If Norm Stamper was still chief of police, he says he would reopen the investigation into Kurt Cobain's mysterious death.

A new unauthorized Benjamin Statle-directed documentary called Soaked In Bleach speculates on alternative events that may have led to the Nirvana frontman's death-ruled-suicide, suggesting his wife Courtney Love's involvement.

"We should in fact have taken steps to study patterns involved in the behavior of key individuals who had a motive to see Kurt Cobain dead," Stamper says in the film. "If in fact Kurt Cobain was murdered, as opposed to having committed suicide, and it was possible to learn that, shame on us for not doing that. That was in fact our responsibility."

Stamper was chief of police for the Seattle Police Dept. between 1994 and 2000. Cobain's body was found in April of Stamper's first year in the position.

"I would tell you right now if I were the Chief of Police, I would reopen this investigation," he says when faced with the question of whether or not the initial investigation was thorough enough.

Soaked in Bleach comes out just following the airing of Montage of Heck -- an authorized documentary co-produced by Cobain's daughter, Francis Bean -- on HBO in early May.

While Montage of Heck was publicly embraced by Cobain's widow, Love issued a cease-and-desist order against theaters planning to show Soaked in Bleach, Deadline exclusively reports.

"The Film falsely presents a widely and repeatedly debunked conspiracy theory that accuses Ms. Cobain of orchestrating the death of her husband Kurt Cobain," her attorney wrote in the order. "A false accusation of criminal behavior is defamatory...which entitles Ms. Cobain to both actual and presumed damages."
