1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: A new private forensic review challenged the longstanding official finding

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: that Kurt Cobain died by suicide in nineteen ninety four.

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: So you had a team of independent researchers and they say, no,

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: this was a homicide.

5
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, So let's kind of temper the headlines here. This

6
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 2: was done, like you said, by independent researchers. And by

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 2: the way, the local officials in Washington State have no

8
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: interest in reopening this case as far as they're concern.

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 2: This case is completely closed right now. But this was

10
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 2: always an odd situation. And I'm going to try and

11
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 2: explain this. I mean, he did unlive himself. That's how

12
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 2: he passed away, and I'm going to try and explain

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 2: it as best I can without being too gruesome. He

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 2: used He used a shotgun, and if you've ever used

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 2: a shotgun, you know that it would be difficult to

16
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: use that on yourself. Just it's got a long barrel,

17
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: the trigger is really far away, really difficult. So these

18
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 2: conspiracy theories about Kirk Cobain's death have been around since

19
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,919
Speaker 2: he passed away in nineteen ninety four, and this outside

20
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 2: firm has kind of come up with a lot more

21
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,919
Speaker 2: evidence and a pretty good theory that they put forward.

22
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 3: Yet, Yeah, they said that there were aspects of it

23
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 3: like the autopsy, the toxology, and also the details on

24
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 3: the scene are more consistent with foul play and that

25
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 3: it was staged to look like he unlived.

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 2: Himself, and that's something that had been talked about when

27
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 2: he passed away originally in nineteen ninety four. However, this

28
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: is probably just for a theater again, like we saw.

29
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 2: The King County officials there in Washington State have said

30
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 2: they have no plans to officially reopen the Kirk Cobain game.

31
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, the case remains officially closed.
