Prosecutors have already linked Jasvine Sangha to other 5 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: customer's death, and prosecutors say given the volume of drugs 6 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,160 Speaker 1: Sangha sold, there will likely be more victims. Reportedly, drug 7 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: dealer Eric Fleming acted as a program director at the 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: bel air We Have Red Door and also had a 9 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: resident die of an overdose on his watch. The other defendants, 10 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: doctor Mark Chavez, has agreed to plead guilty to one 11 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: count of conspiracy to distribute ketymine, but is still being investigated. 12 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: Perry's live in assistant, Kenneth Awamasa, and dealer Fleming have 13 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: already pleaded guilty but have not been sentenced. The doctor 14 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: directly implicated in Matthew Pierry's ketemine overdose death is still 15 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: practicing at his Calavass's urgent Care center. While doctor s. 16 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: Alvator Placentia's clinic is open, he must advertise the details 17 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: of his current felony case at the front door Clacentsia 18 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: still has an active medical license. However, the doctor has 19 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 1: had to surrender his DEA registration number and is not 20 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: allowed to prescribe controlled substances. Doctor Mark Chavez has been 21 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,839 Speaker 1: subjected to the same restrictions. As the death investigation continues, 22 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: we look to how it can be prevented from happening again. 23 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: As crimeo lines Holden Zapple tells us, celebrities don't always 24 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: get the best medical care or advice. 25 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: Studies indicate that doctors to VIP patients can quickly lose 26 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 2: the objectivity required when practicing medicine. In awe of a 27 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: patient's fame and perceived power. Some doctors are easily swayed 28 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: to honor requests that are not in their patient's best 29 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: interests Placentia had a duty to turn Perry away with 30 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: the knowledge Perry was on a dangerous path. Instead, he 31 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 2: violated his hippocratic oath to cash in on Perry's addiction. 32 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: Details of Perry's last days in a federal indictment reveal 33 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: it was very clear to doctor Placentia that Perry's ketamine 34 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 2: injections were causing a total loss of awareness. The indictment 35 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 2: documents three separate occasions where Perry froze up after receiving 36 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 2: the medication, with Placentia commenting, let's not do that again. Iwasama, 37 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: who had no medical training outside of Placentia's instruction, likely 38 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 2: did not understand what he was witnessing, and. 39 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: That has celebrity assistants across Hollywood rallying behind Kenneth Awa Masa, 40 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: claiming he is being unfairly scapegoaded in Perry's death. Rowena Chew, 41 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: an activist and former assistant to Harvey Weinstein, wrote the 42 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: New York Times guest essay entitled I was the Celebrity assistant. 43 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: The power and balance is very real today. She spoke 44 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: with Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. 45 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: I'm really making a point about bystanders that don't have 46 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 3: any real power themselves, and they are essentially visible, or 47 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 3: they don't have an identity of their own, and they 48 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: don't have the autonomy to make decisions, and so I 49 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 3: feel that celebrity assistance. I also called them Butler's. I 50 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 3: constantly felt that I was invisible, I had no autonomy, 51 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: frequently didn't really have a name of my own. I 52 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 3: would call people up and stay I'm calling from Harvey 53 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 3: Weinstein's office. But I wouldn't mention my own name because 54 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: I was add insignificant. So when you're in a power 55 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 3: balance where you're that insignificant, I think it is incredibly 56 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 3: difficult to be then thrust into the spotlight and held 57 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 3: responsible for something as serious as somebody's death. I think 58 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 3: that I am attempting to shed light on the fact 59 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 3: that Kenneth Iwamasa may have had absolutely zero choice in 60 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 3: a way that the ordinary person can't understand. He was 61 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 3: a living assistant. The power and balance would have been enormous. 62 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: To hear more from Rowena Chew's conversation with Nancy Grace. 63 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: Tune into Crime Stories with Nancy six and nine pm 64 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: Eastern on Doctor Phild's Mary Street Media, or tune in 65 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: two Crime Stories with Nancy Grace's podcast on your favorite 66 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: podcasting app. More crime and justice news after this, An 67 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: eighteen year old Minnesota man allegedly stabbed his fourteen year 68 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: old girlfriend at least thirteen times before slitting her throat, 69 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: hugging her, then stabbing her one more time in the back. 70 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: Isaac Arthur Aren't, eighteen, is now charged with second degree 71 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: murder in the death of Jayleen Walker.
