CBS News Logo. Kurt Cobain's death was indeed a suicide, police say. Nearly 20 years after Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain was found dead in his Seattle home, the city's police have re-examined the case - including dozens of photos not seen before. Cobain was 27 at the time.
On the 20th Anniversary of his death, graphic new photos of Kurt Cobainâs body after he committed suicide have been released by the Seattle Police Department. Kurt Cobain was 27-years-old when he shot himself in the head inside the Seattle, Wa. home he shared with his wife, Courtney Love. On April 4, the day before the twentieth anniversary of Kurtâs suicide, the Seattle Police Department released never-before-seen photos of the crime scene. Though none of the pictures show Kurtâs upper body after he shot himself in the head, two photos show parts of his body laying on the floor.
