Fresh New Insight to the 1994 Suicide of Kurt Cobain

Seattle police have released two never-before-seen images taken at the scene of Kurt Cobain's death after they announced they were re-examining evidence in the two decade-old case. One of the tragic photographs, which comes from four rolls of undeveloped film stumbled upon last month, shows a small cigar box containing a spoon, possibly with heroin residue on it, needles and a lighter laying on the floor next to a cigarette butt and a pair of dark sunglasses. The second picture shows the box closed, next to cash, a woolly hat and an open wallet that appears to display Cobain's ID. Detective Renee Witt, a spokeswoman for the Seattle Police Department, revealed Thursday that detectives were taking a second look at the circumstances surrounding the Nirvana star's suicide after the new evidence was uncovered. The rolls of film were found in sealed bags by an officer who was going through Cobain's case file ahead of the approaching 20th anniversary of the singer's death. The images are said to detail the scene in sharper detail than the Polaroid pictures used in the original 1994 investigation causing police to review all evidence. However, authorities have stopped short of declaring a full re-opening of the case and police are reluctant to suggest much will come from the new photos.
