Matthew Perry's death wasn't enough to shut down the so-called Ketamine Queen's drug den.
Prosecutors allege Jasveen Sangha continued to shill her deadly product, which contributed to the Friends star's demise, for months after his death and attempted to cover up her crimes, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
Court documents accused Sangha of 'engaging in a half-decade long' illegal drug operation.
In newly filed court documents, prosecutors accused Sangha, 41, of "engaging in a half-decade long drug business".
The 41-year-old allegedly sold the Emmy-nominated actor a batch of ketamine on October 24. Perry was discovered unresponsive in a hot tub at his Los Angeles home on October 28, the same day prosecutors claimed Sangha scrambled to destroy evidence linking her to the sitcom star.
Five people are charged in connection to Perry's overdose death.
Court filings revealed Sangha told Erik Fleming, a street dealer who allegedly acted as the liaison between Sangha's operation and Perry, to "delete all" their communications on the messaging app Signal.
Meanwhile, Fleming allegedly asked if "K" remains in "your system or is it flushed out".
Sangha was arrested in March 2023 in separate criminal case following a raid at the "Sangha Stash House" in North Hollywood, California. Law enforcement agents recovered "multiple pounds of methamphetamine pills, 79 vials of ketamine, fraudulently obtained pharmaceutical pills and other illegal drugs".
Agents also uncovered videos of Sangha "cooking" ketamine on her electronic devices, a scale covered in drug residue and a handgun registered to her boyfriend. Following her March arrest, the Ketamine Queen was released from custody after posting $100,000 bond.
