Two reader comments about Michael Conoscenti
There's a very interesting post on this murder at this site:

Michael Conoscenti, AKA Damien Michaels was a porn star. His IMDb page has him starring in about 50 adult films. In a Youtube video he brags about his ability to get girls to be in films. A good talent to have if one were to make a living in porn.
But then again, it wasn't the porno business that killed him. In an interview on FoxLA, a producer who claims to have known him is not surprised in the least by Michael's death. He claims that Michaels was hooked on meth and he was "always looking to scam and scheme to do something." If you read through the comments on the linked post above, most of the people there weren't surprised by his death either.
What Damien Michaels was up to in the Valley motel room is unknown but it probably wouldn't be farfetched to think his murder was drug related.
RIP
