there are still individuals and media that stand by the claim or rumor that Courtney Love had Kurt Cobain murdered.Individuals who have publicly supported this theory include:Tom Grant: A private investigator hired by Courtney Love to find Cobain after he left rehab. Grant has been a vocal proponent of the murder theory, citing inconsistencies in the official police report. He claims Cobain could not have injected the large amount of heroin found in his system and still have been able to pull the trigger. He also believes the suicide note was doctored and that the lack of legible fingerprints on the shotgun is suspicious. Grant has written books and been featured in documentaries about his theory.
Eldon "El Duce" Hoke: A punk musician who claimed in the documentary Kurt & Courtney that Love offered him $50,000 to kill Cobain. He reportedly passed a polygraph test on this claim. Hoke died a few days after the interview.
Hank Harrison: Courtney Love's estranged father, who has publicly stated his belief that Cobain was killed in a conspiracy organized by Love and has written books about the death.Kim Gordon: A longtime friend of Cobain's from the band Sonic Youth, who in a 2005 interview said she believed he was murdered.Media and other works that have explored or supported this theory include:Kurt & Courtney: A 1998 documentary by Nick Broomfield that investigates the circumstances of Cobain's death and features interviews with individuals who support the murder theory, including Tom Grant and El Duce.Soaked in Bleach: A 2015 docudrama that presents Tom Grant's theories and calls for the Seattle Police Department to re-open the case.Who Killed Kurt Cobain?: A 1998 book by Ian Halperin and Max Wallace, which explores the murder premise, using evidence from Tom Grant and other sources. A follow-up book was also released.
