Total speculation, but I am assuming that Camden's mom was struggling with a mental illness. There are quotes in the news from her mother and her ex(?)-bf that she's struggled with depression in the past... I am wondering if maybe she had a new onset of bipolar disorder? I know that it can present itself up to almost 50 years of age.
When my mother was Julianne's age, she was being treated with medication for depression that led to her developing mania and being diagnosed as bipolar. It was quite scary - she was not herself. She heard voices and acted strangely, and we had to take away her car keys because she threatened to drive away and leave our family.
My thought on this is that to all appearances, Camden was loved and cared for before this incident. There has been nothing released to make us think otherwise, and when his description was first put out, even the authorities assumed he had been in a stable situation, nourished, and well-dressed with new shoes. I am wondering if his mom "snapped" and had a mental illness of some sort... I am by no means defending what she did, but it makes me sick to see comments on the internet insinuating she should be killed or worse... She must not have been in her right mind. MOO.
At least if she overdosed him, he hopefully died in peace, and not in a violent way. I hope wherever Camden is now, he knows that thousands of strangers have been following his case and care about him.
