- 0:30Speaker 2: two drug dealers, and Perry's live in assistant charged in
- 0:35Speaker 2: the death of friend star Matthew Perry. Prosecutors claimed the
- 0:40Speaker 2: defendants new Perry was struggling with his addiction, but we're
- 0:45Speaker 2: more concerned with making money than his well being. A
- 0:50Speaker 2: so called kennemy and queen. Let me tell you something, lady.
- 0:54Speaker 2: That birkenbag and all those Gucci clothes.
- 0:57Speaker 1: You're wearing that ain't gonna get you out of this girl.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Well, they don't have Burken and they don't have Gucci
- 1:06Speaker 2: behind bars.
- 1:07Speaker 1: I hope you like the color orange. Get used to it.
- 1:11Speaker 2: This woman living in the lap of luxury on the
- 1:16Speaker 2: backs of drug addicts and likely been doing it for years.
- 1:24Speaker 2: In her rarefied Hollywood environment to all the A list
- 1:30Speaker 2: celebs who are now quaking in their shoes that they're
- 1:34Speaker 2: going to be found out next.
- 1:36Speaker 1: You don't think they've got this woman's little black book.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they do. So who is the so.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Called ketamine queen and why is she living off the
- 1:48Speaker 2: misery of others? You know, sometimes people kid themselves into
- 1:53Speaker 2: thinking certain drugs are glamorous, you know, like cocaine or ecstasy,
- 2:00Speaker 2: designer drugs, ketamine.
- 2:03Speaker 1: It's not glamorous.
- 2:05Speaker 2: It ended Matthew Perry under the water, dead in a
- 2:10Speaker 2: hot tub after years of fighting addiction, lying about hiding it,
- 2:17Speaker 2: paying tens of thousands of dollars to rehab only the
- 2:21Speaker 2: best the Betty Ford clinic, to this clinic, to that clinic,
- 2:24Speaker 2: that this specialist covering it up from the world so
- 2:29Speaker 2: he could maintain his Hollywood image. He suffered and died,
- 2:35Speaker 2: and this woman is sitting in her claw foot tub
- 2:39Speaker 2: with a birken bag on her foot.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Woman, you know what, It's not glamorous.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Let me just kick it off right now to doctor
- 2:49Speaker 2: William Maroney.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Doctor Maroney, listen to this.
- 2:58Speaker 3: Radio.
- 2:59Speaker 4: One of droning.
- 3:07Speaker 5: Federal prosecutors alleged that Perry first obtains ketemine from an
- 3:11Speaker 5: unscrupulous doctor aiming to take advantage of the actor's addiction issues.
- 3:15Speaker 5: Doctor Salvador Placentia teaches Perry's living assistant, Kenneth Ewa Massa,
- 3:19Speaker 5: how to administer the drug and provides ketamine to both
- 3:23Speaker 5: Perry and Ewa Masa at exorbitant prices. When the drugs
- 3:26Speaker 5: become too expensive, Perry and Ewa Maasa turned to street dealers,
- 3:30Speaker 5: including jazzvin Songha dubbed the ketamine Queen.
- 3:34Speaker 2: You know to doctor William Moroney joining me, renowned medical examiner, toxicologist, pathologist,
- 3:41Speaker 2: opioid treatment expert, and author of American Narcan that would
- 3:46Speaker 2: have saved the life of Prince and so many other
- 3:48Speaker 2: stars and people from opioid overdose, Doctor Moroney, somehow, it's
- 3:55Speaker 2: the misconception is flourished, as it did about Matthew Perry,
- 4:00Speaker 2: that ketamine and other so called designer drugs are glamorous.
- 4:04Speaker 1: They're not.
- 4:06Speaker 2: All of those abusers end up in one place, a
- 4:10Speaker 2: cold slab in your office.
- 4:13Speaker 6: Explain, Ketamine is never really meant to be self administered,
- 4:18Speaker 6: and it's never really meant to be used in a
- 4:21Speaker 6: family setting or an ambulatory setting. It's a hallucinogen, it
- 4:27Speaker 6: causes sedation, and the FDA approved use of.
- 4:31Speaker 7: Ketamine is once a month.
- 4:35Speaker 6: In his last day, according to testimony, three three times.
- 4:41Speaker 6: He was given ketamine injections the day he died. It's
- 4:46Speaker 6: meant to be given once a month under supervision during therapy.
- 4:52Speaker 6: Ketamine is a plan. And this is so out of control.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Okay, you know what. I appreciate all of that.
- 4:59Speaker 2: But what I I asked you, doctor, my longtime colleague
- 5:04Speaker 2: and friend. I asked you, is it Glammar Russ, because
- 5:10Speaker 2: that's the way it's betrayed. Hold on, if you can
- 5:13Speaker 2: see your screen, can you show me the dealer, the
- 5:16Speaker 2: glam ketamine queen, because she makes it all look so good. Okay,
- 5:22Speaker 2: I've seen that picture. Do you have another picture you
- 5:26Speaker 2: can show me? Okay, there that right there, How can
- 5:29Speaker 2: you It's hard to look at her and reconcile that
- 5:35Speaker 2: that woman right there, according to prosecutors, according to the state,
- 5:41Speaker 2: has heaped misery and suffering on so many people so
- 5:48Speaker 2: she could line her pockets her right there. Perry is
- 5:55Speaker 2: dead thanks to her, according to prosecutors, and all of
- 5:59Speaker 2: his friends.
- 6:01Speaker 1: And I don't mean that as a play on words.
- 6:03Speaker 2: You've got this longtime friend, living assistant giving him the dope.
- 6:09Speaker 1: That's what it is. Dope.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Until he dies, everybody knew he was struggling with addiction.
- 6:16Speaker 1: Everybody knew that. Does this woman care? No, no drug
- 6:20Speaker 1: dealer cares. What does it do to a person, doctor.
- 6:25Speaker 6: Morony, Well, at higher doses than needed, it sedates you,
- 6:31Speaker 6: It drives your heart rate up, It can give you
- 6:34Speaker 6: a rhythmias that make you susceptible to sudden death, and
- 6:41Speaker 6: it prevents.
- 6:41Speaker 7: You from moving.
- 6:42Speaker 6: Because it's an anesthetic, nothing can change the classification. It's
- 6:50Speaker 6: called a dissociate of anesthetic. Why would anybody take an anesthetic?
- 6:54Speaker 6: You can't think, you can't move, and eventually you can't breathe.
- 6:58Speaker 7: So the whole problem.
- 7:01Speaker 6: Is people think they can get away with it. These
- 7:05Speaker 6: people are sold the idea that this is the answer.
- 7:09Speaker 6: At one point, it could have been heroin, It could
- 7:12Speaker 6: have been cocaine, could have been alcohol, stitutamine, and they say, okay,
- 7:18Speaker 6: when you need more, give me a call after one shot.
- 7:22Speaker 7: Eventually you need to.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Hold on, doctor Moroney, because that's exactly what happened right here.
- 7:27Speaker 2: I'm trying to drink in everything you're saying. I'm just
- 7:31Speaker 2: a tryal lawyer. You're the professional, the toxicologist, the pathologist,
- 7:36Speaker 2: and you've even written the book about use of opioids
- 7:41Speaker 2: and drugs and how to save people's lives to doctor
- 7:45Speaker 2: Bethany Marshall, Doctor Bethany Marshall, Finally somebody brings down the
- 7:50Speaker 2: hammer on this drug operation.
- 7:53Speaker 1: And this is not, according.
- 7:55Speaker 2: To sources, the first person that has lost their lives
- 7:59Speaker 2: to the Please very people, listen, doctor Bethany.
- 8:02Speaker 8: The two lead defendants in this case are defendants Salvador
- 8:06Speaker 8: Placentia and defendant Jesseviine Sanya. Defendant Placentia was a medical doctor.
- 8:14Speaker 8: He worked with another medical doctor, defendant Mark Chavez, to
- 8:18Speaker 8: obtain ketmy. He then worked with mister Perry's live in
- 8:23Speaker 8: assistant defendant Kenneth Iwamasa to distribute that ketamine to mister Perry.
- 8:31Speaker 8: Sonya and the broker defendant Fleming saw this as an
- 8:34Speaker 8: opportunity to profit off of mister Perry. She sold approximately
- 8:39Speaker 8: fifty vials of ketamine for approximately eleven thousand dollars in cash.
- 8:45Speaker 8: She worked with a broker defendant, Eric Fleming, and also
- 8:48Speaker 8: the live in assistant defendant Iwamasa to distribute this kedemy.
- 8:54Speaker 1: A tangled web of dopers, you know.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Doctor Bethany Marshall is joining us a high profile psychoanalyst
- 9:01Speaker 2: author of deal Breaker Doctor Bethany.
- 9:04Speaker 1: I'm just thinking of all the.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Drug lords and dopers that I have prosecuted put behind
- 9:11Speaker 2: bars over all the years. You know, this woman we're
- 9:14Speaker 2: looking at, there's so glamorous and her high end lifestyle.
- 9:20Speaker 2: She had just traveled to Tokyo, Europe, all over the world.
- 9:26Speaker 2: Have you, Bethany, did you grow up on a farm
- 9:30Speaker 2: you went with your parents all around the world as
- 9:32Speaker 2: a missionary?
- 9:33Speaker 1: Correct?
- 9:33Speaker 7: Yes, grew up.
- 9:34Speaker 9: In Central West Africa, Congo.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Okay, then you've seen a tick.
- 9:38Speaker 2: I assume you know bloods Absolutely, yes, that's who she is.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Every time I look at her, I see a tick,
- 9:45Speaker 2: and they get bigger and fatter as they suck the
- 9:50Speaker 2: blood of their victim.
- 9:52Speaker 1: And that is what.
- 9:53Speaker 2: She was doing with Matthew Perry. And I guarantee you
- 9:57Speaker 2: he's not the first.
- 9:58Speaker 9: You know, she was going out selling one more vile
- 10:01Speaker 9: and one more vile to go out and buy one
- 10:03Speaker 9: more Airmeas bag or Gucci pair of shoes, or you know,
- 10:06Speaker 9: she was just really satisfying her own greed. And what
- 10:09Speaker 9: makes me so sad, Nancy, is that people suffering from
- 10:14Speaker 9: some substance abuse disorders are extraordinarily vulnerable. Matthew Perry was vulnerable.
- 10:20Speaker 9: He was chasing that next high. His brain was craving
- 10:23Speaker 9: the addiction. He had a long history of substance abuse disorder.
- 10:27Speaker 9: And by the way, so do About fifteen percent of
- 10:30Speaker 9: all Americans over the age of twelve have suffered from
- 10:35Speaker 9: a substance abuse disorder in this past year.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Can you say that again? I thought I didn't hear
- 10:40Speaker 1: you correctly.
- 10:40Speaker 9: What more than fifteen percent of all Americans over the
- 10:46Speaker 9: age of twelve have suffered from a substance abuse disorder
- 10:51Speaker 9: in this past year. Of those Americans, only six point
- 10:56Speaker 9: seven percent of them ever received.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Listen to this, everybody, Mike McCormick joining me, owner, lead
- 11:03Speaker 2: investigator mcmm mother c Charlie m Mother Investigations, former LAPD
- 11:10Speaker 2: over twenty five years.
- 11:12Speaker 1: Listen to this, Mike.
- 11:15Speaker 2: It is reported that the Ketamine Queen supplied twenty five
- 11:21Speaker 2: vials of ketamine four days to Parry just four days
- 11:26Speaker 2: before his death, and boasted as she.
- 11:29Speaker 1: Sold it to him as it being a high.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Quality drug, adding it's unmarked, but it's amazing now. Immediately
- 11:40Speaker 2: after his death, is reported she messaged her co conspirators,
- 11:45Speaker 2: according to the state, stating delete all our messages, and
- 11:50Speaker 2: then she goes off on a whirlwind tour I think
- 11:54Speaker 2: it was Japan, but flying off on a private jet,
- 12:00Speaker 2: laid all your messages, destroy the evidence she knew. She
- 12:04Speaker 2: knew Mike McCormick. And there's no way in huble l
- 12:08Speaker 2: that there's not a string of other Hollywood celebs that
- 12:12Speaker 2: are her clients.
- 12:14Speaker 10: That's true. It's going to be probably a lot more
- 12:18Speaker 10: suspects brought into this death of Matthew Perry as time
- 12:25Speaker 10: goes by. I don't think it's limited to just the
- 12:30Speaker 10: amount of people that have been in the news in
- 12:32Speaker 10: the last few days. I think there's going to be more.
- 12:36Speaker 10: I think the assistant Kenneth definitely didn't do his job.
- 12:43Speaker 10: He should have. He should have brought in the family
- 12:48Speaker 10: members and made them aware of what the extent of
- 12:52Speaker 10: the problem is. And we have been able to actually
- 12:57Speaker 10: save Matthew from this situation, from dying of an overdose,
- 13:04Speaker 10: you know.
- 13:05Speaker 2: But instead of trying to save him, Mike, everyone enabled
- 13:09Speaker 2: him with friends like those I mean listen.
- 13:12Speaker 11: Perry turned to a street dealer, Eric Fleming, who sourced
- 13:16Speaker 11: his ketymine from a drug trafficker known as the ketemine
- 13:19Speaker 11: Queen Jasvine Sangha. The ketymine supplied by Sanha would ultimately
- 13:25Speaker 11: be the dose that took Matthew Perry's life. Some knew
- 13:30Speaker 11: that the ketamine she supplied could be deadly.
- 13:33Speaker 1: Despite this knowledge.
- 13:35Speaker 11: She continued to sell ketamine and methaphetamine throughout Los Angeles.
- 13:39Speaker 2: Now joining me, high profile lawyer, former federal prosecutor, Nima Romani,
- 13:46Speaker 2: president West Coast Trial Lawyers, author of.
- 13:49Speaker 1: Harvard to hashtag Nima.
- 13:52Speaker 2: It was slow in coming, but finally the Fed's hand
- 13:56Speaker 2: down a major indictment.
- 13:58Speaker 1: I'm happy they did it, But do you.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Think if they had acted earlier, Perry's life could have
- 14:05Speaker 2: been saved and probably the lives of many others well.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Probably man See, let's not forget that Soga was responsible
- 14:12Speaker 3: for another drug related death in twenty nineteen, Cody McKellen,
- 14:16Speaker 3: and it was kedemene that she provided.
- 14:18Speaker 1: That killed them that same day. And the political.
- 14:21Speaker 3: Reality is that they spend a lot more time investigating
- 14:24Speaker 3: this case because of who the victim was. You have
- 14:27Speaker 3: a celebrity victim obviously got a lot of attention, and
- 14:31Speaker 3: that's why you had federal resources as well as local resources.
- 14:35Speaker 3: LAPD put on this case to bring hopefully the perpetrators
- 14:39Speaker 3: to justice.
- 14:40Speaker 8: They distributed approximately twenty vials of ketamine to mister Perry
- 14:45Speaker 8: in exchange for fifty five thousand dollars in cash. Defendant
- 14:50Speaker 8: Placentia saw this as an opportunity to profit off of
- 14:54Speaker 8: mister Perry. He wrote in a text message in September
- 14:57Speaker 8: twenty twenty three, quote, I wonder how much this moron
- 15:02Speaker 8: will pay. He also stated in text messages that he
- 15:06Speaker 8: wanted to be mister Perry's sole source of supply. He
- 15:10Speaker 8: wrote in a text message that he wanted to be
- 15:13Speaker 8: mister Perry's quote go to for drugs.
- 15:23Speaker 12: I wonder how much this moron will pay? Let's find out.
- 15:27Speaker 12: Text messages reveal the motivation of those charged in Matthew
- 15:32Speaker 12: Perry's death.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Joining us right now, Lauren Colin, investigative reporter and star
- 15:40Speaker 2: of Crime Time on YouTube, Lauren Colin.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us.
- 15:44Speaker 2: So who while they're literally killing him like a tick,
- 15:51Speaker 2: just sucking his blood, taking his money as they know
- 15:56Speaker 2: his condition is quote spiraling out of control. They that
- 16:00Speaker 2: their communications not me, their words not mine.
- 16:04Speaker 1: They actually call him a moron.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Matthew Perry, who was a child tennis prodigy who goes
- 16:13Speaker 2: to LA and lands on his.
- 16:15Speaker 1: Feet, ending up with the role of a lifetime on friends.
- 16:19Speaker 1: That that moron who said.
- 16:22Speaker 13: That, Lauren Conlin, Yes, this is doctor Salvator Placentia who
- 16:26Speaker 13: said this, And Nancy, let's not forget that. Sixteen days
- 16:30Speaker 13: before Matthew Perry's death, Salvator Placentia shot up Matthew Perry
- 16:35Speaker 13: with a very large dose of ketamine, which caused Matthew
- 16:39Speaker 13: Perry to freeze up, and doctor Placentia said to Kenneth Ewamasa, hm,
- 16:45Speaker 13: we better not do that again. Well, we know that
- 16:48Speaker 13: that was not the case, and just very quickly Nancy
- 16:51Speaker 13: going back to jazz Beene Sangha as Mima said. She
- 16:57Speaker 13: was found to be responsible for the twenty nine nineteen
- 17:00Speaker 13: death of a thirty three year old young man, Cody
- 17:03Speaker 13: mclory in LA and also Matthew Perry was said to
- 17:07Speaker 13: have met her in rehab along with Brooke Mueller.
- 17:11Speaker 2: Guys, speaking of Matthew Perry quote freezing up listen.
- 17:16Speaker 8: Defendant Placentia knew full well the danger of what he
- 17:20Speaker 8: was doing. In fact, on one occasion he injected mister
- 17:24Speaker 8: Perry with kenmine and he saw mister Perry freeze up
- 17:28Speaker 8: and his blood pressure spike. Despite that, he left additional
- 17:33Speaker 8: vials of ketamine for defendant Iwamasa to administer to mister Perry.
- 17:39Speaker 8: Of course, defendant Ewa Masa had no medical training to
- 17:42Speaker 8: speak of.
- 17:43Speaker 2: Doctor William Maroney joining me, renowned toxicologist and pathologist, author
- 17:47Speaker 2: of American Narcian who has devoted his career to fighting
- 17:52Speaker 2: opioid and substance abuse. Doctor Moroney, I've heard it stated
- 17:58Speaker 2: in several publications and several points of evidence.
- 18:02Speaker 1: That they had observed or knew.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Of Matthew Perry quote freezing up. I'm not sure what
- 18:10Speaker 2: that means, but it didn't stop them from giving him
- 18:13Speaker 2: nearly thirty miles of ketamine just before his death.
- 18:16Speaker 6: What it actually comes down to is ketamine is an anesthetic.
- 18:21Speaker 6: So if you give too much, you don't just relax somebody.
- 18:25Speaker 7: They do freeze up.
- 18:27Speaker 6: You freeze somebody up at the side of their pool
- 18:31Speaker 6: or in their kitchen. You don't have a crash cart,
- 18:35Speaker 6: you don't have anything else. You just have to wait
- 18:39Speaker 6: it out or possibly call nine to one one. They
- 18:41Speaker 6: were lucky that they didn't kill him earlier. But the
- 18:46Speaker 6: end result is the same because of the disregard for life.
- 18:50Speaker 6: As they gave him more, he became more dependent. And
- 18:55Speaker 6: then the final day when he died, he got three injections.
- 18:58Speaker 6: This is a drug proved to get once a month
- 19:02Speaker 6: from a psychiatrist, and they were giving it daily, which
- 19:07Speaker 6: is more dangerous than anything.
- 19:10Speaker 2: Back to him freezing up. That is what going into
- 19:13Speaker 2: a seizure.
- 19:14Speaker 6: What is that muscle stiffness and the early stages of anesthesia.
- 19:21Speaker 6: Anesthesia making him fall asleep on purpose, because that's how
- 19:26Speaker 6: we use it when we take people to surgery.
- 19:28Speaker 1: How exactly did the scheme work?
- 19:31Speaker 14: Listen, Doctor Salvador Placentia obtains ketamine for Perry from doctor
- 19:36Speaker 14: Mark Chavez. Chavez writes a fraudulent prescription for an unwitting
- 19:41Speaker 14: patient and lies to wholesale ketamine distributors to obtain both
- 19:45Speaker 14: liquid and lozenge forms of ketamine for doctor Placentia, who
- 19:49Speaker 14: in turns dispenses them to Perry on at least seven occasions,
- 19:53Speaker 14: despite noting Perry's addiction is quote spiraling out of control.
- 19:58Speaker 14: When Placentia is ord to turn over Perry's medical records,
- 20:02Speaker 14: the doctor falsifies and alters several reports to show a
- 20:06Speaker 14: purported treatment plan for Perry.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Okay, back to Lauren Conlin joining us from Prime Time
- 20:12Speaker 2: Crime on YouTube.
- 20:15Speaker 1: Lauren, So let me understand this.
- 20:17Speaker 2: They state amongst themselves that his addiction is spiraling out
- 20:21Speaker 2: of control.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Their words, not mine, but they.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Continue and they call it a treatment plan.
- 20:28Speaker 1: Why did they name it a treatment plan?
- 20:31Speaker 2: Sang Hay is just basically a dope dealer, just like
- 20:35Speaker 2: a doper on the street that a couple of blocks
- 20:38Speaker 2: from the elementary school. She's no different. So what was
- 20:43Speaker 2: the so called treatment plan?
- 20:45Speaker 13: This is absolutely absurd, Nancy. And let's not forget that
- 20:49Speaker 13: Matthew Perry just started working with these doctors a month
- 20:53Speaker 13: prior to his death, So this quote unquote treatment plan,
- 20:57Speaker 13: it was all made up. They literally just did this
- 21:00Speaker 13: for money. And it also was stated in the press
- 21:04Speaker 13: conference that these doctors were selling him vials that they
- 21:08Speaker 13: paid twelve dollars for for two thousand dollars. And Kenneth
- 21:12Speaker 13: Ewamasa confirmed with the LAPD and the DEA that the
- 21:17Speaker 13: three days before Matthew Perry's death, he was administering between
- 21:21Speaker 13: six and eight doses of kenymine a day. And you know,
- 21:25Speaker 13: like doctor Moroney said, the last day he was alive,
- 21:28Speaker 13: he had three, but the days leading up to it
- 21:30Speaker 13: it was between six and eight doses.
- 21:33Speaker 1: And if the.
- 21:33Speaker 13: Doctors prescribed that, oh boy, I would be shocked.
- 21:36Speaker 1: Doctor Bethany, the price differential.
- 21:39Speaker 2: You can get the same amount of ketamine on the
- 21:41Speaker 2: street for twelve bucks, and he's paying two thousand dollars
- 21:46Speaker 2: for one vial, Doctor Bethany, speaking of blood sucking ticks.
- 21:52Speaker 1: Not only do.
- 21:53Speaker 2: They aid him, enable him to his own death, but
- 21:59Speaker 2: they make fun of him, overcharging him, gouging him. But
- 22:03Speaker 2: then they call him names and make fun of how
- 22:06Speaker 2: much he will pay.
- 22:07Speaker 9: In their text, Nancy, they had disregard and disdained for them,
- 22:12Speaker 9: But who are the morons? They killed their cash cow
- 22:15Speaker 9: in one month and now they're going to spend years
- 22:18Speaker 9: behind bars. So I think what really upsets me about
- 22:22Speaker 9: the situation. I'm thinking about a very wealthy patient in
- 22:24Speaker 9: my Beverly Hills practice struggling with addiction, and everybody tried
- 22:30Speaker 9: to provide drugs for him. I would get him into rehab,
- 22:32Speaker 9: then all of a sudden, the house manager would come
- 22:35Speaker 9: in and just leave drugs around the house. He would
- 22:38Speaker 9: get rid of the house manager, then he would get
- 22:40Speaker 9: a new girlfriend who then would addict and hook them again,
- 22:43Speaker 9: so he would take her shopping for jewelry. I mean,
- 22:46Speaker 9: he was a mark sitting out there in society because
- 22:50Speaker 9: of his substance abuse. So people who have these horrible
- 22:53Speaker 9: addictions like Matthew Perry, the people around them are bloodsucking
- 22:58Speaker 9: ticks to attract a whole network of people who just
- 23:03Speaker 9: see dollar signs all over the place, and they do
- 23:06Speaker 9: not care about the patient. Did you notice that picture
- 23:09Speaker 9: of doctor Placentia has UCLA Healthcare on his lab jacket,
- 23:14Speaker 9: UCLA on his lab coat. There it is a UCLA
- 23:18Speaker 9: health system. So under the guise of being a medical expert,
- 23:22Speaker 9: of caring of the oath of do no harm, he
- 23:25Speaker 9: is actually extracting money from somebody, worsening that person's addiction,
- 23:31Speaker 9: knowing that that person's going to die, and so stupid
- 23:35Speaker 9: and more on it. He thinks he's not going.
- 23:37Speaker 1: To get caught.
- 23:38Speaker 12: One doctor notes Matthew Perry's addiction as spiraling out of control.
- 23:45Speaker 12: Still Perry is sold twenty mials of ketamine, totaling fifty
- 23:50Speaker 12: five thousand dollars.
- 23:55Speaker 2: Finally, federal indictments go down. I'm thrilled about the indictments,
- 24:02Speaker 2: But I wonder if they had been handed down against
- 24:06Speaker 2: this as I'm calling them blood sucking ticks that lived
- 24:10Speaker 2: off Matthew Perry and others. If it had happened earlier,
- 24:14Speaker 2: could his life and others have been saved? Right now,
- 24:18Speaker 2: I'm just glad the charges occurred. Now we're talking about
- 24:22Speaker 2: other potential victims.
- 24:24Speaker 5: Listen, Doctor Salvador Placentia's exorbitant prices pushed Matthew Perry to
- 24:28Speaker 5: seek a new ketamine source. Assistant Kenneth Ewa Massa reaches
- 24:32Speaker 5: out to several street dealers. Eric Fleming agrees to a
- 24:35Speaker 5: deal and turns to his supplier, Josvin Songhaw for ketamine
- 24:39Speaker 5: from her North Hollywood stash house. Fleming pays Songhaw from
- 24:42Speaker 5: the drugs with cash from Ewa Masa. Songha is well
- 24:45Speaker 5: aware of the dangers of ketamine. One of her previous buyers,
- 24:48Speaker 5: Cody mclory, died of an overdose on the drug four
- 24:51Speaker 5: years earlier.
- 24:52Speaker 2: We were just talking about a guy named Cody mcclauri.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Also dead.
- 25:00Speaker 4: Jazzvien Songha sells Cody mclowery several vials of ketamine. Later
- 25:05Speaker 4: that same day, mclowry's family finds him dead. A family
- 25:08Speaker 4: member tells Sogha her ketamine caused mclowry's overdose death, and
- 25:13Speaker 4: Songha google's can ketamine be listed as a cause of death? Nevertheless,
- 25:18Speaker 4: Songhak continues peddling ketamine and other drugs from her stash house.
- 25:22Speaker 2: You know that's the thing, Doctor William Maroney, renowned toxicologist
- 25:28Speaker 2: Dr Maroney.
- 25:30Speaker 1: Dopers don't care.
- 25:32Speaker 2: The family goes to sing y'all and says, you did
- 25:37Speaker 2: this to Cody, and she's like, oh okay, Google, Google, Google,
- 25:42Speaker 2: can kennymy be listed as a cod not? Oh my stars,
- 25:47Speaker 2: I'm never doing this again. It's how this horrible effeke.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Cody is dead.
- 25:52Speaker 2: No, she just wants to find out is basically she
- 25:56Speaker 2: gonna be implicated and the death of Cody McLaury se
- 26:00Speaker 2: jets off to Japan with burken bags on both arms.
- 26:04Speaker 6: I mean really, Ketamine is listed as cause of death
- 26:07Speaker 6: all across America. Fentanyl is listed as a death cause
- 26:11Speaker 6: of death all cause America. Methanphetamine. We're very specific about
- 26:17Speaker 6: cause of death. We mention the chemical if it's a chemical,
- 26:23Speaker 6: and we mentioned the medicine if it was prescribed and
- 26:26Speaker 6: it was ethical. There are five manners of death, and
- 26:31Speaker 6: his death is considered an accident because the CDC says
- 26:37Speaker 6: drug overdoses are accidents. But we'll have to see if
- 26:42Speaker 6: in a court that's a different definition that it was
- 26:47Speaker 6: caused because somebody else did the injections.
- 26:51Speaker 7: So there's a play between the picate.
- 26:55Speaker 6: Clearly, always ketamine will be listed as a cause of death.
- 27:00Speaker 7: Always name it.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Romani, former federal prosecutor turned trial lawyer Nima Why is
- 27:06Speaker 2: it that all the so called rich, glamorous people get
- 27:11Speaker 2: sweetheart deals?
- 27:12Speaker 1: Why is that if there is a.
- 27:14Speaker 2: Sweetheart deal on this bloodsucking tick song.
- 27:19Speaker 1: Hey, I'm going to do a backflip. You've got Cody McLaury.
- 27:23Speaker 2: That we know of, and now Matthew Perry. Well are
- 27:27Speaker 2: they going to kind of deal with this woman?
- 27:29Speaker 3: I don't think so, Nancy. Like I said, there's two
- 27:31Speaker 3: drug related deaths, and it's not just the ketamine we're
- 27:34Speaker 3: talking about, which is a Schedule three And even though
- 27:36Speaker 3: because death as a fifteen year max it's not methamphetamine,
- 27:41Speaker 3: there are very significant sentence in guidelines. So because of
- 27:46Speaker 3: the myth, which is scheduled too, she's looking at a
- 27:48Speaker 3: potential life sentence. If the fence cut her a deal,
- 27:52Speaker 3: it's only because she's going to identify her source. I
- 27:55Speaker 3: don't think that was medical grade ketamine. And obviously we
- 27:58Speaker 3: know in drug cases prosecutors they.
- 28:01Speaker 1: Want to work their way up the chain.
- 28:03Speaker 3: Kennemine is a huge problem in LA right now.
- 28:13Speaker 12: Perry's live in assistant admitted to repeatedly injecting the actor
- 28:18Speaker 12: with ketamine without medical training, and administered multiple injections. The
- 28:25Speaker 12: very day Perry died.
- 28:28Speaker 2: One celeb after the next dead from overdose, probably drugs
- 28:35Speaker 2: given to them by friends.
- 28:37Speaker 1: Listen to this now heard.
- 28:40Speaker 15: How are you doing it? In security? From burdle Hilton

- 29:02Speaker 15: at all. Apparently she wasn't breathing and she's y six
- 29:05Speaker 15: year old. She was not breathing.
- 29:06Speaker 2: Yeah, Whitney Houston, that's a nine to one one call.
- 29:08Speaker 2: Found in a luxe hotel submerged in water? Why because
- 29:14Speaker 2: of drugs? And there's so many others. Amy Winehouse a
- 29:19Speaker 2: brilliant shooting star dead. Of course, Anna Nicole Smith. All

- 29:32Speaker 2: very end, leaving behind children. Chris Farley, the funny guy.

- 29:43Speaker 2: was dead. Heath Ledger, the joker, leaving behind a little girl.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Of course, let's just start at the beginning with this guy.
- 29:56Speaker 2: He had a fishing tackle box full of drugs? Who
- 30:00Speaker 2: gave him that? Janice Jotham, what a star od And
- 30:09Speaker 2: of course no loose is complete without him. Belushi the
- 30:14Speaker 2: ultimate funny guy, Little Peep, just don't forget him. Kurt
- 30:23Speaker 2: Cobain Nirvana leaving behind Francis Bean and of course one
- 30:29Speaker 2: of the biggest stars ever, Michael Jackson like just a brilliant,
- 30:36Speaker 2: burning talent dead, and of course my favorite Prince he
- 30:45Speaker 2: could have lived if he had been given a narcan injection.
- 30:51Speaker 1: That didn't happen.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Everyone stood by, lived off his money and kept feeding
- 30:55Speaker 2: him drugs. We were Phoenix gone so young, de viperome.
- 31:01Speaker 2: Of course, Whitney voice like an angel. Vern Troyer, you
- 31:08Speaker 2: can't help but love this guy wrestler China. It just
- 31:15Speaker 2: we don't even have enough time to go through all
- 31:19Speaker 2: the celebrities that have lost their lives, not just because
- 31:23Speaker 2: of drugs, but because of a tight little circle.
- 31:27Speaker 1: Of so called friends.
- 31:29Speaker 2: And back to Mike McCormick joining US owner lead investigator
- 31:32Speaker 2: mcm Investigations, former LAPD over twenty five years at mcminvestigations
- 31:38Speaker 2: dot com.
- 31:39Speaker 1: Mike, that's the way it is in Hollywood, and the.
- 31:42Speaker 2: Beat goes on the day after Matthew Pierry's dead. Everybody's
- 31:46Speaker 2: getting their supplies from their friends. It it never ends.
- 31:51Speaker 10: It never ends because of the suppliers and the people
- 31:59Speaker 10: involved walk the drugs. I don't know how I ended.
- 32:03Speaker 2: You know too, Doctor Bethany Marshall joining US renow psychoanalyst.
- 32:09Speaker 2: You would think that after Cody McLaury was killed that
- 32:14Speaker 2: the so called ketamine queen I go you know, what.
- 32:17Speaker 2: It's not worth it. How many more birking bags do
- 32:20Speaker 2: I need? How many more private planes do I need
- 32:23Speaker 2: to take.
- 32:23Speaker 1: To Japan or Europe? It's not worth my clients dying.
- 32:29Speaker 1: It didn't stop her.
- 32:30Speaker 9: Why, Nancy, she's homicidal. I mean, we really have to
- 32:33Speaker 9: think about that. That one picture where she has the
- 32:35Speaker 9: red lipstick, black T shirt, straight hair. Do you know
- 32:38Speaker 9: what it says, rip on her T shirt rest in peace
- 32:42Speaker 9: with a picture of Kobe Bryant underneath. I mean, perhaps
- 32:45Speaker 9: it's just I don't know. I design her T shirt
- 32:48Speaker 9: right there, rip cross guy with black classes. It tells
- 32:54Speaker 9: me that on some levels, she really knew what she
- 32:56Speaker 9: was doing. She's wearing her crime. She's wearing her intention.
- 33:00Speaker 9: That watch that beautiful top, that Airmes bag, you know
- 33:05Speaker 9: that is the blood of her clients. The blood of
- 33:08Speaker 9: her clients, Nancy. I think it's easy to glamorize along
- 33:13Speaker 9: with her, that she has these beautiful outfits in the
- 33:16Speaker 9: shoes and this, that and the other. She has sucked
- 33:19Speaker 9: this money.
- 33:20Speaker 1: As so many people do with addicts out.
- 33:23Speaker 9: Of her client to their death. This even happens in
- 33:26Speaker 9: the homeless population, Nancy, where family members will addict homeless
- 33:31Speaker 9: people so that they can take their SSI checks. It
- 33:35Speaker 9: happens from high to low, low to high, all over
- 33:37Speaker 9: the place.
- 33:38Speaker 16: According to Matthew Perry, he had been cleaned for nineteen months,
- 33:42Speaker 16: but The Daily Mail reports the actor died from an
- 33:45Speaker 16: overdose of the party drug ketamine. According to the autopsy report,
- 33:49Speaker 16: a detective who attended the scene of Perry's death said, quote,
- 33:53Speaker 16: during my investigation, no alcohol, elicit drugs or drug paraphernalia
- 33:57Speaker 16: were found unquote. The Daily Mail also claims the fifty
- 34:00Speaker 16: four year old was getting injections of the male hormone testosterone,
- 34:04Speaker 16: and an unnamed female associate claimed the injections were causing
- 34:07Speaker 16: him to be angry and mean for the last couple
- 34:10Speaker 16: of weeks.
- 34:10Speaker 2: Doctor William Maroney, if you could put this in regular
- 34:14Speaker 2: people talk in a nutshell. I've read your autopsy reports
- 34:19Speaker 2: like one sentence can be two paragraphs.
- 34:21Speaker 1: Boil it down, Boil it down.
- 34:24Speaker 2: So Matthew Perry took the ketamine and then he goes
- 34:29Speaker 2: into a euphoric sedation state.
- 34:33Speaker 1: And his body can't fight back. When he goes under
- 34:36Speaker 1: the water.
- 34:36Speaker 6: There's high dose and lotos. You start going into sedation
- 34:41Speaker 6: and euphoria, but it doesn't stop as the dose builds
- 34:45Speaker 6: up in you. That's where you go into frozen muscles.
- 34:49Speaker 6: You can't breathe, your body locks up, because that's what
- 34:54Speaker 6: it's really meant to do as an anesthetic.
- 34:57Speaker 7: It is a.
- 34:59Speaker 1: Pros so a euphoric sedation.
- 35:03Speaker 2: And you I wonder if he could feel himself going
- 35:06Speaker 2: underwater and there was nothing he could do about it,
- 35:10Speaker 2: or look there he is in the hot tub. To
- 35:15Speaker 2: Nima Romani, high profile lawyer, listen to this Songha was
- 35:20Speaker 2: a quote large volume drug dealer and in the complaints
- 35:27Speaker 2: we find out that she would sell ketamine lollipops as
- 35:32Speaker 2: an ad on.
- 35:34Speaker 1: Because his orders were so large.
- 35:38Speaker 2: Now, after seizing her phone, police apparently have found footage
- 35:41Speaker 2: of her on her phone. That's pretty arrogant cooking up ketamine.
- 35:47Speaker 1: She has videoed herself cooking.
- 35:50Speaker 2: Up ketamine and it just you know, there's pictures she
- 35:54Speaker 2: posts online, for instance, of her in a private jet
- 35:58Speaker 2: having caviat and champagne. Just before her arrest, she was
- 36:03Speaker 2: sharing photos on Insta of her with her knee purple hairdoo.
- 36:08Speaker 1: Just she could not have cared less well.
- 36:11Speaker 3: The answered she's on a strip of hole there with
- 36:13Speaker 3: a money gun. But you know you're right, Kennymine is
- 36:17Speaker 3: a big time party drug here in Hollywood, and it's
- 36:19Speaker 3: not given with an ivy at a party.
- 36:22Speaker 1: So what is.
- 36:23Speaker 3: Typically done is users are addicts to cook it and
- 36:27Speaker 3: they transform it into a white, powdery substance like cocaine.
- 36:30Speaker 3: So when you said folks are sniffing each other at
- 36:32Speaker 3: these parties, they're sniffing cocaine and kenemine and not each other.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Sometimes it's even put in a nasal spray, but that's
- 36:39Speaker 3: primarily how it's used and abused in the party scene here.
- 36:44Speaker 3: So the fact that Sanga is one of the world's
- 36:47Speaker 3: dumbest criminals who's videotaping herself processing these types of drugs
- 36:52Speaker 3: isn't surprising because I've seen criminal defendants do all sorts
- 36:55Speaker 3: of stupid things.
- 36:56Speaker 2: You know, it's kind of hard to take in her
- 37:00Speaker 2: and her glamour lifestyle, and you juxtapose that against Matthew
- 37:05Speaker 2: Perry feeling himself going underwater and he's so immobile he
- 37:10Speaker 2: can't fight back. But doctor Bethany Marshall on Insta, this
- 37:15Speaker 2: woman posts herself enjoying caviar in a private jet lounge
- 37:22Speaker 2: just after Perry dies, she's sipping leechy martinis at the
- 37:28Speaker 2: Mandarin Oriental in Tokyo, each suite about two thousand dollars
- 37:34Speaker 2: a night. A few weeks after that, she's sunning herself
- 37:38Speaker 2: by a pool and playa Del Carmen in Mexico, sharing selfies,
- 37:43Speaker 2: drinking more cocktails. It goes on and on and on.
- 37:50Speaker 2: When she finally touches back down. In the US, she
- 37:54Speaker 2: was lapping up the La lifestyle, having ivy drips and
- 37:59Speaker 2: lake night parties.
- 38:01Speaker 1: End quote.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Sound healing sessions helped me out, Doctor Bethany.
- 38:09Speaker 9: Sounds very la to me. You know, she was corrupted
- 38:11Speaker 9: by greed and lack of concern for others. But Nancy,
- 38:15Speaker 9: we see this with Big Pharma. We see this with
- 38:17Speaker 9: the Sackler Family show.
- 38:18Speaker 7: Let's throw them on.
- 38:19Speaker 9: The trash heap of people who have become so greedy
- 38:23Speaker 9: and their lives got so big, and they earned billions
- 38:26Speaker 9: of dollars, and because of that, they did not care
- 38:29Speaker 9: about the millions of Americans who died. These people who
- 38:33Speaker 9: used drugs to have control over others, it's like they're stealing.
- 38:38Speaker 9: It's like they're creeping through a window in another person's house.
- 38:42Speaker 9: Taking the diamonds out of the safe going and just
- 38:45Speaker 9: gloating over the diamonds that they've gotten. They don't care
- 38:48Speaker 9: about the house, they don't care about the people in it,
- 38:51Speaker 9: they don't care about the neurobiology of addiction, and they
- 38:54Speaker 9: don't really care about the wave of devastation that goes
- 38:59Speaker 9: outward and this person's life. Matthew Perry had many people
- 39:02Speaker 9: who love him. The public love him, we love him,
- 39:05Speaker 9: we're talking about him today. But their children, nieces, nephews, parents, cousins,
- 39:10Speaker 9: church members of people he was doing business with. It's
- 39:14Speaker 9: wid spread devastation.
- 39:17Speaker 1: That you know.
- 39:17Speaker 9: Sonier really didn't really care about that. She just wanted
- 39:20Speaker 9: to lead you, Martini, and that was it. Talk about
- 39:22Speaker 9: again moronic. It really is moronic behavior.
- 39:26Speaker 2: We haven't even gotten to the doctor, the drug lord
- 39:29Speaker 2: posing as a doctor, and as you see La health
- 39:33Speaker 2: Jacket and all the others involved in Matthew Perry's debut.
- 39:37Speaker 1: This is where it leaves me. Those people that are
- 39:39Speaker 1: charged by the fans.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Finally, they're no different than dopers selling a twenty five
- 39:45Speaker 2: dollars rock out on the street, no different.
- 39:50Speaker 1: They just clean up better. Thank you to all of
- 39:54Speaker 1: our guests.
- 39:54Speaker 2: Being with us tonight, highlighting the devastation of addiction. Nancy
- 40:01Speaker 2: Grace signing off goodbye friend,
