Dr. Salvador Plasencia: The ‘Moron’ Accusation
Dr. Salvador Plasencia, a Santa Monica physician, has found himself in serious legal trouble. He’s been charged with a slew of offenses, including conspiracy to distribute ketamine and falsifying documents related to the investigation. Plasencia, who was known among his peers as “Dr. P,” allegedly used encrypted messages and coded language to discuss drug transactions. He reportedly referred to Perry as a “moron” in his texts, a detail that has added a controversial layer to the case.
Plasencia has pleaded not guilty to all charges, claiming he acted with the best medical intentions. However, his legal troubles are far from over. If convicted, he faces up to 10 years for each ketamine-related count and up to 20 years for falsifying documents.

Dr. Mark Chavez: The Fraudulent Prescriptions
Dr. Mark Chavez, a former ketamine clinic operator from San Diego, has agreed to plead guilty to conspiracy charges. Chavez allegedly wrote fraudulent prescriptions to obtain ketamine, which was then distributed by Plasencia. He faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
