Assistant Sentenced in Perry Death

Assistant Sentenced in Perry Death

Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description

Matthew Perry’s personal assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa, has been sentenced to three years and five months for playing a deadly role in the “Friends” star’s ketamine overdose — even injecting him with the drug. The judge called his actions reckless, not just on the day of death but days before, rejecting defense claims of loyalty as justification. Perry’s family, including his mother and sisters, voiced deep disappointment, blaming Iwamasa more than Perry himself. Prosecutors sought the sentence, and while the judge agreed on the length, she noted Iwamasa didn’t abuse trust or show malicious intent — though his behavior was clearly harmful. Iwamasa, paid $150K annually, will also pay a $10K fine and serve two years probation, reporting to prison July 17.
