A newly surfaced “autopsy report” wants to reveal all the details about Kurt Cobain’s death. The Nirvana singer died by suicide on April 5, 1994; he shot himself with a shotgun. However, rumors are still circulating today that the then 27-year-old could also have been murdered – one particularly bizarre rumor states that his wife Cortney Love ordered his murder. Love denies this and there have been no police investigations in this direction.
A private detective with a certain reputation, Tom Grant, uploaded a PDF to his X account on Wednesday (January 26, 2024) and even published a download option of the “autopsy report”. In it, Grant writes in advance: “I always said back in the mid-1990s: ‘There will be nothing…’ and now I can say: ‘There is nothing…’ in the autopsy report that could not be duplicated by a staged suicide. In fact, there is something in the report that suggests a likely collusion to perpetuate a deliberate lie by the medical staff at the King County Medical Examiner’s Office.” So the private investigator joins in discussions that someone had a hand in the death of the Grunge legend might have had.
Grant even calls the report a “big lie” and Cobain’s farewell letter a “resignation letter.” He simply wanted to get out of the music business: “Imagine if Kurt Cobain had left Seattle and moved away to be alone or to work with someone like Michael Stipe, at least for a certain period of time. Reading this note now, it makes much more sense as a “Retirement Letter” than as a “Suicide Note.” Not to mention the strange lines at the end of the letter. An unbiased person can easily see that the “letter” mentioned is clearly written to Cobain’s fans telling them why he is getting out of the music business. Music This coroner’s report has contributed nothing new to this investigation, other than a major, additional lie.”
The document lists a mixture of various substances that doctors say was found in Cobain’s body. According to the paper published by Grant, traces of morphine, codeine, diazepam, nordiazepam and noracetylmorphine were discovered in Cobain’s blood.
Tom Grant doesn’t want to explain how he got the “autopsy report.” Washington state law prevented publication. TMZ attempted to verify the authenticity of this report – but King County officials declined to comment.
