Christopher Cobain's Suicide

Improved Essays
When Cobain’s body was found, the police had stated that it was a suicide. They found a suicide note that was penned in red, assumably by Cobain himself. Just about a month ago, the singer had attempted suicide twice. During his tour in Rome, and after returning to Seattle after he had to cancel it. First, it was reported that he had ingested around 50 tranquilizers and downed it all with champagne. Then in Seattle, Love had called the police and told them that Cobain had locked himself in a room with a .38 revolver, threatening to kill himself.

Related to the wire is a coroner’s report of a “thin skin-breaking line across his neck with blood across his Adam’s apple”.…

    After Kaczynski graduated from the University of Michigan, Kaczynski taught at the University of California, but according to Maria Haberfeld, author of A new understanding of terrorism, Haberfeld notes that “Kaczynski continued his pattern of having limited contact with others at Berkeley” (Haberfeld, 2009, 38), which furthered Kaczynski’s isolation patterns.

In the early 1970’s, Ted Kaczynski alienated himself to the wilderness of Montana to live primitively.
