Salvador Plascencia, one of the doctors who administered ketamine to Matthew Perry, was sentenced to two and a half years in prison

Dr. Salvador Plascencia was sentenced Wednesday to two and a half years in prison for supplying actor Matthew Perry with large amounts of ketamine. The famous actor from the series Friends died in October 2023 as a result of an overdose of this drug.

Plasencia, known as Dr. B, had already admitted his participation in Perry’s death. Last June, he admitted in federal court to his responsibility for four serious crimes related to the illegal distribution of a drug.
