Nearly three decades after the tragic death of Nirvana's frontman, an independent group of forensic experts has identified discrepancies in the official version of Kurt Cobain's demise. They believe that physical evidence and the condition of the musician's body may indicate a violent nature of death, shedding new light on the events of that evening.
Kurt Cobain's tragic death in 1994 was officially ruled a suicide. However, independent experts Michelle Wilkins and Brian Burnett, along with other forensic specialists, conducted a re-analysis of the case materials and discovered a number of critical discrepancies.
In their opinion, the nature of the internal organ damage and the unusually clean hands of the musician at the time the body was discovered do not match the typical picture of a self-inflicted gunshot. The experts believe that these details may indicate a violent nature of death and a possible staging. "The facts that have been ignored for decades suggest that Cobain may have been murdered," said representatives of the group.
At the same time, official authorities remain steadfast. The King County Medical Examiner's Office and the Seattle Police Department emphasized that there is no basis for reopening the investigation, and the existing evidence continues to support the original verdict.
Forensic experts also draw attention to the level of illegal substances in the musician's body. According to an applied forensic expert, the concentration of drugs was three times higher than the lethal dose, which in itself could have led to a fatal outcome. Nevertheless, correlating this fact with other discrepancies raises new questions about the true nature of Cobain's death.
