Un-named sources and Kurt's last days.   Part1

The way in which Kurt's mental state in his last days is portrayed is  suspect.  But these examples are raked up time and again to emphasise that  Kurt was mentally unstable, and that suicide was clearly on the cards.  The  ramifications of the following material support the fact that Kurt was  murdered, please read it all and consider the evidence as to who the real  source behind the myth of "Kurt the suicide candidate", was. 

1) At 7.30 that morning (April 2nd,) Cobain took a taxi into town for  bulletts...after a desultory breakfast and a visit to his heroin dealer,  Cobain spent 6 minutes vainly trying to contact Love at the Beverly Hills  Peninsula. (Sandford,p.325&326).   (A police report mentions this cab ride. Here is the information given to  the police by the superintendent of the Gray Top Cab co, "The driver went to Lake Washington Blvd, on April 2nd at 7.30am.  He picked  up a person who he thought did not match that residence.  He drove around  looking for bulletts, but was unable to find one.  This male told the driver  that he had recently been burgled and needed the bulletts.  At 8.30am, the  driver dropped the man off in the area of 145th and Aurora because he said he  was hungry and wanted to get something to eat.  The mans fare was $27. Sandford therefor omitted to mention that this person was concerned about a  burglary. Kurt told Dylan he wanted the gun for protection against prowlers,  and this report reinforces that on April 2nd, Kurt was concerned about  personal safety/security.  How does Sandford know Kurt went to his dealers?, which dealer?.  The fact  that details on the above mentioned cab ride were requested by Courtney  herself show that she had knowledge of Kurt's movements on April 2nd, at  least to the time of 8.30am. And because Sandford  made no mention of Kurt  speaking to the cab driver about a burglary, indicate that Sandford was only  knowledgable about certain aspects of this cab journey.  I would therefor  think that his source for this information was Courtney or one of her  intermediaries.  This will become clear throughout the articles.   Kurt was hungry and wanted to eat,  maybe Kurt had a really nice breakfast,  why always impose negative overtones to what Kurt was doing?.  If Kurt was in  the state that we are lead to believe, it is unlikely he would have been  thinking about food at all. With regards to Kurt trying to reach Courtney, the Peninsula Hotel denied  that this call ever took place, WKKC?, p.94.)
 
2)  Later that afternoon (of April2nd,) he met a friend on Capitol Hill, gave  her the keys to his Volvo and made a sign to her with his hand, signyfying a  gun held to his head. (Sandford, p.326.) (Here we have an un-named friend and Kurt's mental state highlighted.  The  police report shows Kurt took a cab ride that morning.  Why did he use a cab  co, in the morning, but drive his own car in the afternoon?.   When police arrived at his house on April 8th, it was specifically mentioned  in their report that a Volvo reg, WA lic 175 EYA was in the garage and that  all 4 tyres were flat.  On the assumption that this was Kurt's car, and  according to Sandford Kurt's car did have that registration,  I have to ask  myself why all the tyres flat?.  Could this have been a tactic used by his  murderer/s in an attempt to hinder his mobility?  If the tyres were flat on  the morning of April 2nd, that would explain why he used a taxi.  It would  also mean that the story reported in Sandford's book could not be true. In Melody Maker's April 16th 1994 edition it was reported that, The police are said to have had their last contact with Kurt on April 2nd,  but any report of that incident was not among files (supplied).  So the Seattle police may be witholding an incident report for April 2nd.   Could this be a report by Kurt complaining about his car being vandalised,  and of the burglary he mentioned to the cab driver that very morning?. The fact the police have not made this report available indicates, to me,  that it was probably Kurt complaining to them that something had happened at  the house, and he was concerned about safety. 
3)  April 3rd, Charles Peterson saw Kurt in downtown Seattle and thought him  'gone'. (Sandford, p.326.) But is this really what Peterson thought?.  Here are Peterson's own words,  remembering him after his death, "What sticks in my mind is actually running into him on the street about two  weeks before he, before he killed himself.  And it was just, you know, I  guess in relation to events, I'm glad I did.  I'm glad that I saw him.  We  talked and he,  we exchanged phone numbers and he was like really happy about  my book, my book of photographs that I'm doing.  he was like, 'Alright, at  last, get the real thing!.'  And he was..we chatted and he was concerned  about my wife's illness and just really, you know...that sticks in my  mind."(source, Nirvana, Teen Spirit, A Tribute to Kurt Cobain. Video,  copyright Crystal Alpha.  So Kurt didn't seem depressed and  suicidal here,  then.  Also see Sandford, p.315, where Sandford wrote,  Like many of his close friends, Peterson regrets that  neither Cobain nor his  family told him that he had already tried to kill himself.) 

5) Nobody--at least who is talking officially--saw Kurt after April 2nd, when  neighbours spotted him in the adjacent park, looking forlorn as he sat on a  bench.  It was a warm day, but he was dressed in many layers, as if to  blanket himself against the bitter cold of his reality. (Rossi's Queen of  Noise, p.198.) (Again stress given to Kurt's miserable state of mind because he was dressed  inappropriately for the weather.  This is Kurt we are talking about, the guy  who wore a t-shirt, shirt and cardigan when he performed Unplugged under  studio lights. Also see Broomfield's film where Tracy Marander talks about  Kurt wearing layers of clothing as habit.  To try and use Kurt's choice of  clothing to show his state of mind is ridiculous.)

6) On April 3rd Cobain met a woman names Sara Hoehn on Broadway.  He was in a  foul temper about a report that 40,000 fans had lined the street that morning  to buy tickets for an Eagles concert in L.A,  "We might as well not have  happened," is Hoehn's memory of his words.  (Sandford, p.326.) (Here we finally have a named source who testifies that Kurt was in a foul  mood.  But she went on to give reason, and nowhere does it imply that his  mood is due to anything other than that he was pissed off about the ticket  sales for an Eagles concert.  No mention here of him looking dangerously  drugged or unbalanced.  Would a man purported to be suicidal, be concerned  about the Eagles ticket sales?.  Wouldn't he have been more likely to have  railed about his own personal problems?.  Note, alongside a sighting by John  Silva on this day, these are the last sightings of Kurt alive by people who  knew him.)  Justice for Kurt.  Please make this available to anyone who is interested in  campagning for a new Independent Investigation into the circumstances  surrounding Kurt's death, and who may not have access to the internet.  thanks, Frances Barnett.
