Although he did not provide the ketamine that led to Matthew Perry's death, he sold approximately twenty vials of this anesthetic before the actor's passing. Plasencia faces up to 40 years in prison and has promised to give up practicing medicine. Perry's mother and his stepfather stated that the doctor did not fulfill his duty, and his lawyers acknowledged the serious mistakes made. The prosecution claims that Plasencia exploited the actor's vulnerabilities, selling him ketamine at exorbitant prices.

Matthew Perry, known for his role in "Friends," had a public struggle with addiction, needing 65 detox sessions. His death shocked fans and generated tributes throughout the entertainment industry.
