Jasveen Sangha, also referred to as the “Ketamine Queen,” pleaded guilty in connection with the drug-related death of actor Matthew Perry. News broke just a day before Perry's birthday—he would have turned 56 this August 19.

As reported by the Associated Press, the 42-year-old is expected to formally admit to five federal charges in Los Angeles, including one count of distributing ketamine resulting in death or serious bodily injury, this according to the US Department of Justice.

Sangha is the final defendant among five—including licensed medical professionals and Perry’s personal assistant—who federal officials say supplied the actor with ketamine.
