‘Ketamine Queen’ Charged in Matthew Perry’s Death Is a Die-Hard Mafia Fan
The so-called “Ketamine Queen” accused of supplying the deadly drug batch that killed actor Matthew Perry is a die-hard mafia fan who owns a website dedicated to the world of organized crime.
Jasveen Sangha, 41, who was among five people arrested Thursday in connection with the “Friends” star’s death, used the site — first reported by TMZ — to brag about his “love” for the notorious crime ring.
His obsession with criminal gangs dates back to his childhood, after watching the films “Scarface” and “The Godfather,” according to his website’s bio page.
“Later in high school, I decided to do a research project on the Mafia and became fascinated with the history and the many stories attached to each of America’s notorious crime families and famous gangsters,” she wrote.
The website is also divided into subsections, including “Mafia Mugshots,” “Famous Mafia Faces,” “Mafia Family Towns,” “Mafia History,” and “Favorite Mafia Movies.”
The emergence of Sangha’s crime-obsessed blog came shortly after the alleged drug kingpin was hit with a series of charges relating to Perry’s death in October last year.
Prosecutors say Sangha – whom they call the “ketamine queen of Los Angeles” – used her North Hollywood “stash house” as a distribution point for the ketamine that killed the actor.
She is accused of providing the drug batch to alleged co-conspirator Erik Fleming, who then sold it to Perry, according to a California federal indictment.
Sangha was indicted alongside Dr. Salvador “Dr. P.” Plasencia, Dr. Mark Chavez, Perry’s personal assistant Kenneth Iwamasa, and Fleming.
The “Friends” actor was found floating face down in a hot tub at his Pacific Palisades home on Oct. 28 after overdosing on the powerful anesthetic.
