Personal Assistant Sentenced for Perry's Death

from Sheffield News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Kenneth Iwamasa, Matthew Perry’s longtime personal assistant, has been sentenced to three years and five months in prison for administering ketamine without medical training, directly leading to Perry’s death in 2023. Iwamasa, who admitted guilt and cooperated with investigators, allegedly gave Perry multiple daily injections in the weeks before his passing, including moments when Perry was found unresponsive. Despite claiming he was following Perry’s wishes, the judge called his actions reckless, and Perry’s family expressed profound disappointment, holding him accountable for betraying their trust. Iwamasa also faces a $10,000 fine and two years of probation. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
