The cops did it.
Had they not beat him down causing him to beome a TV celebrity, he wouldn't have been able to afford a pool to drown in.

I am guessing that we will find out drugs or alcohol were a big part of this.

Dr. Drew called it when he was on his show. If he didn't get sober he would end up dead soon..............

If the autopsy comes back positive for drugs, he did it to himself.
Unless, they can prove someone forced him to do the drugs.

I hope everything is clear, we don't need another riot on our hands.
