Re-Opening The Kurt Cobain Case

[mdc1mdc11]

According to Michael Stipe, Kurt wanted to expound on the direction of the MTV Unplugged and do an acoustic album with a lot of string instruments. He wanted to move away from the grunge sound. Stipe was going to record a demo with Kurt and had a plane ticket, a car set to pick him up, but at the last minute he called and said he can't come.

Another point to bring up is that Kurt suffered from chronic stomach pain, which was never diagnosed. His great-uncle committed suicide by a gunshot to his abdomen. Another great uncle of his killed himself with a gunshot to the head. There were rumors that other relatives and ancestors also committed suicide - adding to the legend that Courtney Love referred to as the Cobain curse. Anyways, the more I research this, the more it seems like he did pull the trigger. Police ceased 3 weapons and 25 boxes of ammunition when Kurt was threatening to kill himself a few weeks before his death. Then he went out to buy a shotgun with a friend, because he "needed protection from trespassers" coming onto his property seems hard to believe.

another cowardly addict that did not get help and had the means to do so, committed suicide and left a wife and child behind to suffer and clean it up along with fans. Just like that actor a few months back, another f'ing loser that knew exactly what he was doing and left a wife and daughter.

Society needs to stop worshiping these fools just because they have a hit album or movie.

Well, scientifically it's impossible that he committed suicide. There isn't one case in the history of the U.S. where someone had 3 times the lethal dose of heroin and killed themselves. You'd be unconscious in a second with a dose like that. You wouldn't be able to hold up a gun and shoot yourself. The prints were also wiped off the gun. The "suicide note" was really a letter to his fans saying he was quitting the business. It never even mentions the word suicide. The last few lines are definitely penned by someone else...there's a huge disparity in the writing and it's written much larger than the rest of it.

The ah-ha moment to me comes when Courtney Love's lawyer and godmother to her child, finds a note inside her backpack (that Courtney left behind at her house for a week) where she was clearly practicing Kurt's writing, letter by letter. It contained another note inside with the words "Get Arrested", which she had staged for the press prior to his death.

where did you obtain this data?

I cant tell you how many Opiate overdose cases I investigated where the victim ingested/injected "lethal" amounts of opiates into their system and survived.
When a scientist and or doctor use that term "lethal", they are comparing it to what would happen if the average man took that level of drug. They dont use it to describe someone who has been abusing opiates every 4 hours every day for years and years. So you have to take the term "lethal" as more tongue and cheek than anything else.

Cobain & Staley the fathers of grunge had everything they could want except the ability to handle life on lifes terms.


Dead & buried ... end of story.

I have never understood how AIC gets labeled "Grunge". They are a great hard rock band that happens to be from the same area that the genre originated. It seems really unfair to lump them in with a bunch of Grand Pa sweater wearing hacks that never put in the time to learn their instruments.
