Courtney phoned the electrical contractors who were working at the Lake Washington Blvd property, and instructed them to start work on the lights and motion detector on the greenhouse .
In hindsight, Grant asked himself if she knew Kurts body was there and was trying to get him discovered? Grant met Courtney at the Peninsula Hotel and offered to go to Seattle , until now he had had a sub-contractor (Ernie Barth) working for him there.
Someone asked Courtney if she would go to Seattle too, she replied "I can't. I have business I have to take care of here".
What could be more important than searching for the husband you claim to be desperately concerned about, and who you claim is suicidal? (Frances Barnett)
Rosemary Carroll told Grant that Courtney had no business in L.A.
According to Grant, Courtney's last words to him were a dramatic "Save the American Icon Tom".
What a disgusting thing to say. What a flippant remark, coming from someone who was supposedly concerned about her supposedly suicidal husband. (Frances Barnett)
Michael DeWitt was seen coming and going from the Lake Washington Blvd house, along with the electrical contractors. Carlson stated that DeWitt called him asking him if he had seen Kurt, (Carlson's interview with the Seattle Police on April 12th 1994).
Grant arrived in Seattle at 11:30 pm. and met up with Kurt's best friend Dylan Carlson. Grant says he asked Carlson if he felt Kurt was suicidal. "No. Not at all. He's under a lot of pressure, but he's handling things pretty good". Grant also asked him if he had ever been told that the Rome incident was a suicide attempt. "No, Kurt said it was just an accident". Carlson also tells Grant that Kurt had been afraid of intruders at the house lately and wanted a gun for protection. Dylan says he bought a shotgun and registered it in his name for Kurt.
Grant wonders if Cobain was so "suicidal" and if he really "tried to kill himself" a month earlier, why no one clued in his best friend, who he hangs out with, to keep an eye on him. Also, wouldn't Courtney want Carlson to make sure Kurt didn't have access to guns?
Grant mentions to Dylan that Courtney told him Kurt only stays at the "best hotels". A puzzled Dylan replies "No, he doesn't. He usually stays in some pretty ratty places".
While driving around Seattle, Grant asks if they should check in with Kurt's monther in Aberdeen. "No, Kurt wouldn't go there. He doesn't get along with his mom" Dylan replies.
By this stage Courtney had finally informed Grant that Kurt was seen at the house on April 2nd. A bit late really.
