Plasencia was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison last December after pleading guilty to four counts of distribution of ketamine. Mark Chavez, another former physician, was sentenced to eight months of home detention and three years of probation for conspiracy to distribute the drug. Sangha, the so-called \u201cKetamine Queen\u201d of North Hollywood, was given the harshest sentence of 15 years in prison for operating a distribution network out of her apartment. Fleming, who coordinated with Iwamasa to purchase ketamine from Sangha for Perry, was sentenced to two years in prison earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/coasttocoastmoverss.com\/?p=97\">Trump\u2019s Supporters Reject His Anti-Weaponization Fund In New Poll: Nearly Half Of MAGA Oppose<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Surprising Fact<\/h2>\n<p>Perry\u2019s family felt particularly hurt by Iwamasa\u2019s role in his death, according to statements to the court. \u201cMatthew trusted Kenny,\u201d his mother, Suzanne Morrison, wrote in a victim impact statement before Iwamasa\u2019s sentencing. \u201cWe trusted Kenny.
