Screaming Violet

We are publicly asking @SeattlePD and @GovBobFerguson to consider reopening the Kurt Cobain case. In 1994, authorities publicly characterized Cobain’s death as self-inflicted before a full forensic analysis could be completed. In 2005, then-SPD Chief Gil Kerlikowske asked former Capt. Neil Low to audit the case. Low was given full access to the case file and concluded the evidence pointed to a homicide and that the case should be reopened. In 2025, a multidisciplinary team published a peer-reviewed study in the International Journal of Forensic Sciences concluding that its analysis of the publicly available evidence was inconsistent with a self-inflicted death and supported homicide. We believe Kurt Cobain’s death deserves to be investigated as a potential homicide, without beginning from the preconceived assumption that it was self-inflicted. Whoever was responsible could be walking free to this day. For those who want to examine the evidence for themselves, see our full investigation here: youtube.com/watch?v=Osb9eF2R…
