Debbie Perry submitted a powerful victim-impact statement to a California court this week, calling out Jasvine Sanga, known as the ketamine queen, for causing irreversible harm to countless lives. Sanga faces more than six decades behind bars when she gets sentenced tomorrow. She already pleaded guilty to five charges, including distributing ketamine that led to death or serious injury. Perry was found unresponsive in his Los Angeles, Chakuzi in 2023, and officials ruled it an accidental overdose from high levels of the drug. Debbie Perry laid out the deep pain in her statement, saying there's no joy left and no light for the family. She accused Sanga of choosing profit over people, despite her business smarts.
