Before any crime scene cleanup crews can begin work, the police investigation teams conduct a thorough investigation and baggage and tag all evidence. Professional technicians make sure to preserve all evidence and any other relevant information while providing scene remediation services.
After a successful robbery at a convenience store, the robber fled to his car and drove off. The injured clerk, who was bleeding profusely, called the police. The emergency response team arrived quickly at the scene and ordered an ambulance to transport the clerk to the hospital. The injured store clerk was able to give police detectives a detailed description and the police were also able to review surveillance videotape. Death Scene Cleanup
After a thorough investigation of the crime scene by CSI, a professional cleaning company was called by police to clean up the aftermath of the robbery. One of the technicians noticed a tiny speck in the blood as they cleaned the area around the counter. This was something that the police had missed because it was so small. The robber apparently had scratched his head on the counter’s metal appendage when he pulled the gun.
Police detectives were notified of the discovery. One of the cleanup technicians showed it to the police. As this company frequently conducts suicide scene, meth lab, odor removal and other death scene cleanups as well as blood and trauma scene cleanups, they have experience working with police and identifying substances.
The blood was tested for DNA by the police and the samples were compared to those in the county jail. The photo of a previous defendant that matched the one in the video footage from the convenience store was used to identify him. An address for the man was found at the courthouse and the perpetrator was arrested and convicted.
Although this isn’t a common occurrence it is a requirement for trauma scene remediation work. Attention to detail is a primary qualification. It is not the same as janitorial services. The job of professional biohazard cleaners is to eliminate potential hazards from blood and bodily fluids wherever they land. These cleanup teams must be thorough and attentive to all details. If this is something that makes you proud, the team can help the police with their investigation.
