Matthew Perry death: 'Ketamine Queen' gets 15 yrs jail for supplying drugs

A federal judge on Wednesday handed down a sentence of 15 years in prison to a woman who pleaded guilty to selling actor Matthew Perry the ketamine that killed him in 2023. "You're going to have to show some epic resilience," Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett said to Jasveen Sangha, echoing the defendant's words earlier in the hearing about her self-improvement. Citing the unique role Sangha admitted to playing in Perry's death and her broader drug-dealing business, the judge gave the 42-year-old a sentence that will almost certainly be more than all four of her co-defendants combined. The hearing Wednesday in a Los Angeles courtroom was in many ways the pinnacle of the two-and-a-half year investigation and prosecution that followed the overdose death of the 54-year-old actor, whose role as Chandler Bing on NBC's 'Friends' in the 1990s and 2000s made him one of the biggest television stars of the era. Keith Morrison, Perry's stepfather and correspondent for NBC's 'Dateline', told the ju

Rob Reiner's son Nick pleads not guilty in his parents murder case

Nick Reiner, the 32-year-old son of Hollywood luminary Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, pleaded not guilty to two counts of first-degree murder more than two months after their deaths, denying for the first time that he fatally stabbed his parents. Reiner's attorney, Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene, on Monday entered the plea on his behalf as he stood behind glass in an enclosed custody area of the packed Los Angeles courtroom. The third of Rob Reiner's four children, Nick Reiner has been held without bail since his arrest hours after beloved actor-director Reiner and photographer and producer Singer were found dead on December 14 at their home in the upscale Brentwood section of Los Angeles. Reiner appeared in court with a shaved head and light facial hair, wearing brown jail clothes. He talked to his lawyer briefly through the glass before the judge began the hearing. At one point a low door in the enclosure was opened and they crouched down and spoke face-to-face. ..

Paramount eyes new board in hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros Discovery

Paramount Skydance is taking another step in its hostile takeover bid of Warner Bros Discovery, saying that it will name its own slate of directors before the next shareholder meeting of the Hollywood studio. Paramount also filed a suit in Delaware Chancery Court on Monday seeking to compel Warner Bros. to disclose to shareholders how it values its bid and the competing offer from Netflix. Warner Bros. is in the middle of a bidding war between Paramount and Netflix. Warner's leadership has repeatedly rebuffed overtures from Skydance-owned Paramount and urged shareholders to back the sale of its streaming and studio business to Netflix for USD 72 billion. Paramount, meanwhile, has made efforts to sweeten its USD 77.9 billion hostile offer for the entire company. Last week, Warner Bros. Discovery said its board determined Paramount's offer is not in the best interests of the company or its shareholders. It again recommended shareholders support the Netflix deal. David Ellison, the
