This is looking more and more like criminal negligence, with evidence of drug dealing within the hotel and a staff that failed to protect Payne despite his vulnerable state. The suspects likely exploited his condition by supplying drugs and abandoning him when he needed help the most.
The incident was a tragic accident involving consenting adults, with no evidence of forced drug use or intentional harm. Payne had a documented history of substance abuse issues and had recently completed rehabilitation, suggesting personal struggles rather than criminal exploitation.
