Someone targeting the "lost boys" of wealth in LA?
Either something seriously nasty in the high end supply, or this might be an Organized influence situation.
The *rump may be on to something, if those wealthy parents were politically connected or active against a certain right wing group.

But then again, this might be just coincidence - "Forget it, Jake - it's just Chinatown..."

On edit - the Sykes murder appears to be connected with the son's mental illness - however, if the man had been self-medicating, there could still be a link to a common high-end dealer.
