Seattle police shuts down rumors on reopening of Kurt Cobain drugged death case

A couple of photos taken at the scene where the late Kurt Cobain of the popular punk band Nirvana died is generating a lot of conflicted reports about the intentions of the Seattle Police Department.

The photos, said Variety, were from a batch of photos developed from four rolls of 35 mm film. The film rolls were developed just last month, and provided a clear visual image of the home where Cobain met his death, law enforcement officials have been quoted telling KIRO 7.

A representative of the Seattle Police Department has confirmed to Variety that they will not be pursuing any investigation in Cobain's death. Cobain died when he was 27 in an apparent suicide, Daily Mail said.

Variety said a 1994 investigation reportedly using photos taken from a Polaroid camera revealed that Cobain died at home on April 8. The singer apparently took a lethal dosage of the drug heroin, according to a coroner's report. One key evidence that led to the conclusion that Cobain took his own life was a suicide note he left at his home.

One of the two photos published by Daily Mail on its report revealed the articles presumably of Cobain's. Cobain's band, who had spurred the Seattle grunge music scene, had a boxful of tools and drug paraphernalia. His sunglasses is spotted on the floor behind the box in the first photo.

variety said the Seattle PD representative explained that a cold case detective had reviewed Cobain's file ahead of the 20th anniversary of his death. The said detective decided to develop the film, which led to the department releasing the photos. Daily Mail, on the other hand, quoted spokeswoman Detective Renee Witt on Thursday, who said that the detectives were taking a second look at the circumstances surrounding Cobain's suicide. On the other hand, the UK tabloid said that the Seattle police did not expressed an intention to fully open the case and that authorities hesitated to suggest that there will be more developments following the release of the photos.
