A Santa Monica doctor was sentenced Wednesday in Los Angeles to 2.5 years (30 months) for repeatedly selling ketamine to actor Matthew Perry, who died of an overdose on October 28, 2023.
Salvador Plasencia, 44, also known as “Dr. P,” was immediately turned over to federal custody after District Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett sentenced him to 30 months.
Plasencia pleaded guilty in July to four counts of ketamine distribution and surrendered his California medical license in September.
