I understand you point of personal responsibility, but it is irrelevant in this case, as he was detained and in the care of some one else.
If someone had a bad lifestyle and bad choices, a drug addict, wife beater, serial criminal and he ended up in hospital due to complications with his drug use.
He would have been fine, just needed 48hrs in hospital and he would have walked out, he may have got clean and gone on to be a good citizen but the doctor made an error he should been able to avoid as a professional and as someone that is trusted to care for.
He administered a lethal dose of anaesthetic and killed him.
Should that doctor be prosecuted?
