Matthew Perry’s assistant and the other individuals tied to the star’s death allegedly tried to cover up his overdose. In the days after his death, Kenneth Iwamasa, Erik Fleming, and Jasveen Sangha (Ketamine Queen) attempted to get rid of evidence that would tie them to Perry’s death. More details from court documents reveal what they did and said to try and cover everything up.
Iwamasa, Fleming & Sangha Attempted A Cover Up
The trio did what they could to get rid of any evidence that would link them to the ketamine that ultimately took the late actor’s life. Fleming and the “Ketamine Queen” were the first to attempt to cover their tracks by “deleting digital evidence” from their phones.
Jasveen Sangha told Fleming to delete the text messages they’d exchanged. They also updated Signal, which is an encrypted app, to automatically delete messages between the two of them.
Phone records also show that Erik Fleming and Matthew Perry’s assistant Kenneth Iwamasa spoke on October 30, two days after the Friends star’s death. In court documents, Iwamasa admitted to trying to clean up the scene. He got rid of syringes and vials of ketamine in the house.
In a text message to Sangha, Fleming seemed to place blame on Perry’s assistant. “Please call… Got more info and want to bounce ideas off you,” he wrote. “I’m 90% sure everyone is protected. I never dealt with [Victim M.P.]. Only his Assistant. So the Assistant was the enabler. Also are they doing a 3 month tox screening … Does K stay in your system or is it immediately flushed out?”
Sangha allegedly provided the ketamine, which was dropped off at the home of Matthew Perry by Fleming. However, it was Iwamasa that injected the fatal dose of the drug.
Matthew Perry’s Final Days Were Drug-Fueled
On the morning of October 28, 2023, Iwamasa gave Perry a shot of ketamine at 8:30 a.m. A second shot was administered by 12:45 p.m. Then, just 40 minutes later, Matthew Perry demanded Iwamasa shoot him up “with a big one.”
His assistant proceeded to give him a third shot when Perry was either in or around the jacuzzi. Afterward, Iwamasa left Perry alone to run errands. When he got back, he found the actor face down in the jacuzzi dead.
The days leading up to Matthew Perry’s death were driven by drugs. On October 10, his assistant met Dr. Salvador Plasencia in a parking lot with Perry in the car. Plasencia administered a shot of ketamine to the star in the backseat. Then, Iwamasa began searching for other sources of ketamine for his boss.
On the same day, Iwamasa texted Erik Fleming about the prices for vials of ketamine. Three days later, Fleming delivered a sample to Iwamasa. Then, after determining the quality was good, Fleming returned the next day with 25 vials of the drug.
Less than a week before Perry’s death, Iwamasa purchased 25 more vials (October 24). Then, on October 27, Dr. Plasencia texted Iwamasa saying, “Hi I know you mentioned taking a break. I have been stocking up on the meanwhile. I am not sure when you guys plan to resume but in case its when im out of town this weekend I have left supplies with a nurse of mine.”
The next day the Friends star died as a result of the “acute effects of ketamine.”
Iwamasa, Fleming, and Dr. Mark Chavez (the second doctor charged in the case) have all pleaded guilty to their involvement in Perry’s death. Sangha has not yet submitted a plea and Dr. Plasencia has pleaded not guilty.
