The ‘Ketamine Queen’ may have referred to Matthew Perry as “Chandler” in coded drug-related messages, reportedly using the name of the famous TV character as a disguise.

Jasveen Sangha, dubbed the “ketamine queen,” has been charged in connection with Matthew Perry’s death and allegedly used the codename “Chandler” when discussing drug deals that contributed to the actor’s fatal overdose. Court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, including a plea agreement signed by Sangha’s middleman and co-conspirator Erik Fleming, reveal this detail.

Prosecutors allege that when Sangha communicated with Fleming about Perry, she referred to the actor using the name of a famous character he portrayed on television.

Perry, best known for his role as Chandler Bing on the popular NBC sitcom *Friends*, rose to fame with his impeccable comedic timing during the show’s 10-year run starting in 1994. Alongside co-stars Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, Lisa Kudrow, and Courteney Cox, Perry became a household name. The show’s success led the cast to secure $1 million each for the series finale, with significant royalties continuing from reruns.

Investigators claim Sangha, Fleming, and three others charged in connection with Perry’s death exploited the actor’s wealth and struggles with addiction for financial gain. Fleming, 54, connected with Perry through a mutual friend and facilitated the delivery of Sangha’s ketamine to Perry’s personal assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, who is also charged in the case.Ketamine Queen

According to the indictment, Perry, who had become dependent on legal ketamine therapy treatments, gave Iwamasa money to procure the drug from underground sources. Text messages included in the case reveal Fleming describing Sangha as someone who “only deals with high-end celebs” and could “fill any order.” Perry reportedly spent $11,000 on 50 vials of ketamine from the pair in the weeks leading up to his overdose on October 28, 2023.Ketamine Queen

Fleming has pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute ketamine and distribution resulting in death, facing a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, and a potential $1 million fine. His sentencing is scheduled for October 30.Ketamine Queen

Sangha, who has pleaded not guilty, faces a minimum of 10 years and a maximum of life in prison if convicted. Also implicated are doctors Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez, accused of illegally supplying Perry with additional ketamine.

Perry, in a 2016 interview with the BBC, admitted to heavy substance abuse during the filming of *Friends*, stating that he couldn’t remember three years of it. In a 2022 interview with Diane Sawyer, he disclosed that at the peak of his opioid addiction, he was consuming as many as 55 pills a day.Ketamine Queen
