Recent sentencing updates have involved several individuals tied to the ketamine distribution network connected to Perry’s death. Notably, a defendant identified in coverage as the “Ketamine Queen” received a lengthy prison term, and others in the network have also been sentenced in the months surrounding Perry’s death investigation.

Specifically, one of the latest notable rulings was the sentencing of Jasveen Sangha to 15 years in federal prison for ketamine distribution charges tied to the Perry case. Prosecutors had sought a substantial sentence given the involvement of ketamine that led to or contributed to the death. This marks a continuation of broader penalties against multiple defendants in the network. [Sources: entertainment and national news outlets reporting on Sangha’s sentence and related charges]

Additional sentencing actions have occurred for other individuals connected to the investigation, including doctors and assistants who pleaded guilty to related charges such as distributing ketamine to Perry shortly before his death. These sentences have varied, ranging from shorter terms like months of home detention to multi-year prison sentences depending on the specific charges and plea agreements.
