Before crime scene cleanup teams are even allowed to begin their work, police investigation teams do a thorough investigation of the scene, bagging and tagging all evidence. However, while providing their scene remediation services, professional technicians are careful to look out for and preserve any potential evidence, especially anything that might be of use to the forensics teams.
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. Emergency response teams arrived at the store in minutes and quickly ordered an ambulance to take the clerk for medical help. The store clerk who was injured was able give detailed descriptions to police detectives. Police were also able review surveillance videotape. Crime Scene Cleanup
After a thorough examination of the crime scene by the CSI team, a professional clean up company, called in by the police, begin to clean the mess left by 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. Apparently, the robber had scratched himself on a metal appendage attached to the counter when he drew his gun.
The discovery was made known to police detectives. Police were notified by one of the cleanup technicians who showed it to them. This company is familiar with identifying and working with police.
The police ran the blood for DNA analysis and compared it to samples they had in storage at 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. Crime scene cleanup is not like janitorial service. Professional biohazard cleaner teams are tasked with eliminating potential hazards from blood and bodily fluids, wherever they happen to land. For this reason alone, these cleanup teams are required to thorough and pay special attention to details. If this is something that makes you proud, the team can help the police with their investigation.
