Private Forensic Team Disputes Official Findings in Prominent ’90s Musician’s Death, Report Says

A private forensic team found multiple inconsistencies suggesting homicide in Kurt Cobain's 1994 death, but Seattle and King County officials maintain the original suicide ruling.

  • On re-examination, a private forensic team concluded Kurt Cobain's death was a homicide, according to The Daily Mail, after three days of review.
  • Autopsy findings showed signs consistent with overdose and organ necrosis, while investigators flagged a neatly organized heroin kit and unusually clean scene.
  • Investigators found receipts for gun and shells in his pocket, shells lined at his feet, and a suicide note whose last four lines differ, suggesting possible tampering.
  • Authorities maintain the Seattle Police Department says its detective concluded Cobain died by suicide and will not reopen the case without new evidence.
  • The private sector forensic team alleges assailants forced a heroin overdose to incapacitate Cobain before staging the scene, as the team reconstruction suggests.
