Doctor who sold ketamine to Friends star Matthew Perry is jailed | BBC News
A California doctor who supplied ketamine to Friends star Matthew Perry has been sentenced to 30 months in prison in the US. The actor was 54 when he died from a ketamine overdose in 2023, after years struggling with addiction and depression. Dr Salvador Plasencia was one of five charged in a US federal investigation into how Perry acquired the anaesthetic drug through an underground supply network in Hollywood. The actor's family asked the judge to impose a lengthy prison sentence, calling Plasencia the "most culpable" of the five people charged. They talked about their struggle to understand why he had repeatedly supplied Perry with drugs. Perry’s mother said Dr Plasencia had abused his position, an accusation which the doctor admitted. He told the court: "I failed myself. There is no excuse. I can't undo what's been done. I know that. I should have protected him, as his mother said. I'm just so sorry." Plasencia had pleaded guilty to four counts of distributing ketamine. The charges carried a maximum of 40 years in prison, although prosecutors had asked for a sentence of three years. The four other people charged in the case - including another doctor, his assistant and two people who supplied the ketamine dose that killed Matthew Perry - have also pleaded guilty and are set to be sentenced in the coming months. Best known for playing Chandler Bing in Friends, the sitcom star had spoken publicly for years about his mental health problems and drug addiction.

New images of Jeffrey Epstein's Caribbean island home have been released by Democrats in the US Congress. The pictures and videos show bedrooms, a room with a dentist's chair and masks hanging from a wall, and the words "power" and "deception" written on a chalkboard. The Democrats on the House Oversight Committee call the pictures and videos "never-before-seen". The committee's ranking Democrat, Robert Garcia, says they form a "disturbing look" into Epstein's world and have been released to "ensure public transparency".

Racism, rape and death threats: One weekend of social media abuse in football | BBC News
More than 2,000 extremely abusive social media posts - including death and rape threats - were sent about managers and players in the Premier League and Women's Super League in a single weekend, a BBC investigation has found. The analysis - conducted with data science company Signify - focused on posts made during 10 Premier League and six WSL matches on the weekend of 8 and 9 November, and also found messages including racist slurs, homophobia and threats of violence. Managers were targeted more than players, with 82% of abusive posts made on X, formerly known as Twitter. Premier League bosses Ruben Amorim, Arne Slot and Eddie Howe were the most common targets of abuse in the men's top flight, while Chelsea and their manager Sonia Bompastor faced 50% of all abuse in the WSL.
