Somebody sold Doll some fake cocaine because they knew there would be nothing he could do about it. He was probably whacked out of his mind on aspirin the night of the murder. I would kill someone for getting me to snort aspirin, maybe this explain everything. Still, I hope he really did it if he's going to serve the time. Roxanna, he would have been caught with chocolate but if he had packed some fudge you can bet your life no one would have licked their fingers to see for sure that it really was fudge.
