Who Killed Kurt OFFICIAL

🚨 Time to set the record straight:

I wasn’t planning to share this, but too many people have been asking questions about Joe Burns. So here it is: a private email from Chris Todd where he admits he’s going to fabricate people and events for his “book.” He even calls it a Roman à clef — meaning fiction mixed with real names. Translation: he’s lying on purpose.

To be absolutely clear:

• This has nothing to do with Joe Burns. Joe has been honest about what he saw.

• No, we do not believe Mark Lanegan was there.

• No, Kurt was not “hit over the head” with anything. We’ve checked this with multiple forensic pathologists: if that had happened, it would be obvious in the autopsy. It isn’t.

The only reason I’m posting this private email is because apparently nobody wants to Google Todd’s name and see that he’s already being sued for faking another book on Amazon. That’s the caliber we’re dealing with.

Meanwhile, here’s what’s actually happened in this case: our 54-page multidisciplinary forensic journal — toxicology, ballistics, crime scene, and autopsy evidence — has been submitted for peer review. That’s real science. And unlike Todd’s lie-for-profit project, we’re giving ours away for free so the public can see the truth.

Don’t let this case get buried under fairy tales. Stick with the evidence. That’s what matters.

* I'm not sure why I can't post any photo format other than square, so the email had to be cropped. I will do a screen recording of the entire email and post it in Shorts within the next day or two so everyone can see the entire email without it being cut into two pieces.

Look at Kurt’s shoes.

In every photo of him—whether he’s on stage, writing, or just hanging out—you’ll notice the same thing: he tied his laces right down the middle. Always.

But in the crime scene photo? The knots are pulled off to the sides, like someone tied them from above. That’s not Kurt’s way. It doesn’t fit.

It’s a small detail, but small details are where the truth leaks out.

The Shotgun Fairy Theory: Why It Doesn’t Fly Here



People still float this bizarre story — that Kurt’s friends supposedly walked in, found him overdosed, and then decided the best way to “protect” a dealer was to shoot him in the mouth. As if Seattle cops in the ’90s were out here kicking down doors for every dead junkie (they weren’t; history shows it again and again). The autopsy shows just how impossibly narrow that window would’ve been, yet this theory asks us to believe someone went from “Oh no, he’s OD’ing” to “Let’s stage a cinematic suicide” in under 48 hours.

This theory seems especially popular among people on the fringes of the Seattle music scene — folks who may have known Kurt loosely, or knew him through others. They don’t buy the suicide narrative, but for some reason they can’t bring themselves to accept the far more obvious motive: money. Spousal homicide for financial gain is one of the oldest reasons for murder in the book — older than rock and roll — and infinitely more reasonable than this bizarre cover-up scenario.

And that’s the word: cinematic. A shotgun blast to the head isn’t interpretive. It isn’t subtle. It’s cinematic. And that was the point. Courtney herself once said: “If you OD, people think you’re a junkie. If you blow your head off with a shotgun, they think you mean it.” That isn’t just a stray remark; it’s a blueprint for how the public would interpret Kurt’s death. She even admitted she’d considered doing it the same way but didn’t want to give “them” that image, that satisfaction. She knew exactly how powerful the visual was. She knew it shuts down debate. So when Kurt turns up dead with a shotgun blast to the head? She gets exactly what she said people would believe: “He meant it.”

But the evidence shows the opposite: Kurt couldn’t have meant it — because the science proves he never even had the chance.


TL;DR: The autopsy shows the heroin dose and gunshot were part of the same lethal event — not separated by hours or days.


You can read the rest on my Substack (it’s free). It was too long to post here in its entirety.

BREAKING: New Forensic Report Declares Kurt Cobain’s Death a Homicide

** PLEASE SHARE

A multidisciplinary team of forensic experts has released a 54-page preprint re-examining the 1994 death of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. The report — now available on Zenodo and hosted on WhoKilledKurt.org — draws on newly released autopsy and firearms reports, original Seattle Police Department photos, and advanced forensic analyses.

The paper is currently under peer review with a leading forensic science journal. A preprint version has been released for immediate public access and transparency.

The authors — including forensic scientist Bryan Burnett, Italian pathologist Gabriele Rotter, firearms expert Michael Gregory, toxicologist Pietro Zuccarello, forensic pathologist Cataldo Raffino, and Michelle Wilkins — study coordinator, Cobain historian, and former music journalist — conclude that Cobain did not die by suicide but was the victim of a staged homicide.

The study details evidence of a lethal heroin injection inconsistent with self-administration, ballistic findings that contradict the official suicide scenario, and bloodstain patterns proving Cobain’s body was moved postmortem.

This marks the most significant forensic challenge to the official narrative in three decades — a case once ruled “suicide,” now re-framed as homicide.

🔎 Quick clarification: This isn’t a legal ruling or a court order. It’s a forensic research paper written by independent experts. Think of it like a scientific journal article — it presents the evidence, analysis, and conclusions based on toxicology, ballistics, handwriting, etc. The official ruling is still suicide; this paper lays out why that doesn’t hold up.

Please share this far and wide! We can’t let the media off the hook ⚡️⚡️⚡️

* Not all of this is correct but it’s a great start. We don’t believe Frances has anything to do with the letters we’ve received. End of Music is run by Courtney and the lawyer who has been emailing us.

* We are not writing a book at this point. That’s a pinkie promise. Maybe someday we’ll write about our experiences but we are not working on or publishing any books at this time.

Who Killed Kurt OFFICIAL

Apparently, caring deeply about getting justice for someone you never met is a crime now.

So for everyone who says I didn’t know Kurt and should “stay in my lane”…

This one’s for you.

You’re Right, I Didn’t Know Kurt Cobain.

I met him in the wreckage. That’s where the ones who “knew” him — the ones who were supposed to care for him — left him.

“You Didn’t Know Him.”

You’re right. I didn’t.
Not officially, anyway.

Which is strange, considering I’ve played punk rock on the same stage he did. I’ve wandered through the halls of Sub Pop, talked to many people who knew him, sat in the places where his ghost still lingers. A psychic once told me there was a moment — years ago — when we were supposed to meet. Before his life got rewritten by violence. Before mine got rerouted by grief I didn’t yet understand.

I don’t know if that part’s true.

But I do know this:

The more time I’ve spent with his story — not the headlines, but the real story — the more I feel like I do know him. Not in a mystical, “I’m channeling him” kind of way. In a human way.

The way a writer comes to know a character.
The way an investigator starts hearing the voice of the person they’re trying to get justice for.
The way grief lets you hold someone close, even if you never got the chance in life.


“How can You Say You Know Him?”

People sometimes ask how I can claim to “know” Kurt Cobain when I never met him. And to be clear — I’ve never said I do know him, not in the way people mean when they ask that. But I’ve spent a long time listening. And I tend to pick up on things other people miss.

I’m a highly sensitive person — and that’s not just about emotion, it’s about perception.
I notice inconsistencies. I feel undercurrents.
I track what isn’t being said just as much as what is.

That same sensitivity makes me a good investigator. Because when you’re dealing with a case this layered — one full of conflicting statements, missing time, emotional manipulation, and cultural distortion — it’s not just about following the evidence.

It’s about knowing when something feels off, and having the persistence to find out why.
Honestly, it’s probably the same reason I’m good at what I do in skincare.

So no, I didn’t know Kurt personally.
But I’ve spent countless hours with his voice, his handwriting, the gaps in his timeline — and the way his story has been twisted to fit other people’s narratives.

He stopped being a myth pretty early on.
What emerged instead was a human being — messy, brilliant, in pain — who was never truly seen for who he was.

I don’t pretend to speak for him.
But I do believe I understand parts of him.
Because I’ve been listening. For a long time.

I’m Not the Only One Who Feels This Way
————————————————
“You spend so much time with them — their diaries, their families, their Facebook pages, the places they lived — it stops being abstract. You start to care about them like you care about friends and family.”
— Robert Kolker, Lost Girls

“These people were real. They had lives, dreams, flaws. You can’t write about them without starting to feel like you know them — and like you owe them something.”
— Erik Larson, The Devil in the White City

“You get into their heads. You think about them constantly. And when the story’s been so mishandled, you want to tell it the way they’d want it told. It’s not just journalism. It’s a relationship.”
— Dave Cullen, Columbine

“We started out just investigating his case, but over time it felt like I’d known him my whole life. You don’t fight this hard for a stranger.”
— Rabia Chaudry, Serial / Undisclosed

“Proximity is what changes everything. When you sit with someone’s story long enough, you stop seeing them as a ‘case’ and start seeing them as a brother. A son. A person who matters.”
— Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy

“To understand the criminal, you have to understand the victim. You have to walk into their lives, see what they saw, feel what they felt. It’s not just data — it’s empathy that solves cases.”
— John Douglas, Mindhunter


So Let Me Say It Plain:

I didn’t go into this looking for a connection.
I went in looking for truth.

But the more I read, listened, looked — the more I felt him.

Not as a myth.
Not as a rockstar.

As a human being who was failed by almost everyone who should’ve protected him.

And now, I can’t not care.
I can’t not fight.

So no — I didn’t “know” him in the way you mean.
But I’ve given up more for him than most of you ever dared to.

I’ve mortgaged my life.
I’ve walked through hell.
I’ve burned down everything I had, just to bring his voice back from the silence he was left in.
I’ve lost sleep, safety, money, reputation — and I’d do it all again.

So don’t you dare tell me who I can or can’t speak for.

The people who “knew” him had their chance.
They left him behind.
I didn’t.

And if you think you have to shake someone’s hand to care about their death —

You haven’t been paying attention.
