Eric Anderson Speaks to Fox News About Upcoming Trial of “Ketamine Queen” Jasveen Sangha in Connection to Matthew Perry’s Death
Eric Anderson recently spoke to Fox News about the upcoming trial of Jasveen Sangha, who pleaded not guilty to charges in connection to Matthew Perry’s fatal ketamine overdose last year.
Sangha has been nicknamed “Ketamine Queen” in several court documents, which Eric explains to Fox has the potential to create unfair bias among the jury, and could sway them to believe that Sangha was “well known for providing illegal substances to others.”
“Being called the ‘Ketamine Queen’ is akin to being known as ‘Dr. FeelGood’ or ‘The Candy Man,’ monikers that were given to doctors involved in drug and steroid scandals of other eras,” Eric shares. “It makes it harder for the accused, in this case Jasveen Sangha, to say they never knew the victims were abusing a drug, because everyone knew the defendant in question would provide it.”
“It indicates that, among the circle of those who abuse prescription drugs and or enable users, Sangha was well-known and reliable. The main source, if you will. No different than being called the ‘King of Sales.’ A jury will hear this and immediately be told that not only was she dealing medication, but that she was well known for it,” he continues.
“In a case like this where we deal with the abuse of prescription medication, the prosecution will paint a world within a world – one where the rich and famous go to certain people to get their drugs – and that world is small. The imagery will be that she was proud of the moniker and earned it.”
