Kurt Cobain was murdered – new forensic probe

Independent experts have challenged the 1994 suicide ruling after reviewing autopsy and crime scene evidence.

Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain was the victim of homicide and did not kill himself, according to media reports citing a new investigation.

The grunge superstar died on April 5, 1994, aged 27, in his Seattle home. The official police probe concluded that Cobain had died of a shotgun wound to the head and ruled his death a suicide.

The murder conclusion follows a review of autopsy findings and crime scene materials by a team of independent forensic scientists, launched and financed by Nirvana fan Michelle Wilkins, the leader of the “Who Killed Kurt?” research group.

The evidence suggests that Cobain, who had struggled with a drug addiction, was incapacitated by a heroin overdose before being shot and the scene staged, Wilkins told the Daily Mail on Tuesday. Autopsy findings showed brain and liver necrosis consistent with oxygen deprivation from overdose, she said.

“The necrosis of the brain and liver happens in an overdose,” Wilkins said. “It doesn’t happen in a shotgun death.”

The team noted that Cobain’s left hand, wrapped around the gun’s barrel, was clean of blood, and blood staining on his shirt hem suggested that his body may have been moved. Investigators also concluded that the shotgun would not eject a shell with his hand on the forward barrel, yet a spent shell lay opposite the expected ejection direction.

The Sun also cited an alleged eyewitness who claimed he saw Cobain “being manhandled by three men into the greenhouse” before hearing a gunshot half an hour later.

The team has called on Seattle authorities to change Cobain’s cause of death to “undetermined” and reopen the investigation.



Public challenges to the suicide ruling emerged within days of Cobain’s death. Critics claim the rock star could not have injected the lethal heroin doze and then shot himself.

Cobain was survived by his wife, musician Courtney Love, and their daughter, Frances Bean, who was 20 months old at the time.

As Cobain died without a will, his estate passed in full to Love and the child. At the time of his death, the estate was valued at approximately $50 million, comprising songwriting royalties, publishing rights, and personal assets, equivalent to about $109 million in today’s money.

  1. Read the books about this- he was assassinated for not towing the line like a good Shabbos-Goy should have.
    Same with Michael Jackson & Prince, who were going to release albums that would have awoken people to the dangers of a Zionist-led Noahide Law enforced by Talmudism that was and is planned to go global!
    & Charlie Kirk’s wife is a Mossad asset and an arranged marriage so that Israel could use Charlie to gain support for Israel via Christian Actors.

  2. If it was a lethal dose then why bother with the assumed shotgun set up? People OD on drugs all the time. Suffice to say some people need to get a life of their own and let go of conspiracy theories that will never be dis/proven after this span of time.

      • Well depends if he died immediately or not. Hitler took lethal cyanide before shooting himself (this is just a wholly unrelated example BTW).That said if we assume this was a set up to look like suicide there was no need for this extra step.

      • The ‘boys’ moved-in after listening in via planted listening devices knowing the he had passed-out from his drugs, and then shotgunned his ass to make sure he wouldn’t come out with his discoveries.
        The shotgun was not in a holdable position, and the shell casing was found opposite of the ejection chamber.
        Courtney Love’s grandpa is J3wish…
