A man who helped supply actor Matthew Perry with ketamine in the weeks before his death is sentenced to two years in prison in California, according to reports from multiple outlets. The sources describe him as a middleman involved in obtaining and delivering ketamine to Perry prior to the actor’s fatal overdose in 2023. NDTV reports that the individual played a role in providing drugs to Perry in the period leading up to his death. Daily Sabah similarly says the 56-year-old man supplied ketamine that contributed to the overdose. RTE adds that the man is a licensed drug addiction counsellor who delivered Perry the doses of ketamine that killed him. All accounts characterize the sentencing as the result of his involvement in the drug distribution arrangement connected to Perry’s death. The reports present the same core outcome—jailing the supplier for two years—while differing slightly in how they describe the person’s role and background (middleman versus licensed addiction counsellor).
