Joe admitted to RadarOnline.com that the pair had "partied" and indulged in ecstasy the night before her mysterious death.
Laura was found in her underwear after falling from the eleventh floor of the hotel to the bottom of the stairwell.
The stairwell is at the opposite end of the floor from the ice machine, where Laura's husband has said she went when leaving the room around three in the morning.
