A new forensic report is challenging the official 1994 suicide ruling in Kurt Cobain's death, urging Seattle authorities to reopen the case. The independent review by forensic specialist Brian Burnett and researcher Michelle Wilkins examines autopsy details and crime scene evidence, questioning whether Cobain could have fired the weapon himself.

Published via The Daily Mail, the report cites contested evidence including organ findings that some say align with a heroin overdose. It analyzes blood patterns, hand placement, and paraphernalia at the scene. The King County Medical Examiner's Office maintains it has seen nothing warranting a reopening, while the Seattle Police Department has declined past requests to review the case.

While the report seeks transparency rather than arrests, it marks a significant challenge to the decades-old official ruling. Cobain's death remains officially classified as suicide, but this forensic review adds new scrutiny to one of rock music's most enduring mysteries.
