Google is a private company. I see nothing wrong with what they did and think they made the right move.

Well, the guy committed a crime. If you know that a crime is being committed, it is your duty to report it.

Google did the right thing but that's a REALLY bad argument. What if the pics were of him smoking a joint instead?

I don't think there's really a duty to report that (although I don't think there's a "duty" to report child abuse either), but I wouldn't say that Google was "wrong" if it passed along pictures of people smoking pot.
