, is the first of five people to face justice over Perry's 2023 death in the hot tub of his Los Angeles home. Plasencia was ordered to serve 30 months in prison for supplying the drug to the actor who had well documented struggles with addiction at grossly inflated prices. The four other people who have also admitted their part in supplying drugs to the actor will be sentenced over the coming months.
