i know you peeps dont like courtney but its an insult to kurt(not to mention courtney) to suggest the woman he loved would betray him in such a way. it makes him out to be a fool. and he wasnt.

It is illuminating, to say the least.
and so is philip dick fiction but i dont believe the axis powers won WW2. or even think it was possible.
what a mindfuck for frances this must all be. strangers saying her mother killed her father. and despite her not believing it... it still hurts to hear it.

I empathize with Frances. But, speaking of mindfucks, how about being raised by Courtney Love?
perhaps frances has more empathy for her mother than we could ever hope to imagine anyone being capable of.
btw i ordered love and death as well as who killed kurt cobain?

You seem to know just what you are talking about - refreshing. Didn't Kurt swear that he didn't have a gun though? I'm out of my depth here, knowing little about Frances, her mother or father. I'll leave that to the Seattleites to figure out.
edit: btw my mistake; I thought you meant Love and Death by Woody Allen! Genius - I preferred his early funny ones myself tho.

First off pretty much most of the major evidence they have against the suicide is the fact that Cobain wasn't acting rationally. The evidence there is the things like why did he load more than 1 shell in the shot gun and why didn't he just OD to kill himself. Except the guy was a hard core herion addict so it is no surprise to me that he might not be acting as rationally as someone who wasn't on drugs.
Also the cops in Seattle aren't morons. If someone dies under even slightly suspicous circumstances, they are going to interview everyone who stood to make money off their death, including Courtney. I have seen The People vs Larry Flynt. Courtney Love isn't that great an actress. If she was invloved and the cops asked her about it (which I find it hard to belive they wouldn't) I don't believe she could convince them that she wasn't. Also if she wanted her husband dead, I don't believe she could pull off the sad speech she made at that memorial at Seattle Center.
People who are about to commit suicide can also act pretty weird, or really not weird, but considering what they're gonna do...
I remember a case in Norway where this girl went missing, and there was a 7-11 cam that was the last anyone had seen of her. She was buying batteries for her mp3-player or something. turns out, she went straight from there, and out into the woods, where she was found. And as usual with suicides, the media shut up pretty fast after that.
Point is, after they decide to off themselves, they can go on for some time like always and follow their routine. Until they reach the when and where they have decided on. These people aren't really rational, even if they may follow their habits irght until the end.
Now, add a known problem with drugs into the mix as well, I'm not at all surprised of such small details. He loaded two rounds, he may have just been going on auto while loading it. He was already ODing? Maybe he didnt know that, or he REALLY wanted to make sure he didnt fail.
I've read about the whole thing, including a great biography by Richard Cross (I think). I dont find it unbelievable at all that he did kill himself.
Peace

i don't know what happened and we will never know....
but...it wasn't just that more than 1 shell was loaded into the shot gun but how can a person purchase a shot gun, fully load it, stick it in their mouth, pull the trigger and not leave a single finger print anywhere on it??
Courtney also lied about when she spoke to Kurt, she said she hadn't spoken to him for days or something but her hotel records show she spoke to him for over an hour the day he split from rehab, why lie about that?
it wouldn't have to be a case that the police were morons but Courtney had been playing up the 'suicidal' aspect....the cops come in and see him shot in the head, gun near by, suicide note (which some experts have said parts were not written by Kurt, but who knows, maybe his penmanship changed when he got more high) it would seem like a logical conclusion he killed himself....
it also came out later that Kurt had contacted his lawyer about a divorce and there is the fact that they did have a prenuptial agreement

Also, I've never done heroin, but I would be surprised if it changed your penmanship....maybe make it messier, but physically change the pen strokes and the way you form letters? Seems unlikely to me....
Cops aren't just going to look at a scene and go "well that's that then" and then go home. They have to do their due diligence, especially in a case where someone dies violently and someone else stands to inherit their fortune. And like I said if she was involved Courtney Love is not anywhere close to a good enough actress to convince average dectives that she wasn't (not to mention the people at the memorial).
There was very little blood in the room above the greenhouse, where the body was found. When a living person is shot in the head, they tend to lose a lot of blood. This indicates the body was dead prior to the gunshot wound, self-inflicted or not. Just saying.
And the note was written by two different hands, one left and one right. The first portion, written by a left hand, speaks only of no longer feeling the desire to perform. It is more or less a "resignation" from the band, and from professional music.
The latter portion, written by a right hand, is where we find the only phrases that would be considered consistent with a "suicide note." Just saying.
By no means am I trying to convince anyone of anything. But, if a person who hasn't made up their mind wants to find out more (even if what they are searching for cannot be known), I see no point in simply shutting them down.
I'm just here for the discussion, for I have much to learn.
Thank You
If she didn't kill him she sure wasn't a very loving spouse with helping him get better. This i believe is why most people are against her...I think the question should be asked was Kurt a fool or just not well suported by the person that "loved" him
Not cool, man.
"So I made a mistake, ONE mistake, can't a man start over?! DO I HAVE TO KEEP PAYING?! Maybe I should make another mistake... maybe I should make two."
and how the fuck would you know that?? you were privy to their marriage were you?? have you ever dealt with a partner who is an addict or depressive or both?? who has to cope with debilitating pain as well??? have you any clue what youre talking about or has your hatred of courtney blinded you to any sense or reason?
kurt was as much a fool as any of us are.

Don't forget she was a fucking junkie too. They got high together all the time. I read the book Heavier Than Heaven by Charles Cross and in it he details numerous occasions where she and Kurt shot up together. Why would she be a sensible one to try and make him stop. Also, there is proof through reciepts and paperwork that proves Kurt bought the shotgun used to kill himself 3 week (or months, I can't recall exactly without referencing) in a Seattle gun store. He talked about killing himself all the time to Kris and Dave which mostly was laughed off cause he was high all the time. This was inevitable. I personally believe he killed himself. But even if he hadn't, he would have OD'd with all the heavy drugs he did toward the end of his life.

i never really got the hype for nevermind but i think in utero blew that and anything hole did. anyway, didn't kurt help write a lot of the stuff on what became 'live through this' and even recorded backing tracks and vocals?

Who cares he's dead.
This is a great book, read it a few years ago. I am just conflicted about the author. he says he will turn over this mountain of evidence he is witholding if King County will re-open the case. But without some evidence, why would they re-open it. Doesn't make much sense. The case he makes is very convincing and says he has the proof, but won't share it.
She was an addict like him, she might of known he skipped when he wasn't supposed to. It's not unreasonable to think she lied to protect him.
All the supposed 'evidence' that points towards Courtney is circumstantial bollocks which people believe to be true because one guy says so, and they also happen to hate Courtney. Kind of reminds me of the West Memphis Three case, not a scrap of real evidence, yet the Bible-thumping locals wanted someone to blame, and who better than a devil-worshipping loner? People don't like Courtney which some how enables them to believe that she could be capable of murder. If people genuinely had a belief that Courtney could be responsible because of her behaviour, they would probably be better off looking into her childhood, which more than explains the adult she became. No real surprises at all - a fucked up childhood, nine times out of ten will lead to a fucked up adulthood.
Is it so hard to believe that a manic depressive with a gun-fascination, crippling heroin addiction and complete inability to handle fame, would kill themselves?
hasnt driven ed to suicide so why would you think itd be kurts reason???
