Episode 9: Elliott Smith
from Sinister Hosted by Rosie O'Donoghue
Hello and welcome to Sinister the true crime podcast where we discuss the nitty gritty details of the world’s most notorious crimes and general mysteries. In today's episode we're talking about the tragic, mysterious death of indie rockstar Elliott Smith. In October 2003, Elliott was found with a knife in his chest by his girlfriend, Jennifer Chiba, in their Los Angeles apartment. With a history of supposed suicidal ideations and a tracklist of music with depressing tones, the idea of this being a suicide seemed likely enough for police to avoid all investigation. The coroner classed it as potentially suspicious and deemed the mode of death as undetermined. no drugs or alcohol were found in Elliotts system and he had an arrange of events coming up to live for. Was this just an act Elliott had wanted to do or did someone else decide to kill Elliott and blame a suicide on the rockstar who had lyrics indicating some form of desire to die? The case remains undetermined to this day, but let us discuss our theories anyway. I hope you enjoy this episode. x Rosie O'Donoghue ________ Sinister socials: tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sinister.podcast8 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sinister.podcast/ ________ Music: Epic Unease by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100406 Artist: http://incompetech.com/
