A California doctor who supplied ketamine to Friends star Matthew Perry has been sentenced to 30 months in federal prison - becoming the first person to receive a sentence in the actor's overdose death.
Dr Salvador Plasencia was one of five charged in a multiyear federal investigation that examined how Perry acquired the dissociative anaesthetic through an underground drug network in Hollywood.
Perry, 54, was found dead at his Los Angeles home in 2023 after years of struggling with depression and addiction.
The actor's family asked the judge for a lengthy sentence, calling Plasencia the "most culpable", and detailing their struggle to understand why he repeatedly supplied Perry with drugs
