Question
pleeease can you tell me what happened on 5. april 1994.? who actually killed him? i think the man near him helped him in suicide just because kurt didn't want to repeat the thing that happened in rome so he shot him just to be sure his dead.

Answer
Interesting idea of events that transpired.  The same crossed my mind as well, except there are simply too many inconsistencies that point towards murder.  And, why in Rome would he (Kurt) have over 1,000 bucks in cash and a note to give to Courtney which described his feelings and how he thought she felt about him and the fact that a divorce was impending.  With a divorce, she get's half $$$ at best, with him dead, she gets all the $$ and sympathy and her new album was coming out.........who wouldn't buy a new widow's album so to speak.  As Courtney says, "All publicity is good publicity"
After talking to Kurt's Grandfather for the last two years and visiting Seattle, I can't believe that a man who made plans with his grandfather to go fishing and had artistic ideas and was a father to a little girl that made his heart pump........essentially, Kurt was talking positive, looking forward to the future, wasn't as riddled with the back/stomach ailments.....REMEMBER, after Kurt's death, Courtney is the only one who claimed Rome wasn't an accident and really was a suicide attempt. Well, Dr. Galata at the Italy, at the hospital Kurt eventually ended up yet didn't see suicide and is quoting that you can usually tell and that this incident seemed purely accidental....plus, the Dr. didn't' pump 50 plus Rohypinol pills from Kurt's stomach like Courtney Claims.  She paints the worst picture until the public begins to get the truth or question her.  She believes the public is dumb and what she says stands as truth, not fiction, which is complete crap.  I believe Kurt was not alone and only two or three people were with him.  He was given overly=pure heroin, like "China-White" which is powder which can be easily mixed and masked in the Mexican Black Tar Kurt was used to.  China White is almost always above 90% pure, while the Black Tar is at best 50%, and hiding the powder in a black solution would be undetectable with the naked eye and too late after already injected. Kurt probably injected himself first, lapsed into a nodding off state and the other folk(s) injected him in his other arm, hence the two puncture marks found on his dead body, and then someone shot him.  The investigation was biased, rushed, unthorough and just sad.  The Seattle Police Dept. didn't even try.  Leland Cobain, Kurt's grandpa believes dearly that his grandson's life was taken by the hand of another and so do I.  You can read the police reports and after doing so, you begin to realize how sloppy the investigation was and that you can use the reports against themselves for the sake of justice.
Eric Erlandson was at both Kurt's death scene and Kristen Pfaff's .......so, maybe Eric, while Cali was nothing but a leach and equally could have pulled it off.  Put the two guys together and  you might have some people that if they were not involved, Oh, Dylan Carlson too, weren't involved, they sure know a lot and aren't saying because Courtney paid them off with $$$$
