  • YOU ARE ROOTING FOR A COURTNEY LOVE COME BACK?

    omg, i may have to stop coming here. SHE MURDERED KURT COBAIN! Have you not read the Tom Grant case file?

  • OH THANK YOU FOR ASKING!!!! I hope you come back and see this: http://www.cobaincase.com/

    and check this out: http://www.inmusicwetrust.com/articles/22f02.html
    One thing that Grant discovered was that the leader of the punk band The Mentors, El Duce, whose real name is Eldon Hoke, claimed that Love offered him 50,000 dollars to kill “[her] husband.” Though many would dismiss this as false due to Hoke’s reputation as a lavishly embarrassing rock star, there’s a witness. Karush Sepedjian, who manages the record store where Hoke was working when approached by Love, claims to have heard the conversation. Sepedjian described the conversation on camera in the documentary Kurt and Courtney. “She said to him, ‘Look, can you handle this, can you get this done? What do you want for it?’ They were talking about Kurt Cobain!” To prove the two were telling the truth, Grant paid for each to undergo a lie detector test by Dr. Edward Gelb, considered the top polygraph examiner in the US. According to Gelb, when Hoke was asked the question, “Did Courtney Love ask you to kill Kurt Cobain?,” Hoke’s positive response showed a 99.91 percent certainty that he was telling the truth.

  • Hm, that’s very interesting, but I guess my question is, why didn’t the Seattle PD pursue this case if there were so many signs it wasn’t a suicide? The explanation given in that reading didn’t make a lot of sense to me. I’m disinclined to think the cops would pass up such a high-profile murder investigation if there was even the slightest hint that there was foul play involved, and, if these readings are correct, there was certainly more than the slightest hint (especially that heroin dose).

  • food for thought:
    1. SPD didn’t care about him, he was a scourge/embarassment to the city as he was a junkie, they were glad to be rid of him
    2. as with MOST police departments, there investigating work is shoddy; it was supposed to look like suicide, they didn’t even wait for the lab tests before they held a press conference and announced it was suicide. you look dumb if you go back and change your mind, also with the “copy cat” suicides all across the country ,they *really* couldn’t back peddle.
    3. Courtney Love had friends in SPD. if i think of it later, i’ll link that info.

    for real, the dude didn’t commit suicide. he was divorcing Courtney, she *knew* he was divorcing her, the bitch was involved somehow. i feel it in my bones.
