Official manner of death has to be one of the following: natural, accident, suicide, homicide, undetermined.

Most drug overdoses are ruled as accidental because they are presumed to be unintentional deaths — the users did not intend to die. The only time a drug overdose is ruled a suicide is when the deceased leaves a suicide note or there is explicit evidence of suicidal ideation immediately before the act.

If the drug dealers are known, they can theoretically be prosecuted for the death. But that rarely happens in L.A. County if the victim is not a high-profile rapper or a young teen on TV news.
