You guys don't know much about drugs.
It is very common to OD from heroin.
This wasn't murder of any kind, and it only even got charged as manslaughter because the deceased was white and wealthy and the other junky at the scene happened to be a hooker and the case made headline news.
So Mr Google guy likes to hire hookers, he likes when they bring party favors. He probably normally does coke or meth, and after getting into vicodin and oxys (helpful for the comedowns from uppers) decides he wants to up his game and try out smack. He probably hadn't done it more than once or twice before. Maybe he had only smoked it, which is far less potent. So he decides to try smack IV for the possibly first time, and since he is a pussy he has the hooker inject him. The combination of his low tolerance with a potent batch of heroin produced an overdose. The person who saw him overdose decides to get the fuck out and run. This happens everyday all across the USA. It rarely ever results in any kind of prosecution.

Chances are if you die from heroin it's because the dosage was way too high, there was another major drug interaction or it was tampered with. Based on the story it doesn't sound like there were any other drugs involved.
