There's a development in the Matthew Perry death case. So, you know, two doctors have been charged
00:06
With supplying him with this ketamine illegally
00:11
One of them, Dr. Mark Chavez, just copped a plea. So he has pled guilty
00:16
But in return and obviously he's looking for a lighter sentence if he's sentenced at all
00:23
He has agreed to cooperate
00:26
With the feds in the prosecution of the remaining two people. Five people were charged
00:32
Three have now pled guilty, copped pleas. Right. And now there are two people left. The Ketamine Queen. The Ketamine Queen and Dr. Placentia
00:41
Dr. Placentia, in case you don't remember, is the one who sent Dr. Chavez the text saying
00:48
How much will this moron pay for ketamine?
00:52
I think that is why he has become a big fish for the feds and I think that's why
01:00
that Mark Chavez
01:02
Was able to get a plea bargain from the feds because they want to go after this guy for that comment.
01:09
Because it's so callous. It's so callous. And this is bad news and tell me if I'm wrong Harvey
01:13
This is bad news for Placentia here because like you said Chavez is going to cooperate
01:18
You would think he would know everything that was going on
01:21
I mean, these guys were allegedly plotting together to get every dollar they could out of Matthew. Yeah
01:25
Yeah, I'm a Babcock here. When I saw this happen, I'm thinking what is Dr. Placentia gonna say to defend himself?
01:32
Considering the fact that he's pleading not guilty and the guy on the receiving end of this damning text is now pleading guilty
01:39
I mean, what is Placentia and his attorney gonna come up with to try to get him off the hook?
01:43
They've got now three other people who have all turned fed states witness and
01:49
They're gonna go after the ketamine Queen and dr. Placentia. So I think they're in a heap of trouble by the way
01:56
We have a documentary that dropped recently on Hulu
02:00
called Matthew Perry and the secret celebrity drug ring and I got to tell you if you
02:06
Want to be shocked at how Hollywood works with drugs watch this documentary
02:13
I've been here from Long Island
02:14
And I believe that March that was his guilty plea is certainly a step in the right direction here
02:20
Oftentimes we've heard this story before in Hollywood where a celebrity dies of an untimely death
02:25
But we rarely see their perpetrators stepping forward and taking accountability
02:29
And I think that this shows a clear pivot in Hollywood's accountability level for sure
02:35
Yeah
02:35
the problem is does it stick or do people get scared for a while and then it comes back to the way it used to
02:41
Be and that's what's happened in the past. Yep
