A new forensic report suggests that musician Kurt Cobain, who died in 1994, could have been murdered rather than having committed suicide as previously concluded.
A recent report published in the International Journal of Forensic Science presents new findings that allege musician Kurt Cobain, who died in 1994, may have been a victim of homicide. This contrasts with the initial investigations that determined his death by suicide through a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The forensic scientists cite discrepancies in the autopsy and other evidence collected at the scene that challenge the suicide ruling.
The report outlines various medical and circumstantial factors that appear inconsistent with the idea of a self-inflicted shot. For instance, Cobain's sleeves were rolled up, and his heroin kit was found mere feet from his body, organized in a way that did not align with the chaos typically associated with suicide. The researchers argue that the condition of the drug kit casts doubt on the suicide narrative.
Additionally, the autopsy findings, which noted fluid in Cobain's lungs, bleeding in the eyes, and damage to his liver and brain, further complicate the case. According to the report, these findings deviate from what might be expected in a typical suicide scenario, leading researchers to suggest the need for further investigation into the circumstances surrounding Cobain’s death.
