Kurt Cobain's Ashes Stolen

Posted by Michael on June 1, 2008

Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain may no longer be with us, but he's still making the news.  The ashes of Cobain, which were held in his wife's - Courtney Love - possession, were recently stolen from Love's California home.  While some of his remains were scattered in a Buddhist temple in New York and in the Wishkah River in Washington, the rest went to Love. The ashes had been stored in "a pink teddy-bear-shaped bag along with a lock of his hair."  Love has responded to the event in the following manner:

I can't believe anyone would take Kurt's ashes from me... I find it disgusting and right now I'm suicidal... If I don't get them back I don't know what I'll do.
