(Classic Rock) Photos of Kurt Cobain's death scene are to remain unseen after a judge threw out a campaigner's bid to have them released. Richard Lee, who believes the Nirvana frontman was murdered in 1994, rather than having taken his own life, took the city of Seattle to court in an attempt to have the files opened.
