Nearly 30 years after the death of Kurt Cobain, a man named Tom Grant claims to have published the official autopsy report on his Twitter account. Grant, a private investigator, posted a link to a PDF file of the report on his website, stating that it is the first time the report has been made public.
Tom Grant has been investigating Cobain’s death since 1994 when the musician took his own life. While Grant has drawn his own conclusions about the case, the focus now is on the document he has released.
Grant asserts that the report is authentic, but he does not disclose how he obtained it. The original autopsy was never released due to Washington state laws that prohibit the disclosure of such information. However, they do provide these documents to the family.
The purported autopsy report can be viewed online, and if it is genuine, it offers an interesting read for Nirvana fans and others. While we won’t go into the graphic details, the report confirms what has long been known – that Cobain died by suicide using a shotgun.
The report also mentions the substances found in Cobain’s system at the time of his death, suggesting a mixture of substances. However, the authenticity of the report has not been officially verified as King County officials declined to comment, citing Washington law.
Kurt Cobain left behind his wife, Courtney Love, and their daughter Frances Bean. He was only 27 years old.
