Seattle Police and Medical Examiner Refute New Kurt Cobain Homicide Theory
"According to the tabloid, "an unofficial private sector team of forensic scientists has put fresh eyes on Cobain's autopsy and crime scene materials," adding that independent researcher Michelle Wilkins worked with the team and claimed, "This is a homicide. We've got to do something about this.""
"Wilkins cited a peer-reviewed paper that presented 10 points of evidence suggesting Cobain was "confronted by one or more assailants who forced a heroin overdose to incapacitate him, before one of them shot him in the head, placed the gun in his arms and left behind a forged suicide note.""
""There are things in the autopsy that go, well, wait, this person didn't die very quickly of a gunshot blast,' Wilkins further told the tabloid, pointing to organ damage associated with oxygen deprivation. 'The necrosis of the brain and liver happens in an overdose. It doesn't happen in a shotgun death.'""
""In the death examination for Kurt Cobain, the King County Medical Examiner's Office worked with the local law enforcement agency, conducted a full autopsy, and followed all of its procedures in coming to the determination of the manner of death as a suicide," a King County Public Health spokesperson told . "We're not able to provide specific details about what informed our conclusion, as the autopsy records are private under state law and can only be released by the next of kin.""
A private, unofficial team of forensic scientists and independent researcher Michelle Wilkins claim Kurt Cobain's death was a homicide, citing a peer-reviewed paper that lays out ten points of evidence. The researchers allege assailants forced a heroin overdose to incapacitate Cobain, then shot him, staged the scene, and left a forged suicide note. Wilkins points to organ necrosis consistent with oxygen deprivation and argues the brain and liver damage indicates overdose rather than instantaneous shotgun death. Seattle police and the King County Medical Examiner's Office maintain a suicide determination after a full autopsy, note records are private, and say conclusions can be revisited if new evidence appears.
