  • L.A. home where Matthew Perry died sells for $8.55 million

    L.A. home where Matthew Perry died sells for $8.55 million

    Matthew Perry’s former Pacific Palisades home has been sold in an $8.55-million, off-market deal — almost a year to the day since the actor was found dead on the property.

    The four-bedroom, 3,500-square-foot, mid-century modern home was sold to Anita Verma-Lallian, a movie producer and real estate developer based in Scottsdale, Ariz., a representative told The Times. She intends to use the property as a vacation home, her representative said.

    Perry purchased the property in 2020 for $6 million, records show.

    Verma-Lallian bought the home through a trust and was represented by Brooke Elliott Laurinkus of Christie’s International Real Estate Southern California, her representative said. The listing was held by Greg Holcomb of Carolwood Estates, he added.

    Perry was found unresponsive in his backyard hot tub in October 2023. While his death at 54 was initially classified as a drowning, an autopsy revealed that the level of ketamine in his blood was about the same as would be used during general anesthesia.

    In August, Perry’s live-in personal assistant, two doctors and two alleged drug dealers — one known as the “Ketamine Queen” — were charged with providing ketamine that led to Perry’s death.

    Ketamine is a legal medication commonly used as an anesthetic, but is also abused recreationally for its calming and dissociative effects. Federal prosecutors allege that the defendants took advantage of Perry’s addiction to enrich themselves.

    News of Perry’s death was met with an outpouring of grief. The beloved comedic actor starred as Chandler Bing in all 10 seasons of the hit sitcom “Friends.”

    Verma-Lallian received her MBA from USC and is the founder and chief executive of a commercial real-estate consulting firm called Arizona Land Consulting, which specializes in securing and developing land in the Greater Phoenix area.

    In August, she facilitated a $136-million purchase of a 2,100-acre site to house data centers for the AI-powered platform Tract. That same month, she closed two real-estate deals in Buckeye, Ariz., totaling almost $20 million.

    Arizona dispensaries are voluntarily recalling marijuana gummies due to possible contamination of salmonella, a bacterium that, in the event of infection, can cause diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, officials said.

    The product being voluntarily recalled is grape-flavored Cloud 9 gummies from Nirvana Center, with the batch number C9G04102023.

    To date, no illnesses have been reported, Arizona Department of Health Services officials said.

    Symptoms from ingesting salmonella usually start within six hours to six days after infection and last four to seven days. Ingestion can happen inadvertently after handling salmonella-contaminated products.

    Symptoms from ingesting salmonella include:

    • Diarrhea (that can be bloody)
    • Fever
    • Stomach cramps
    • Some people may also have nausea, vomiting, or a headache

    Anyone who has already consumed the product and has any of these symptoms should contact their healthcare provider or seek care in the event of an emergency.

    Patients who have purchased potentially contaminated products should not ingest, inhale, or otherwise consume them, and the Arizona Department of Health Services is advising purchasers to dispose of the products described.

  • Arizona lifts recall on marijuana products after no contamination confirmed – Medical Marijuana Program Connection

    Arizona lifts recall on marijuana products after no contamination confirmed – Medical Marijuana Program Connection

    [ad_1]

    The Arizona Department of Health Services has lifted the voluntary recall of marijuana products, first announced on July 14 due to possible contamination with aspergillus or salmonella, after retesting found no contamination.

    The Arizona Medical Marijuana Act and the Smart and Safe Arizona Act says if a product tests positive, the facility may ask the laboratory to send the original sample to a second laboratory. If that second result is negative, then the facility shall request the sample to be sent to a third lab — which is the result that will stand.

    AZDHS laboratory auditors discovered that potential false negative
    results for contaminants were reported by a licensed marijuana testing
    laboratory.

    The affected products included batches of Caps Frozen Lemon, Twisted Lemonz, and Ghost Train
    Haze as live resin and concentrate, which initially tested positive for
    salmonella, and Cherry Punch in plant and trim form, which initially tested
    positive for aspergillus. Further testing found no comtamination.

    AZDHS has received test results from two separate laboratories for the following products and brands that confirm they are negative for aspergillus and salmonella:

    …

    Cultivator Product Name Batch Number Product Type Implicated Contaminant
    Cannabist Cap’s Frozen Lemon 041323-LR.CFL Live resin, Concentrate Salmonella
    Cannabist Twisted Lemonz 041023-LR.CBN.1 Live resin, Concentrate Salmonella
    Cannabist Cherry Punch 221116-02-40 Plant, Trim Aspergillus
    Cannabist Ghost Train Haze
