Do you think Kurt Cobain was murdered??

I'm doing an investigative report for my journalism course in college, and this was an idea I had to look at this, and see what people thought.

People's repsonses, with their permission, are being used as quotes in the article, so if you'd allow me to voice your opinions in the article, I'd be extremely grateful. I will also email copies of the article when it is finished to those who want it.

I've attached some of my research.

If you've read this, please leave a comment, no matter how small.

Thank you,

Lindsay.

From what I understand of his death, Kurt died of a drug overdose. If this was the case, murder wasn't the cause of death.

he shot himself in the head while he was high, didn't he

this is a lot like all the princess di stuff. it was years ago, & it doesn't matter how they died, all that matters is that they are, & no amount of conspiracy theories are going to change that.

People wanted it to be as tragic as Sid V. But the angst and paranoia built up till he killed himself. Apparantly the guy believed that once all his music was taken from him, he would be killed. So he did the deed himself.

What I am in no doubt in, is that Nirvana were an average band, if Kurt hadn't topped himself, Nirvana would not seem as majestic and hip as they are today. FACT!

I agree with that. I mean, I liked Nirvana, kind of, but thank God that whole Seattle scene is over.

There's no way he could have shot himself to death. He had a truckload of drugs in him, he couldn't have possibly had the composure to shoot himself. There would be his finger prints on the gun. Plus, if you shoot yourself in the head you would have blood pour out of your body like a faucet, as say, for example, Budd Dwyer. When Kurt was found he was only bleeding from one ear and it was only a little bit. It would have been more gruesome if he was completely sober when he was shot.

I firmly believe that someone's behind it, possibly someone faked a suicide. Someone had to be in that room before he was found, his death was no more than "perfect".

I had to do research on it for a paper too, and to me it seems like someone made it to look like a suicide.

there is a rumour that it was someone with connections to the record company who did it. Which would be shocking?
Or more likely that it was a dealer.
